About Inn at St. John’s

This unique property became a golf resort in 2006 when the former St. John's Provincial Seminary reopened as the Inn at St. John's, a boutique, four-diamond property adjacent to the 27-hole Brae Burn Golf Club. The 118-room inn features Romanesque architecture, two ballrooms with 25-foot ceilings, a two-story atrium and 22 meeting rooms. The more casual Burger Loft complements the fine dining 5ive Steakhouse and Bar. The course, dating to 1923 before a third nine was added in the 1990s, shares its site with Carl's Golfland at St. John's, one of the country's premier golf stores. There's also a covered, heated range at Carl's to bang balls year-round to prepare for your battle with "The Monster" - the nickname for the 666-yard 13th hole, the longest par 5 in the state.

Greens were challenging!

Most of the greens seem to have a severe downhill slope to a water hazard.

Good but

Overall this is a ood course. The course has US Open speed greens can cause some problems when combined with extremly sloped greens. Balls will fall off if you make a misread or don't get the ball all the way to the hole.

Don't be above the hole you can easily go past and off the green.

Challenging greens!

Very fun course and the “Monster” on the 13th hole is like a professional hole. I hit driver, 3wood, five wood just to make the green, but the conditions were rather wet. From the back tees you better have your A game! The putting is very challenging and there were no flat lies. I would still recommend this course, but take it lightly on the putting, a pro would have trouble on most of these greens!

While on 13 I was looking for a ball close to the woods and I was riding in the rough as your signs said to. Well there was a really soft spot and I ended up mud from head to toe. Is there anyway I csn get a rain check? I wanted to finish but was soaked snd covered in mud. Please let. Me know thanks!

Course was awful and a swamp, shouldn’t of even let us play with the horrible conditions all over this course! It sucked and I will never be back. Not kept up, dead grass laying all over, by far one of the worst I golfed at. Had to wait for a cart while they cleaned it because they don’t have many. Didn’t even finish the 9th hole, I was over it and left. Super disappointing! Wouldn’t recommend it.
