The Champion Turf Club at St. James

Here visiting family, wanted to get in another 18 holes before heading back north...I'd like to start by saying this course saw some good amount of rain right before I arrived at course, so I knew I had to deal with some potential sloppy areas on course. I reserved a tee time on line...very reasonable rates $30-$35 for 18 and a cart...and I grabbed a bucket of balls( $4 )for the range to warm up a bit....I teamed up with another single player down here from Toronto - Dennis (nice guy)....I will say the course is mostly open, lots of room to let it rip, with little fear of losing balls. The bunker placements, near the greens is where you'll find this course challenging. The flag placements made for some tough decisions. The tee boxes were in good shape, fairways were decent as well, and the greens were in terrific shape....Apparently they just renovated this course recently, paying special attention to the greens, and it showed...very fast greens, even after substantial rains prior to playing...Overall, the course still needs some extra care in rough areas and outskirts of fairways...and I was told they plan on doing much more work to better the course in the coming months/year....I would certainly recommend this course to anyone seeking a decent course, that's challenging, has great greens with reasonable rates...4 star course.

I was very pleased to return to the Course and see what improvements they have made to it. Even my guests that came with me told me this is a good course. I've been there three times this month and I enjoyed myself every time. Unfortunately it was a little wet but I know as soon as the course dries up it will be a champions Course overall.I would definitely recommend it if you want a challenge staff is great conditions are really good overall four and a half stars good job guys

Have played course off and on for years, has never been so nice. Great shape, but it is the greens that were the best!! May be the best greens in Saint Lucie County! The only negative is the plop johns on the course.

Played early in morning got right around course. New greens are Awesome!!! Collars have been redone, sandbunkers have been refurbished, and fairways are nice and blush now. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Very reasonably priced for all golfers!!
