One of Jacksonville's Best!!!

I play all over the area and you into GA /Sc. The Yards is one of the best courses in the area and my go to on most days. You have to try if you're in the area.

The perfect place to work on your game

This is a perfect place to work on your game or just walk 9 holes. With allot of courses discouraging walking it's nice to have a place that openly welcomes walkers. The course itself is in really good condition and the green complexes are some of the best of the public courses in the area. They have a large putting green and a par 3 course in the back yard that I haven't played but looks fun. You have to try this place when in the area.

Great course!!! Not friendly to walkers though.

First off, I love this golf course. If you're in the area, it's a must play. Usually in great condition, good pace of play. However, it is a membership course and they don't have an issue letting you know you are their guest. I like to walk on occasion and can keep up with any group I'm paired with whether their walking or riding. In the past I've played at 1pm with some of the members, and it's never been an issue whether I'm a member or not. However on my last visit I was informed that to keep the optics up, I wasn't allowed to walk until after 3pm. No worries, I guess when I walk I'll find a more flexible course. The easy fix would be to just become a member, but unfortunately as a Navy Veteran I'm not fortunate enough to be in position to do that. Great course again, just wish more courses would not only allow but encourage walking.

Hidden gem

I made the drive from Jacksonville to play here and will do so frequently in the future.

Awesome staff, gentleman in the pro shop made sure I knew where everything was and was very helpful and I truly appreciated his assistance.

The course was immaculate, loved the layout, I kinda played a mixture of blue/white tees. The green complexes were consistent and at a good pace. Not fast by any means, but neither slow either.

I really liked this course and I'll try and play and least a couple times a month for as long as I can. But I'm afraid, once they finish building out with new homes it may be a private community.

This is a must play in the Amelia Island area.

I love this golf course. I drive regulary from Jacksonville to play here. From the cart staff that greets you upon arrival to the always friendly starters to get you paired up and on your way, it's always a great experience. I typically play as a single and have always been paired with some of the nicest people everytime. The course is always in great shape and the greens are typically some of the best of the public access courses in the area. The layout is challenging and fun for all skill levels. Trouble looms on most holes on either side or both in some cases. Bring a few extra balls, play the appropriate tee boxes and you'll have a very enjoyable round.

Becoming my favorite course in the area.

I drive from Jacksonville to play this course art least once a week. Very good condition from tree to green. Great layout that's challenging for all skill levels. If you're here on vacation or business, you have to play at least one round here but you'll most likely get another in before you go. Yes, it's that nice.

Great course, very slow pace of play.

What happened to Rangers roaming the course ensuring everyone stays on a 4hr pace? This course was in great shape, fairways were excellent, greens were excellent the whole course was in awesome shape. Hats off to the superintendent. But as I mentioned earlier the pace of play was horrible. 6hrs to play 18 holes? C'mon folks, you're not going on tour and there's no trophy at the end so let's pick up the pace of play. If you find yourself at 2hours 15 min at the turn, do everyone a favor and call it a day. Come back when you can maintain a 4hr pace. It's way too hot here in Florida to be playing a 6hr casual round of golf.

Best in the area!!

I play this course often and all I can tell you is, this course is in excellent condition no matter the time of the season. Always the best!! Fun but challenging, greens are some of the best in the area. If you're looking for a challenging golf course in great condition then you owe it to yourself to play this course.

Disappointed

This used to be my favorite course in Jacksonville. Was always in great shape year around. Fairways always nice and low, greens smooth with moderate speed. A treat to putt on. Sadly though this course seems to be declining in overall condition in the past 6-12 months for some reason. Bent Creek does have a nice practice facility which has always been a big deal for me.

Good value

Like some other I guess I expected more because of the Big Break competition. With that being said the course is challenging, narrow fairways and short. But you need a short game to score well here. Leave driver in bag and you'll have more fun here. Greens had been punched approx. 2 weeks prior so still some sand left but the contour of the greens still make it difficult.

Great course and a must play if in the St.Augustine area. Nice layout with really nice greens. Only draw back is it's hard to get tee time since it gets a ton of play.

N.FLA must play golf course!!

This is a really nice course. Always very well maintained no matter what the time of year. Practice facilities are great as well. I play this course often since it's become my favorite, love the GPS in all carts. The greens here are always in the best of condition than anyone else in the area again no matter the time of year. My only complaint for this club is the clubhouse itself. Everytime, I've ordered my food from the 8th tee box and everytime it's not ready when I get to the clubhouse. Pre-ordering food to keep pace of place on time only works if the food is ready when you get there. The staff doesn't seem to be to friendly or helpful but that may just be my perception based on not being satisfied with the timeliness.

What Happened???

Having not played here in a long time I was really disappointed in the overall condition of the facility. Driving range was closed, greens were in sad shape and it looked as if they have done zero upkeep or upgrades of the dining/snack bar area. Overall, extremely disappointed considering this used to be a very nice place to play.
