St John Golf & Country Club
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the real challenge at St John Golf & Country Club, and which holes should I look forward to?
St John really tests your iron play, especially on the back nine where water comes into play more often. Keep an eye out for the par-3 14th; it's a beautiful, demanding shot over a pond that can make or break your round. We found the greens here are consistently quick and true, so bring your A-game with the putter.
When's the best time of year to play St John, and what should I expect from the conditions?
We highly recommend visiting St John in the spring or fall - the weather is absolutely perfect, and the course is in peak condition without the summer humidity. You'll find lush fairways and firm greens, making for an ideal golfing experience. Avoid the peak summer if you can, as the heat can be intense, though early morning tee times are still pleasant.
Is St John Golf & Country Club welcoming to non-members, and what's the best way to secure a tee time?
Absolutely, St John is quite welcoming to public play, which is a big plus for a course of this caliber. Your best bet for securing a prime tee time, especially on weekends, is to book online through their website about two weeks in advance. Green fees are competitive for the quality, typically ranging from $75-$120 depending on the season and time of day.
How well-maintained is St John Golf & Country Club, especially the greens and fairways?
From our experience, St John consistently delivers on maintenance - the course is always in fantastic shape. The fairways are meticulously manicured, offering excellent lies, and the greens roll incredibly smoothly with just the right amount of challenge. You can tell the grounds crew takes immense pride in their work here.
Beyond the course, what's the vibe like at St John's clubhouse or 19th hole?
The clubhouse at St John has a relaxed, upscale feel without being stuffy, perfect for unwinding after your round. We always grab a drink and a bite at 'The Eagle's Nest,' their casual grill, which offers great views of the 18th green. It's a friendly spot to recount your birdies and bogeys, and the staff are always attentive.
