Golfer Reviews
Didn’t even get to play!
Booked a tee time and after driving more than an hour to the course, was turned away because the course didn’t update GolfNow to reflect there was actually no availability. Drove more than an hour, on Thanksgiving Day, had to pay in advance, and got turned away.
Course looks amazing in photos - just can’t review much more than the “experience” of their booking error.
Fun track if you’re in the area.
Played Osprey Cove yesterday early afternoon. Pace of play was good, played in 4 hrs and didn’t really wait.
It’s an open course with a few narrow spots, but not many. Some marsh and water along side a few holes but plenty of room to play. Course conditions were pretty good, greens were nice and fairways good. Tees were a little worn from play I would guess. A few very scenic holes along the marsh to break things up.
Staff very nice with no issues. I wouldn’t go too far out of my way to play but if you’re fairly close it’s a fun , fair course that’s worth the GolfNow price..
I’d play it again if in the area.
2 for 2
Second time playing this course and it lived up to the first impression the first time I played in April. I highly recommend this course, and I will definitely play here again. To the Osprey Cove staff inside and outside keep up the good work.
Cheap Tee Time for a Reason
The $48 rate is because you’re directly after the women’s group. Everything else was great but the rate was “good good to be true.”
What All Development Course Should Be
Without question Osprey Cove is the best course in the North Jacksonville area. It is as good if not better than the high priced courses on Amelia Island and parts of coastal Georgia. Tough to choose between Osprey Cove and the Lakes Course at the Walker State Park in Waycross GA., but the edge goes to Osprey Cove due to proximity, at 1/3 the driving time.
Love this golf course
I love this golf course. I live 50 miles away and tee times are only available in the afternoon but I still try to come play it at least once a month. Fortunately in the afternoon there aren't a lot of golfers playing. The members usually play in the morning. The course is always well maintained. The practice areas are excellent as well. So please don't come....I want this gem to myself..
Golf round 10/24/2024
Although the greens were punched earlier in the week it did not affect putting. fairways in great shape. Cart paths could use a little attention as spots were very bumpy. Overall had a great time and met some local residents that played with us for several holes.
Fair Course
Golf course is set up fair for all levels! Great greens, fair pin placements, open fairways with challenges (water, trees). Nice layout . My first play on a McCumber design, really liked it!!!
Good course, needs updating though.
Great course! Need to update carts, need a beer cart, 13$ for a hotdog and fries, needs to fix the cart path and the tee marker need to be changed to something less confusing. We had a great time though. Greens were excellent staff was friendly and helpful. Starter Bill very helpful. We will definitely play again.
Great layout and vourse conditions .
Staff were friendly, started on-time and phase was great facilitated by the overall excellent playable conditions and no cart path only restrictions.
