Bobby Jones Golf Club

Great place for a walk. Will look great when it's been redeveloped and the Nature Walk is in place. Lots of photo opportunities.

As of March 2020 Bobby Jones is closed for golf - and faces an uncertain future. For now, this county-owned course, which is not being maintained, is open for walking and biking on the golf cart tracks (that can be bumpy - so leave the roller blades home). We took our bikes on several miles of loops that meander throughout the course and enjoyed having the place virtually to ourselves and seeing a number of birds - cormorants, egrets, herons, hawks, sand hill cranes, and a lone kestrel. Get outside and take advantage of these Covid-safe activities while Bobby Jones is in limbo. OH - G's Southern Kitchen, which operates in the club house, is open for meal possibilities.

Great for what it is! If you're looking for a destination for your golf trip to Florida this isn't the place for you. As far as public courses go it's great! The fairways are pretty rough and the greens can be slow (but since it's Florida it rains all the time). Staff is wonderful and helpful. The prices are great for summer, I haven't played there during season but I play every weekend as a college student and can afford it.

I played yesterday. The pro shop guy was very friendly and helpful. The cart guy was funny and very helpful. The started was best of all. He made it a point to remember people's names and to explain the course layout. I played with two local guys who were really nice. We played pretty much the same. Not bad not great. I enjoyed the course even though the course I played just had new greens put in. Putting was a little slow but that was to be expected. All and all I had a wonderful round of golf at a nice golf course.
