Amazing PGA Instructor! I highly recommend Thomas Crumrine, PGA Certified Instructor at Bent Creek. From the very beginning, he took the time to ask questions and understand my goals, learning style, and experience level before offering any instruction. He used analogies that immediately clicked for me. Instead of generic tips, Tommy connected every lesson back to things I could easily understand, making each adjustment feel natural. Beyond being an excellent teacher, Tommy is approachable, patient, and clearly has a deep knowledge of the game. His personalized coaching style made the lesson both enjoyable and effective. I absolutely recommend scheduling a lesson with him. read more

Ok - course was in good shape, greens were nice and good fairways. Great price, and wasn't too crowded teed off at 830'on a Tuesday. Gas powered carts! Overall, I'd recommend it considering the great rate and course was fun to play. They do have a driving range - they are working on it so not the best shape. There's also putting green and chipping area. Clubhouse / Proshop was nice friendly staff and the AC was cranking out the cold air. Would play it again. read more

The staff is extremely friendly. Unfortunately, it didn't make up for the pace of play and conditions of the course. We had a 6-some in front of us constantly looking for balls and they were waiting on a group in front of them! They had 2 groups of 4 booked at the same time. Our group and another! We did not tee off with them, but made me wonder after it took us 5 hours to play if this is the way they book. It was a very frustrating day of golf. read more

Back 9 looks great, front 9 under repair on most greens. Newly placed sod, so they are working on them. Challenging course with plenty of hills, Marsh and water. Reasonable rates and friendly staff! read more

Bent Creek Golf Course - Golf Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I play this course regularly as it is one of the courses I learned to play on many many MANY years ago. It's a little bit of a trek from where I live but you can find good deals on their website for tee times. The course is usually in better than average condition and they do a pretty good job keeping it well maintained. Well placed rolling hills and water throughout the course, it can be a challenge for all skill levels while still providing an enjoyable day golfing. Bent Creek - formerly The Golf Club at Jacksonville - offers a lot of enhancements and options at their facility. They have one of the few remaining lighted driving ranges in town (at a golf course), they have the golfboards - think electric skateboard with a place for your golf bag, and I believe late afternoons they offer foot golf, i.e. soccer golf. There are holes for foot golf all over the course and seems like a great way to get some exercise if you're into soccer. One evening while on our way out we saw a group of 6 getting ready to play foot golf. Pretty cool. This is more of a 3.5 star course but if I had to critique the course with a negatives is at dusk; the mosquito population seems to be fairly abundant during peak season. Obviously, this is about 8 months out of the year in Jacksonville so plan your golf outing accordingly. read more

Great Place , very down to earth, Blue Collar golf club . I am from out of town and they made me feel right at home !

Last played this course 20+ years ago when was managed by the PGA TOUR. Unfortunately, different story now. Where do I start. For $10 range balls you would expect them to at least be in OK condition. Nope. Driving range was hacked up. Tee boxes not any better. The "new" greens were patchy and bumpy. Could use some TLC. Cart almost died. Pace of play was horrendous. Backed up because of a 6-some. Yes a 6-some. No starter, ranger or even cart girl in sight. Other than that, I had a great time. read more

Have played this course regularly for the last 6 or 7 years. Very enjoyable course to play! Staff is super friendly and always seem to be smiling. That's sure in short supply lately. Nice clubhouse; not extravagant but has all the essentials. Reasonable prices in the lounge. Prices are very competitive and you can usually get "deal" if you're diligent. Pace of play can get slow at times as it is a public course but most of the time it's not terrible. Usually a 3-4 hour round can be expected if you're not the one fishing for balls. It's a tight course and not too long. Very "old guy" friendly, but back up to the blacks or golds and you have all you can handle. I consider this a shot makers course as ball placement off the tee can be the key to a good score. Greens are usually in pretty good shape but during the transition seasons Fthey are about average for the courses around here. fairways are always above average as you rarely have to hunt some grass to hit. Roughs are just that: miss the fairway and you'll pay the price. Also plenty of water and waste areas you'll need to navigate. Overall I highly recommend Bent Creek but bring some extra balls. The Tee Box is yours, swing away. read more

Was at the "19 Hole" Restaurant at the Bent Creek Golf Course today for a charity event. While there, we ordered some food from their clubhouse, and what a delight to have some fresh made sandwiches that were very flavorful. The chicken salad was loaded onto a bun with fresh lettuce and tomato. The chicken salad was lightly dressed with mayo, spices and relish. It was very tasty. The turkey wrap was well made, loaded with lots of fresh lettuce, tomatoes and meat, but way too much mustard (requested no mayo). Overall great place to have a quick, reasonably priced lunch. read more

Great course. Nice staff. The course is in very good condition but it is one of the tougher layouts in the area.

I've been coming here since 4 years it's very poor managed pro shop guys always have an attitude the brakes on the golf carts don't work I don't even know how they're axing $30 a green fee which should be 14. There's weeds all over the place and it's been like this for the longest time. There's never a card lady. read more

Came with a few friends on a Sunday, the woman at the desk was not very friendly she made a few rude remarks to us. They only offered one price to play 9 holes vs 18 holes. We were only looking to play 9 so was disappointed to hear it was $30 a person. Once we started to play we played the front 9 holes and all of them were pretty much under water ( keeping in mind it is a Florida summer) all of the greens were being worked on so they moved the holes on the fairway and it was impossible to putt. Was a very short lived game and wouldn't recommend this course for people who are trying to enjoy the actual game or play at all. read more

I have played this course many times but this course is in really poor condition. The greens have very little grass and tee boxes are in rough shape as well. Very disappointing read more

4 stars for driving range only. Nice place to hit balls on the range. No mats here, so you can tee off on the grass. Pretty cheap buckets and friendly staff. I would come back here to actually check out the course and play a round. read more

Played 18 today with my wife while on vacation to Jax Beach. Very challenging course for average player like myself, makes for a very fun day on the course! Course is in superb shape, staff friendly, helpful, and efficient. Come early for tee time because they have great practice facilities! A MUST PLAY if you're in Jacksonville area. Best value found on the entire vacation! read more

Walked on to play 18 and the staff couldn't have been nicer. The course was a real challenge with blind shots and hidden bunkers on most holes. The course conditions were above average. This will be my choice every time I'm in Jacksonville. read more

Great layout, and the positive ends there! The course conditions were average at best, and the pace of play was terrible! We showed up early for our 130 tee time and waited on a cart until 210 because they booked tee time every seven minutes! Took two and a half hours to play nine holes and the group in front of us brought his dog with him!! First time playing the course in years because the last time I played my truck was broke into!! Won't be back!!! read more

The course design is good, although it could use another 800 yards from the back tees for tournament golf. The greens were in very good shape but could have used more speed, a touch on the slow side rolling at approx. 8 on the stimpmeter. The disappointing part the Tees and Fairways were like the first cut of rough and both could use a big improvement to justify the $50 green fees. read more
