Fleming Island Golf Club

I last played Fleming Island pre-Covid. It was kind of a dust bowl at the time and I hadn't been back till yesterday. What a difference. Fairways were excellent, just 1 green with sand in recovery mode, extremely frieldly and helpful starter.

What really made the day playing as a single was the group behind coming up on the 3rd hole and inviting me to play with them. Great bunch and let me know they had a seni9or game at 10 week days.

Definitely will be back.

it jus happen to be the hottest day of the week.. but the first 3 holes I was off the fairway, and it was deep, so that was the wake up. stay in the fairway. after that I got better . the greens are like carpet, absolutely fantastic. had a great time. would play again.

My 1st time playing this course. It was in excellent condition. Greens were a little slow but not surprising for this heat. Fairways and rough were very nice. Will definitely come back again.

Unless the weather has been crazy Fleming is always in about as good shape as you can find for a public course that gets so much play. A favorite for a reason.

Great condition and layout, great deal on golf now!!

Awful staff. If the members don’t like your pace of play they call the PGA pro there to complain. Avoid this course!!

One of the best conditioned courses in Jax area right now. Would definitely play again. The only thing to say was pace of play. 4hr 45 min round was a little slow but not awful. But when rounds get close to 5 hrs then it gets a little annoying - and we definitely saw a ranger come by 2-3 times checking on groups. I guess we were just behind a slow group that didn’t pay attention to people behind them - especially since they weren’t waiting on anyone all day in front of them like we were. The only thing I didn’t love about the course was one hole on back nine where there’s a short par 4 that’s drivable and the tee box is right in the bailout area. Sure enough, once we got on the tee box a ball flew right over our heads and landed right in the box. Then a second one landed 20 ft away. Not the safest design. It needs a protective net barrier for sure. Definitely a danger zone. If guy yelled fore, you couldn’t hear it because of distance. Other than that the course itself was in excellent shape.

Was at the beach on vacation and my father-in-law and I went out to play Flemming Island. It was a nice place, although I was expecting a little bit better conditions considering it is the only public course in the Jacksonville area with a 5 Star rating.

The conditions of the course were not bad, but they would not be what I consider 5 star. The greens were very good and the fairways were also in good shape. Although there was some weeds on the tee boxes and in the rough, it wasn’t bad. I would give the conditions 4 stars.

Pace of play was the biggest issue. We were the third twosome in a row behind a foursome and the foursome really slowed us all down a good bit. We sat on the last 11 tee boxes for a good while and even joined up with a single behind us.

I did appreciate having a beverage cart and water stations at the clubhouse and on the course.

The layout wasn’t bad, although the back nine really gets tight in comparison to the front nine. It looks to play a lot shorter on the back, but it mostly due to having 3 par threes on the back.

All in all this is a place that is worth playing especially if you can get a tee time for under $50. It is totally worth that to play here. Get out, have fun, and go low. Enjoy your round at Flemming Island!

I play Fleming a lot...had a great time...course was in great shape....no hold ups....the staff is always great...I highly recommend to all to try it....
