Played this course with very low expectations as I generally don’t favor target golf courses compared to courses that give you multiple ways to play a hole. Boy was I wrong. Several holes in I realized the genius of Pete Dye on this layout.

The quieter sibling with just as much bite. Wider off the tee but full of tricky angles and subtle movement, it’s classic Pete Dye—clever, demanding, and never the same round twice.

Great new course in the Jacksonville area. Doesn’t play like a typical Florida parkland course. Generous off the tee and the entire course plays firm and fast. Love the links-ish feel and always have a great time out here

Really interesting layout for the most part, few of the holes felt a bit forced but more the most part was a good mix of challenging holes with scoreable ones

Nice course and layout along the marsh of the Intercoastal. We played after some heavy rain and the entire front 9 that runs through the marsh was soggy and the cart paths were flooded. Still in good shape and lots of fun and challenging holes

Recently redone by Beau Welling going to one cut of turf and then sandy scrap on the outside. Very playable and enjoyable resort style course

Good track that’s usually in good shape, they just re-turfed the entire course so it should be in excellent shape. The price doubled though…

Fun course, a bit of a hike from where I live but I remember it being in good shape for a public course - some good holes on the back 9.

The Slammer & Squire is definitely the easier of the two courses in the World Gold Village but still a great track. I’ve had the opportunity to play it on several occasions and each time it’s been in excellent condition.

Don’t let the name fool you, aside from seeing some large boats this place is nothing special. Some really fun holes on the front 9, nothing too memorable on the back.

Love playing this course, greens are usually in good shape and the conditions have been steady for a while. Great value course and usually doesn’t have too many issues with pace of play

Thought to be a Donald Ross design, actually a Stanley Thomas. If this course had good funding, it would be one of the best public tracks in Jax. The layout is pretty fun and the greens are definitely Ross-esque which is why it’s believed to be one.

Green complexes are great and are generally in good condition Late spring / wet soil can be tough on the course, as the poa will take over before the sun bakes everything out. Very walkable.
