The Club at Osprey Cove

requires every shot in your bag, especially when it's windy and playing blue/blacl

I normally play around Amelia Island. Since its only 40 minutes, we ventured out to check this course out. Enjoyed the day. Great Weather, nice course, excellent staff. Will be back!

We played there twice, the first time we got paired with a single, we were a twosome. The single left us on the second hole and wanted to play by themselves in front of us behind a foursome making us wait on each hole. The second time we were a twosome and kept getting pushed by two singles behind and with a twosome in front of us. No starter the second time so it appears to be out of control for tee starts. The course is in nice condition and enjoyed the layout. However since the groups are all over the place and no ranger we left on the second outing on the fourteenth hole, had enough. Not sure if I would return.

I really liked the course. A little on the pricey side (just under $70). And that was a hot-deal. But, it was part of a golfing trip, so I didn't mind. The carts were kid of new but a little dirty. We were informed at the pro-shop that they were booked full , but t-times were on schedule. Arrived at 1st tee on time, but no starter. Another group showed up at the same time. We offered to let them go ahead of us, but they declined. Our group isn't slow but not in a hurry either. So, from time to time they were pushing us. It's a long course and on a busy day, we played in about 4 hours. Perfectly fine. One criticism. We wanted to play the blue/Grey blended tees. But it seemed like we were always playing the blues. I called the pro-shop. They explained how they do it. Advice for anyone playing this course in the future. Check to find out how it works. Also, I would hope the course would address the issue next time they get new scorecards. 1 last thing. Tees at 18 (par 5) very confusing. On this side of the marsh were the black tees. And from the tips about 500 yards, with a long drive across the marsh to fairway. A good hole for big hitters. There was 3 other tee areas on that side. But the defined tees (blue & gray were on the other side of the marsh, and playing less than 400 yards. Unacceptable for a particular 5. I teed off at the front area and hit over the marsh, which I made the fairway, and eventually parred the hole. It was just confusing.

Much better condition than a lot of courses in Jax right now

The course is win outstanding condition, has a very interesting design, wide fairways, true greens of moderate speed. Bunkers have plenty of sand but also small pebbles. Very playable, not overly hard.

I had the pleasure of playing this week leading up to their member/guest. The staff was very accommodating, and the course is in as good of shape as you could expect for early April. Tee to green the course is in great shape.

What was once a great course has degraded to a low grade public course in a very short time. The bunkers are all mud, not sand. It seems that they have suffered a complete irrigation failure as the grass is brown and dying. Many greens are covered in poa annua with no evidence or any remediation being taken. A couple of the greens also appear to be having sections dying off due to being scalped to tight. There are multiple areas of the course that can best be described as ground under disrepair. The layout is great and the views are great but the playability is very poor at best.

Great course, great condition. Shot my first 72 ever so this course will have a special spot for me.

Nice layout

Wouldn’t recommend walking this course due to very long distances between holes.

Greens very hard and won’t hold an approach shot unless you’re a low handicap

Lots of bunkers on fairways as well as around the greens. Many of them very deep

Not a single ballwasher on the course or on any cart

Didn’t see one trash bin on the course.

This should be addressed.
