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.
