Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club (South course)

4-PLUS: Must play course - excellent standard; worthy of 4½ stars.

Est. 1999

Lake Jovita is home to two equally impressive and enjoyable championship courses. The original South course, designed by Tom Lehman and Kurt Sandness, opened in 1999 and was followed a couple of years later by the Steve Sandness designed North course.

The South course at Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club is a championship layout that ranks with some of the best in Florida. This tree-lined and open parkland course provides a wonderful test for your all-round game, with many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy. A must play if you are in the area.
