About Lake Jovita Golf and Country Club - North Course

The North Course at Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club, designed by Kurt Sandness and PGA Tour professional Tom Lehman, opened in 1999 and quickly established itself as a premier golf destination in Central Florida. Carved through rolling hills and mature oak trees, the course offers a dramatic departure from the typically flat Florida landscape. Its design masterfully integrates the natural topography, featuring significant elevation changes, strategically placed bunkers, and water hazards that come into play on several holes, demanding both precision and thoughtful strategy from golfers of all skill levels.

Lake Jovita's North Course is renowned for its exceptional conditioning and challenging yet fair layout. The course boasts immaculate TifEagle greens and lush fairways, providing a consistent and enjoyable playing surface year-round. The design philosophy emphasizes a blend of beauty and challenge, with each hole presenting a unique test. The elevation changes, including a memorable 94-foot drop on the 11th hole, create stunning vistas and add an exciting dimension to the round, making it a truly distinctive experience in the region.

Playing the North Course at Lake Jovita is an immersive golf experience that combines natural beauty with strategic shot-making.
