A Gem !!

Wow, what can I say? Beautiful layout with beautiful huge greens. They roll really fast and a lot of curves in them so never straight putts… Conditions are excellent! In this time of year, the fairways are perfect. Greens are perfect.

I’ll be back for sure!! to replay this beautiful South Course or to try the other 18 hole ; The North Course.

Course in great shape, couldn't figure out green speed/slopes so that contributed to many 3 putts. Will be back!

Used cart

really cold and wet when we played which was unfortunate and nothing can be done about that. What bummed us out was that we were unaware a hole on course was closed for construction and there was no discount rate for this which I thought was weird.. we had drove 90 minutes to play it and are from out of town so we didnt really want to go somewhere else. beautiful course, I would love to play it again when its warm and dry!

Beautiful layout

What a gorgeous layout. Lake Jovita South course is open and still it makes you think your way around. The first four holes seem straight forward but be carful. The 9th and 18tg holes are bracketed by a beautiful lake. Fairways have been over seeded and are lush. The greens are lightning fast. It’s a little on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. We are staying on the property for a month and have played the course a handful of times. Definitely a place you will want to play if you are within an hour of the course.

Pay up to play a nice course

It’s a little pricey to play here, but worth it. The North course has some really nice holes that are really framed well with the terrain. The greens are very fast and sometimes they can put the hole I some unfriendly spots.

Don’t play more yardage than you normally play because you won’t always be able to hit driver off of the tee box.

Corse conditions

I travel from Ky with family to play early January every year. Course layouts are great. Course conditions typically very good. Bunkers could use some work. Fees not an issue but would like to see some discount considering we play 36 holes each day. Staff is very good. Villas are great. Looking forward to next visit.

Awful pace

Course is improving a little more. Good tee boxes. Great greens and fairways. Didn’t love that 16 on the north was playing basically as a par 3.

Biggest issue was that it was a 5 hour round. At $150, I’d expect top notch everything - including a ranger moving the pace along.

Nice course

Very nice course, but! There is only one bathroom on the course, first time playing this course, there are no pics on the score card showing anything nor is there nothing at the tee boxes either, so if your playing this course for the first time you are playing blind. There is also not one ball washer on the course. This needs to change. The greens were very nice and lightening fast.
