St. Johns Golf and Country Club is a rare, private club without pretension, where golf is taken seriously, but life is enjoyed more. Designed by Clyde Johnston in the early 2000s, the course weaves through the matured, pine-studded landscape of St. Augustine, presenting a playable, yet thoughtful challenge. While not a brute, its strategic bunkering and subtle elevation changes around the greens demand creative shot-making. The course generally suits those who appreciate a more traditional approach, favoring accuracy and course management over sheer power. The club has become a favorite of Northeast Florida families. While it lacks the pedigree of a championship venue, St. Johns is beloved by its members for its accessibility. It's a place where a weekend round with friends feels as important as any tournament. One telling anecdote often shared amongst members involves impromptu putting contests that erupt on the practice green after twilight rounds. It perfectly encapsulates the club’s spirit: competitive, yet always with a sense of camaraderie and fun. This social atmosphere is further bolstered by regular club events and casual dining in the clubhouse after play.
