Golfer Reviews
Direction problems.
Signs or hole numbers needs to be more visible, and this will prevent slow play.
DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE
This course is too dangerous to play. Right in the middle of one of the worst areas in Jacksonville, you will be entering what it seems to be like a war zone. Gun fire can be heard anywhere on the course, and if you're unlucky enough like I was, you will be shot at just for playing golf. DO NOT GO TO THIS COURSE AND DONT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE EITHER.
cart issue
their new cart policy is off the rail with a surrendering of your DL is way to much . My personal information is in a strangers hands and could be stolen easily as the basket were it is kept is on desk under cart keys. ???
The explanation is plain stupid for this move, and I won't return for this very reason.
Have golfed here many times and have never seen anyone other than fellow golfers driving carts.
WON"T BE BACK
Some kids that didn't belong on the course were trying to steal peoples golf carts they were escorted out. The guys I got teamed up said this has happened before at this course. Just be careful and report anyone not golfing
It was a struggle
I have played this course numerous other times, however today was painstaking, I was behind a foursome as I was a single. I waited many times thinking they would let me play through, wrong answer. I also come up on a gentleman with a disability, I waited patiently as they played their ball , not once, not twice or even three times , finally another gentleman accompanying him told me I could play through. All the while there were 2 players running up my back. After 9 holes I gave up. I don't think I will be back here for a while!
Decent value, but neighborhood is horrific.
It's a strange set up, I'm fairly new to serious golfing so maybe I just haven't seen a course like this before. They did a good job with the space they had available for a 9 hole course.
I'd play there again but I would not stop at the gas stations down the street, or anywhere within like 3mi of this place. I had a lady panhandle me for money, when I refused she made a racial comment, just a lot of run down businesses and unsafe looking areas surrounding it. Don't stop anywhere between there and 95.
Good value for your dollar
The course is in pretty good condition except the greens which with the lack of rain lately is understandable . It certainly is a very affordable course to play . I would recommend it for someone who wants to enjoy playing golf without the high cost involved with many other courses.
Value Golf Not Much More...Value non-the-less
This place is value golfing without question. Great place to practice your game due to the value. Not so much a destination place. However, if your on vacation it's a good course for your first round in order to work out the jet lag (except putting since many of the greens are presently toasted in the sun). The rating is strictly value based with a little bit of "feel good" knowing you support youth golf too.
Awesome for the Money
You can't get a better practice round in anywhere else for the money. The range, chipping green, and putting green was in great shape. Everyone of the employees were friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to sign my girls up for lessons.
good challenge
the course offers me a challenge wish so many workers were not always around feel like I am in the way off the work instead of the reason its done
Great value and fun course
it's a short course, but very fun. It's only 9 holes and then you play it back.
Course is in good shape but,
For a close to home course, the property is in great shape. The pace of play was extremely slow. It seemed like the tee off times were not staggered appropriately. This is the first time I had seen this here. Other times I played pace was fine.
Call and check status.
Played 9 holes, took quick food break. When went back out 15 minutes later, found had a 1st Tee tournament going on, so we had to stop!
Shop attendant said Golf-Now does not really allow getting "rain check" for this type of thing.
So, basically paid for 18 holes, but only played 9.
Note that when checked in, nobody said anything about the tournament happening.
Excellent cour at an excellente value
Fantastic place to get out there for a no pressure, fun round.
Good value and even better staff helpgulness
Admittedly I am not remotely a great golfer, but from where I come from this is a nice course, good practice facilities, friendly staff and great value in my opinion
Nice Round of Golf
Played Golf on New Year's Eve. Nice day. Greens were good. A lot of people playing so felt rushed by other behind us. Not the fault of the course though. Will definitely will be back.
It used to be an 18 hole public course, but it was sold to a private owner to avoid integrating (allowing African Americans to play) during the 1960s. In the 1970s, the course was sold to the city to build a school and as a result half of the course was torn down. https://www.brentwoodgolfcourse.com/brief-course-history/
