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.

Much improved!
They did a great job refurbishing the course.
Looks and plays great!
Greens rolled beautifully!
Nice new carts with GPS!
I’ll be back!
Fantastic improvements. Very slow pace
The course is beautiful! They did a fantastic job!! Pace is very slow!! Lots of walkers. 4 hours and 40 min two players, 18 holes. I think we’ll wait for the newness to wear off before playing there again. Too crowded! Too slow! They need the rangers out there making sure everyone is playing at a good pace
Redesigned and top notch
Worth the 9 mo wait - Tee boxes, fairways and greens are pristine. Even the carts are better! Greens are very fast but fair. Only neg is that with the popularity the pace of play has slowed - pretty much knew that’d be the case when I arrived to a packed parking lot.
Updated Course
This course is really nice, great improvement!
1st week open. Love the GPS carts but all the flags are white and there was no pin placement chart, so it was hard to know where the pin was on the green. Also don't plan on using your own GPS watch the new lay out is not updated yet.
Overall I was super happy with this course, Great work!!
Huge improvement
The new course design is really nice! They really did a fantastic job on the new layout. Im excited for our municipal course to be open again! The new carts are awesome! GPS in all carts!!! I was disappointed that the restrooms were not renovated.
Getting Better All the Time
The course is constantly improving from where it was just a couple years ago. Currently it is closed until September of 2018 for what they say will be a major renovation.
Getting there
It a nice layout they were closeting for remodeling fixing the greens. Making the course a little more challenging
great little course
I played this course in the freezing rain, and it didnt matter! The greens rolled true, and the fairways allowed the ball to roll as it should. enough water and sand traps to keep it entertaining, but not frustrate. Precise shot placement will be rewarded, but it is a bit forgiving as well. This is a great course and better than most that charge higher. Staff was super nice! will definately play again if i am in the area, especially if the weather is sunny
Closing for renovation
Pro shop told me course would be closed 1/15/18 thru 9/18 for renovations. Need I say more?
Hard To Believe !
The course is in the best condition it's been in for several years so they're going to spend millions closing the course, tearing it up and redesigning the holes. All they need is a new irrigation system and some minor alterations to existing holes.
Changes to come
Enjoyed my round on a perfect day. Greens are much improved though It won't matter because according to most, they will be replaced starting in January.. Staff was friendly and helpful as usual. Nice layout and being so near the beach is always a bonus. BTW, I'm still looking for that course one reviewer said he could play in less than 3 hours.!!
Slow time at Jax Beach GC
Dunno if it’s that fall is now here but never expected Monday golf to be so busy. Seemed to be two sometimes three groups on each hole.
I appreciate a muni course and willingly deal with less than pristine conditions (although they are improving here) but I can’t deal with 5 hour golf when there are other options around at under 3.
Maintenance Needed
This could be a super course, the layout is good, but the condition has been poor for a number of years. I understand there will be major upgrades next year and I look forward to playing there after they are complete. One of the great things about this course is that it is easily walked and that is often hard to find in Florida, sadly.
Getting better
been playing here 4 months now and the course has improved - rough no longer crazy deep and fairways are acceptable
Staff is incredible as are the beer girls. Some 150 yd posts would be great.
Enjoyed the round. Staff very friendly. Course nice. Good value for the money.
