The Golf Club at South Hampton was designed to give every golfer appropriate risk-and-reward opportunities that supply both encouragement to beginners and challenges for more advanced players. The slope and contour of the course’s landscape is its trademark with strategic mounding and over 60 contoured bunkers that emphasize the terrain’s natural undulations. The course features rolling fairways and massive greens. There are also sixteen large lakes that come into play throughout. The signature hole is the tremendous par-5, 17th, which is a scenic hole that features a lake, fairway bunkers, and a breaking green. Although the course is a challenge, there are six sets of tees to accommodate all skill levels.

First Time Playing

Great value but needs work

Great staff and course layout. Challenging and forgiving holes. The greens are simply in bad shape and detracted from the quality of play. If you know what going on it will be easier to accept when you putt a ball and it's gets stopped in sand or it jumps 2ft sideways because it rolled over clumps. One they get the greens figured out this will be a tough course to not play frequently.

Needs work

Played this course some years back and loved the layout and moderate challenge. Course was in great shape but fast forward to today. Course was is in horrible shape from tee boxes to greens. From a distance the greens look good but when you get there, you realize they're painted with huge bare spots. Impossible to putt. Sad to say we'll not be going back anytime soon until improvements have been made to this one awesome course.

Tell us course conditions

Turns out the greens are being replaced soon. The round was spoiled by the condition of the greens. I have played on several types ofgrass but never crabgrass!

Always good to golf just not as enjoyable with greens such as these.

Horrible conditions

This has to be the worse shape I’ve ever seen of a course. It’s been in desperate need of an overhaul on every green. They have had a fungicide problem apparently for over a year and just need to shut it down and rip it out. I paid $50 and was very disappointed to say the least.

Good Course - Needs Maintenance

Have played this course many times over the years. Probably in its worst shape I've ever seen it in spots. Some greens were simply unable to be putted in spots. Does appear they are working on it, but it was rough in spots. I would still book it again, but don't pay top dollar for it right now.

Greens need work

I've played South Hampton many times when I lived in Jax. I recently came down to Jacksonville to visit old friends of mine and decided to play South Hampton. Very disappointed on how the greens were. Not just one but almost every single green was in very bad shape. So bad that after a while we decided on a 2-putt max. It will be a while before I come back and play here.

Not on my list of recommended courses presently.

Tee boxes are a bit rough but not as bad as the greens are. This course looks like it’s in a perpetual phase of rebuilding lately. Not the course it once was. No where near the price during peek hours for the shape of the course. Hoping it is rehabbed quickly back to the shape it used to be in. I would avoid this course for the cost.

Course in horrible condition

We played this course 4/18. The course is in horrible condition and the greens are even worse. There was nothing online stating the course was being worked on or anything. It was $80 for a round. Complete rip off.

Some good some bad

Tees and fairways were excellent. As is the case in Florida this time of the year greens were in transition. Very uneven and bumpy.
