Four Course Rotation
The Forty Plus Golf Association rotates between the following Courses in North Florida
BENT CREEK GOLF CLUB
Continues to operate as a city-owned public course, now managed by professional operators (like Billy Casper Golf / Indigo Golf Partners)
-
Major renovation in 2021:
-
Greens restored to original size
-
Drainage upgraded
-
Practice facilities improved
-
-
Named one of the Top 25 Most Improved Golf Courses in the U.S. (2023).
It’s quietly gone from “solid muni” to a legit hidden gem again.

HYDE PARK GOLF CLUB
Hyde Park isn’t trying to compete with flashy modern courses—it doesn’t need to.
It’s a nearly 100-year-old Donald Ross design that’s:
-
Survived economic swings and a world war
-
Served generations of local golfers
-
Still offering one of the purest “classic golf” experiences in Jacksonville

FLEMING ISLAND GOLF CLUB
-
Opened in September 2000, right at the height of Northeast Florida’s housing and golf boom.
-
Designed by well-known architect Bobby Weed, a former PGA Tour in-house designer.
-
Built as the centerpiece of a master-planned residential community on Fleming Island in Clay County.

St. Johns Golf Club (Elkton, Fl.)
St. Johns Golf Club is a modern municipal survivor story:
-
Built for growth
-
Took some wear during the golf downturn
-
Reinvented itself with a redesign
-
Still one of the most accessible public options in the St. Augustine/Jacksonville corridor
