Fort Clark Springs Golf Course
The golf : Fort Clark Springs is a residential and resort
community that offers a short 18-hole regulation course and a 9-hole par
3 course, both of which are open for public play. Las Moras Creek meanders
through the picturesque community of about 750 households, and the population
swells a bit during the winter as retirees move in and take advantage
of the warm weather.
One of the great features of this course is that it offers the chance
to play from the tips and score very well, as the back tees are just over
5,700 yards. Most of the par 4s are barely over 300 yards, making length
off the tee a non-issue. Only the par 4 No. 16 at 357 yards resembles
anything close to what you might see back home. Hole 12 has some length
at 566 yards, and is the number one handicap hole.
Plan accordingly if you're in the area, as the course is very popular
with the locals and can get very crowded. Call ahead. Tee times are required
on the weekends. One option is to get there early and walk on the par
3 course as a warm-up for your round on the big course.
