Great course on a Hot, day.

I had a 7:51 tee time, but went out at 7:15. Only one other group, a twosome, a few holes ahead of me, on the course. As others have noted the course was over seeded, so cart path only. Found it strange that there were so few golfers, a lot of open tee times. I liked the layout a lot. It was in very good condition, not too wet, the greens and sand traps are in excellent shape. It looks from the tees to be much more challenging, but it has generous landing areas. Played in less than 3 hours which would have been just over 2, except for the draw/hook that had me always on the side of the fairway away from the cart path. Give it a try.

Excellent better than I expected for a resort location

Will play again. Feel of a private club. Staff excellent
Plays pretty long from the blacks no roll in lush fairways but they are great to hit from.

Name says it all

Great course in excellent shape from tee to green on every hole. Great layout, sure to present a challenge for all level of golfers. Weather was terrific, and paired with three others that help make the round even more enjoyable. Thanks GolfNow for this great deal.

Very slow

cart path only due to overseeding, and pace of play reduced because of it, led to a less than acceptable day of golf.

Excellent experience

The course was just over seeded, but the fairways were still nice and tight. The greens were like glass, lighting fast. The staff were all super nice. I had a great time. I still suck though.

Not worth the money! You would be better off going to one of the other local courses.

Great experience

We had all day to find a way to kill some time before flying back home and decided to play this course, especially since golfnow provided a hot deal.
We even asked for maybe a move up in tee times to allow more time before flight and they more than happy to do that as a couple of groups canceled.
The course was in excellent shape and we both had some highlights to talk about.
The staff was extremely courteous and would definitely go back, if I had the opportunity again.

Nice Course Golfnow needs to provide better info

Course and staff were great. But got there and course was over seeded and my guest with a handicap flag could not even drive in rough. Made play very difficult and would not have gone had we known. Golfnow should provide that information at time of booking. Also, a junior tournament was happening which made pace of play 2:45 for 9 holes. Quit after 9 and took a rain check which they graciously allowed.

One of the best courses in the JAX Area

The only reason, i didn`t rate 5 Stars: Since the course was overseeded, we could not drive to our balls. And there is construction work along some fairways. The course condition is top, the Greens are fast, close to perfect.

Overvalued

Beautiful, albeit windy Fall day. Played as single, card/cart/tee box have no diagrams or yardage, although plenty of sprinklers with info in fairways. Generous fairways - more than you think from tee, just aim for/over poles in fairways - it helps if you can work ball both ways. Big greens - they had recently been punched/sanded, and were slow/bumpy. Water really doesn't come into play for good players, but may for shorter/crooked drivers. Due to recent heavy rainfall, fairways somewhat burnt/bare, got little roll with drives, ball picked up mud. Overall, a typical Fla course, but not worth the premium greens fee they charge. If you have choice, play Slammer & Squire - on WGV site, just as challenging, less $$.

King And Bear

Great golf course Very enjoyable. Was paired with a good golfer that had played the course below and that really helped. Course was in great shape. Very well manicured course and greens roll great. I would say this is a must if you are in the St. Augustine area.

Midweek round

Had a great day of golf. This was the first time I walked through the clubhouse, wow it is beautiful. The course has been in great condition each time I have played and this time was no different. In spite of heavy rains here recently the course was well kept . the greens rolled true and the fairways were beautiful. It does play much longer with very little roll. I look forward to my next round out here with Jack and Arnie.

WET!

I normally love the course, but right now the course is soaked. Cart path only and saturated. Mud and water flying everywhere when hitting from fairway. There also was a fivesom in front of us for a little that did not ask us to play through so we skipped a hole. Not my best outing there.
