Royal St. Augustine Golf and Country Club
About
Located in Florida’s oldest city, Royal St. Augustine Golf & Country Club offers a glimpse of the area’s lush foliage and native marshlands. The course has a visually interesting layout with elevated, sprawling greens and a variety of bunker shapes and sizes. The moguled fairways and sandy waste areas are two other distinguishing features of the course. It is a tight course with large greens and gentle undulations. The layout provides a “target-golf” experience that puts a premium on accuracy and distance control. The numerous bends in the course in combination with the blustery winds also makes proper club selection very important.

Getting better
The course is rough but is definitely improving The rough needs to be cut but the greens are really good. Need to get the rest back on track again Played Sunday morning in 3 hours

Course has gone downhill
I was surprised making a tee time in a Saturday that almost the whole day was wide open. Once in the course it was evident why. Course is in rough shape, bad tee boxes, fairways littered with weeds and putting greens had tone of dead spots. Not sure what happened as it used to be a pretty gorgeous golf course. Until they put some back into the course, I would pass

Going down fast.
Had not played here in a few years and thought it was just a great deal on GolfNow… I was wrong. Greens were horrible, fairways not lined properly and tee boxes were awful. Waste of money, and word isn’t out yet.

Fair for the price!
We almost didn’t go because of the other reviews but had to check it out as it used to be a great course! Second time playing Royal this month, You get what you pay for! If you want a full 18 under $40 on a challenging course with some fun hazards it’s worth it. Fairways could be in better shape but again, this is a $39 round! The greens definitely beat South Hampton. Staff is very friendly and pace of play is usually decent!
We apologize if the course conditions were not up to your expectations, but we appreciate you giving us a chance and recognizing the value of our affordable rates and challenging course. Thank you for your kind words about our staff and the pace of play.

WOW, I heard about this course many times and decided to give it a shot. Being a Lefty with a MEAN POWER FADE This course ate my lunch but as long as I kept it in the fairway it was not too bad :) Conditions could use some improvement. (CUT THE DANG GRASS). Let's just say the Course Record is Still Intact. The best part of the whole day was the 19th hole. My friends and I enjoyed the food and the Margaritas put together by the friendliest Young Ladies behind a Bar. FIVE STARS ***** I did get a Photo of one of the Young Ladies but never got one of the Blonde Haired young lady who said she was 30-something but she could not have been over 29. Great Time, See ya'll again Soon!!
We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you had an enjoyable time at our course, especially at the 19th hole. We apologize if the conditions of the course did not meet your expectations. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Rough very overgrown
The 1st cut off fairways was usually un playable 2 ft high rough. Lost 8 balls!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for the unplayable rough you encountered. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to improve our course conditions.
Great round!
Course could use some improvements but overall in good shape. Glad I didn’t read into some of those other reviews. After playing here a few years ago and really enjoyed so decided to ignore the reviews and proved to be a good decision. Greens were good not great, tee boxes were okay, fairways were great, second cut was a little furry, the the staff was friendly. Definitely will be back.
We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed your overall experience at our course.

Cheap and not in good shape
Course was in incredibly rough shape. Weeds growing in the fairway, and tee boxes were more dirt than grass.
We are sorry to hear that you found our course in rough shape with weeds in the fairway and tee boxes that were mostly dirt. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. Thank you.
Need a better grounds keeper
Some of the greens had fungus. Some greens were half dead or dying. Lots of weeds in the fairways and around greens. I've played there many times and this is a s bad as I have seen the course be in.
We apologize for the condition of some of our greens and the presence of weeds in the fairways and around the greens. We appreciate your feedback and will address these issues promptly. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Poor conditions.
Course has gone downhill in maintenance since last time we played here tee boxes shoddy fairways look like crabgrass and an old cow pasture mixed. Needs a revamped on course conditions. Fairway bunkers flooded other than that for the price wasn't worth the trip. Was running late and couldn't get thru to clubhouse by phone as tried to call for hour to let them know would be there. Seriously not worth the time.
We apologize for the poor course conditions during your visit and the inconvenience you experienced with our phone lines. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as we work towards improving our course maintenance and communication. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Surprising
Never sure what type of condition you’ll find it but what a surprise. Greens were surprisingly very good which was a big surprise since past experiences have been very disappointing where they were basically unputtable. Fairways were very good as well. The course is extremely tight so hit it straight. In the rough and or just off the fairway you’ll need a search party at times.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any negative experiences you may have had in the past. We are glad to hear that you found the greens and fairways to be in good condition during your recent visit. We will continue to work on maintaining the course and we hope to provide you with an even better experience in the future.

Hot Summer Round
Blazing hot summer conditions. Course in fair to good shape, and pace of play was quick to get out of the heat. RSA layout always a challenge, bring plenty of golf balls.
Thank you for visiting us at Royal St. Augustine Golf and Country Club. We appreciate your positive rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Worst course conditions I have ever seen.
Very disappointed in the conditions of the course. We walked on, so we paid a premium, and it was not really, not at all, worth the price we paid. Tee boxes were overgrown, or patchy or both. Greens were in horrible shape. There is no cart service. I have played royal St. Augustine, many times over the years, and though it’s not my favorite course, as it’s not, very forgiving, I’ve always come back to it. But this may be the last time I played. At least for a while. Very disappointing.
I'm sorry to hear about your disappointment with the conditions of the course during your visit. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We appreciate your continued support and hope to have the opportunity to improve your experience in the future.
We would love to hear more about your experience on our course. Thanks for golfing at Royal St. Augustine Golf and Country Club!
