Visit website The First Coast is full of courses designed by major golf champions. But just a short hour's drive north of Jacksonville, in the St. Simons area, is one of the top new semi-private golf facilities in the southeast!
The Golf Club at Sanctuary Cove is a collaborative effort between designer Fred Couples and Love Golf Design. The Golf Club at Sanctuary Cove is a true partnership that blends the classic design elements from traditional golf course architecture with the techniques of modern day design.
The result at Sanctuary Cove is a par-71, 7003-yard layout that is truly unique to the area. The front nine meanders through 300-year-old oak trees, lakes and preserved wetlands. While the back nine takes on a links design with stunning views of the Little Satilla River and the marshes that surround this Lowcountry layout.
Fred Couples said that the Golf Club at Sanctuary Cove has four of the best par-3s he has ever played. This is most evident when you reach the signature 13th hole. This 195-yard hole has an elevated green that is surrounded by marsh. By working with the natural features of the land, Couples has created a course that is challenging without being penal, and one that golfers will not tire of playing. With five sets of tees, The Golf Club at Sanctuary Cove will provide a true and fair test of golf that will appeal to players of all ability levels.
After golf, take advantage of the 6,000 square-foot clubhouse. Have a cold
drink on the patio and reminisce about the great shots you had during the day.
Or just relax, have some food and watch the sunset over the Lowcountry. The
stylish clubhouse features full service dining, men's and women's locker rooms
and a fully stocked pro shop. Additionally there is an outstanding practice
facility to fine-tune your game.
Operated by the renowned Bluegreen Golf people, Sanctuary Cove offers a relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of Jacksonville. Call now and experience this unique Golf Club Facility. It's worth the drive!
