This is one golf vacation destination fit for royalty. Of the many courses in Jacksonville, Florida, the Queen’s Harbour Yacht and Country Club is considered the best. Not only is it extremely beautiful – with views of yachts at the marina on one side and the surrounding natural splendor of Jacksonville on another, but it offers a quality of play that does not come close to plain and mediocre.

to be skillful and excellent where they should be. And in this golf vacation favorite, they are faced with a layout that requires them the best of their shotmaking skills, and techniques. The 18-hole, par 72 Mark McCumber design is a good combination of a variety of par 3s, long par 4’s and short par 5s spread out on Bermuda carpeted rolling fairways.

When designer Clyde Johnston was given the piece of land between St Augustine and Jacksonville, Florida, he was given an empty, clean piece of canvass.
