Jacksonville Beach Golf Club
About
The newly revamped Jacksonville Beach Golf Club, built in 1959, is one of the only public access courses on Jacksonville's Beaches. The golf course was originally designed by Sam Snead.
The changes at Jacksonville Beach Golf Club began with the rebuilding and modernizing of more than half the greens on the golf course, along with some new bunkers and bulkheads to add to the already beautiful look.
The 18-hole golf course measures 6,510 yards from the longest tees for a par of 72. The course rating is 71.9, with a slope rating of 126.

Not bad for money
They have 9 hole rates which is a plus. Course is in need of some TLC. They overcharged me so watch your wallet.
every hole is challenging
today was great for golf this course was challenging from hole one gotta hit flag but greens hard to hold I shot good round
Lost so many balls
The course has a nice layout, but there is a lot of water and the rough will not hold your ball. Had several rollers on the fairway that kept going into the "rough" which meant right down the slope into the water. I lost more golf balls here than I can ever remember losing in one round. Greens are in rough shape, but it is winter. Staff was nice. I'll go back.
great value
the course needs some work but it was much better than last year. The layout is challenging. The price is unbeatable, so this is a good reason alone to play here.
Relatively speaking it is a bargain to play. It is fairly open and windy
Hans was insanely rude
Hans accused me of trying to play 9 for free. Once I showed the receipt he quickly back tracked and acted like he didn't say was gonna call the city manager on me. What a goofball.
Jax Beach Recovery
Jax Beach golf course has had major problems with their greens, but they have improved significantly over the past few months.
Fun Course.
Fun course. Trouble is avoidable if you play smart. For the convenience, price, it's a great place to play.
great staff
The employees here are really great! Very nice, friendly and considerate as they put us out early to get ahead of a group so that we played in slightly more than 3 hours.
Thank you! We are pleased to hear it. Hope to see you again soon!
Dead greens
Many of the greens have been lost due to fungus or mold. It will be months before they are back in pristine shape. Providing the greens keeper can do a better job of fixing what he let get away from him!!!
Thank you for the review. We are working on improving the conditions of our course and appreciate your feedback. Please come back in the future for another round!
Worst condition of greens and fairways I have ever seen
Course is terrible shape. No grass on greens throughout all holes. fairways not mowed and bare. Course is in terrible condition just 1 year after spending mucho dollars to upgrade. Do Not Recommend anyone waste that amount of tee time price for such a horrific round of golf! BuilderBob
Hi "builderbob4" we apologize that the course conditions were not up to your standards. We are working diligently to get the course back to normal great conditions. Thank you for coming out to play.
good layout/ horrible condition
Had an appointment cancel at last minute so I looked to see what was available with little time. This proved to be a big mistake. I had not played this course in several years, when the condition was pretty decent. Things have changed dramatically. This course does not qualify for a goat track or cow pasture. Both have grass!! If it were not for the dollar weed and every other kind of weed, I doubt you would see anything green. No wonder there were few golfers on the course.
I can honestly say that this probably rates as the worse conditioned course I have ever played. too bad because the layout is pretty good.
Hi "algrant1." We are so sorry to hear that the conditions of our course did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback as we are constantly trying to improve the conditions of our course. Thank you for playing with us and we hope you come back as we are working in efforts to satisfy our golfers.
BJOKC
No pride in this course. Greens were terrible, fairways lacked attention, mosquitos everywhere!!! I enjoy playing a variety of courses when I travel but will not return or recommend this course.
Hey "bjhall9393" we apologize that you were not satisfied with the course conditions. We can assure that you that we are always working to better the course to provide that ultimate golfing experience. We appreciate you coming out and playing!
Horrible Greens
The so called greens were horrible. They were painted green and were just sand. It was almost like you were putting on the cart path.
Hey "ncriswell" we apologize that the greens were not up to your standards. We appreciate the feedback as we are always working to improve. Hopefully you will come out and see us again soon.
Course in bad shape.
It was a good thing that we got a good deal on this course. I had not played this course in a while. When a friend of mine suggested this was because of the price he found on Golfnow, I said OK we will give it a chance. If I had paid full price, I would have asked for a refund. Greens were all top dressed with the blue/green fertilizer mix. Surprisingly they did roll better than expected. Weeds everywhere. The boxes were 50% sand covered. Very difficult to play
Hey "dhilde7165" we are sorry the conditions disappointed you and can assure you we are doing everything we can to get back to normal great conditions. Thank you for coming out to play and providing your feedback!
Vietnam
This course was horrible and looked like a war zone. I wouldn't recommend this course to anybody. Waste of time and money.
Hi "edgarvesce" thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We apologize that you did not enjoy your time out on the course. We are working incredibly hard to get the course back into awesome shape!
Course was in terrible shape
Check-in staff was a bit rude. The course was in the worst shape I have ever seen it in. Tee boxes were very sandy and we could not get good footing at all. The fairways were in horrible shape. It's not much fun when you hit your tee shot right down the center and don't have any grass to hit from. There was green stuff in the fairways, but not much of it was grass. And underneath was nothing but sand. The greens were rough and inconsistent. I have played much nicer courses in town recently for half the price. We won't be coming back here any time soon.
Hi "pbureau99" we do apologize that you were not satisfied with the course conditions and you did not have a pleasurable experience with one of our staff members. If you can, please email us at jacksonvillebeachgc@gmail.com
and give us some more details about your experience.
Greens are terrible!!!

Hey "pnickas1" we do apologize that you did not like the condition of the greens. If you can, please send us an email to jacksonvillebeachgc@gmail.com

Lots of Variety
Jacksonville Beach Golf Club offers every level of golfer a fun challenge. It has an interesting mix of holes from a relaxing par 3 to Pete Dye type water holes. Accuracy is a factor on many of the shots, but there is always a "safe" shot if you want it. The course's greens are over seeded and have some winter kill, but overall, they put true with subtle breaks. Well worth the value for location, costs and friendly staff.
So happy to hear you enjoyed every part of your Jacksonville Beach Golf experience! We look forward to seeing you back again soon. Thank you for coming out to play and providing your feedback!
if you like water this is the course for you.
14 of the 18 holes have water. Course was in good condition. Staff was very friendly.
We're glad you enjoyed the course! Hope to see you back very soon!
I've been playing this course for years and found Hans and the staff to be nothing but cordial and helpful. I'm sure this was just a misunderstanding.
