Eagle Harbor at Eagle Harbor Golf Club

Eagle Harbor Golf Club sits in Fleming Island, a residential community southwest of Jacksonville in Clay County, Florida. Designed by Clyde Johnston and opened in the late 1990s, the course serves a private membership drawn largely from the surrounding master-planned development. Johnston, a North Carolina-based architect who worked extensively throughout the Southeast during this era, routed the layout through gently rolling terrain and natural wetlands characteristic of northeast Florida's coastal plain.

The course incorporates the region's typical design elements: elevated tees and greens to manage drainage, strategic use of native marsh areas and water features, and corridors framed by longleaf pine and live oak. Johnston's routing takes advantage of the property's modest elevation changes—unusual for this part of Florida—to create visual interest and varied shot values. Several holes play along or across wetland preserves that provide both scenic backdrop and strategic challenge.

Eagle Harbor functions primarily as a member amenity within its residential community, hosting regular club competitions and social golf. The course reflects the design priorities of 1990s Florida development golf: playable for a range of skill levels, visually appealing homesites integration, and maintenance standards suited to year-round subtropical play. The club includes traditional amenities such as a clubhouse with dining facilities and practice areas that serve the membership's recreational needs.
