setting for playing a round with the guys. But you
will also find a plethora of other things to do while
you are here. From the beautiful
waterfront to an abundance of restaurants,
shops and local entertainment, Jacksonville offers it
all. And it is just across the boarder from Georgia,
so there is no need to drive all the way to the tip
of the state to play great golf.!
Not enough? Well here are some
other things to consider when planning your next golf
vacation. |

offers some of the most comfortable year round golf
in the country. But just in case you needed a reminder
of just how great the weather is down here, the

as you can see, even in the dead of
winter when much of the country is cold
and covered in snow, Jacksonville provides
a much sought-after relief.. |
