Whether you're scheduling time to reconnect as father and son, planning a family golf outing, or just searching for a romantic golf-filled getaway, summer is the perfect time of year to golf your way through Northeast Florida. The season is also an ideal time to explore the beaches, towns and attractions that surround our famed courses, such as Clay County and Florida's Historic Coast — St. Augustine, Ponte Vedra & The Beaches.

If you’re like us and you’re starting to plan your summer golf vacation, but are afraid you can’t afford it, rest assured — Florida’s First Coast has plenty of budget-friendly golf vacation options that won’t break the bank. Enjoy first-class amenities at an inexpensive rate at these area resorts and golf courses.

Amelia Hotel at the Beach

Unwind on the white-powder sands of Amelia Island, where palm trees and stunning ocean views frame one of Florida’s most relaxing vacation spots – Amelia Hotel at the Beach. Located just steps from the beach, and mere minutes from historic downtown Fernandina and Amelia Island’s renowned golf courses like Fernandina Beach Golf Club, The Amelia River Club and Oak Marsh, you’ll never run out of things to do!

Hidden Hills Golf Club

Hidden Hills Golf Club is located in Jacksonville, just a short drive from the Beaches, Downtown and the Southside. The club features a driving range, 9-hole and 18-hole golf options, and a full service restaurant. This course provides a challenging experience and features dog legs, artificially elevated greens and a few holes that don't allow you to lay up because of the water placement. Close by, you can stay near Downtown Jacksonville at DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront, or relax at beachside accommodations like the island-inspired Margaritaville Beach Hotel Jacksonville Beach or Courtyard by Marriott Oceanfront.

Hampton Inn & Suites Amelia Island-Historic Harbor Front

Leisure travelers and business personnel alike are sure to be impressed by the unwavering guest service at Hampton Inn & Suites Amelia Island-Historic Harbor Front. The boutique hotel is located in a quaint, Victorian seaport village, overlooking the Fernandina Beach Marina. Amelia River cruises and carriage tours are a short walk away and the hotel is just a half-mile from shops, bars, and restaurants — and under 10 minutes from the Amelia Island Lighthouse. Guests can walk to nearby restaurants, shop in historic Fernandina Beach, view galleries, or play one of the local golf courses such as Fernandina Beach Golf Club, The Amelia River Club and Oak Marsh.

Eagle Landing Golf Club

At Eagle Landing Golf Club, the 7,037 yard Clyde Johnston design takes on a vintage feel as he incorporates several of the classic design holes from around the world into the par-72 layout. Eagle Landing also offers a magnificent golf clubhouse with sports bar, fully-stocked pro shop, his and her locker rooms, and an elegant restaurant overlooking sparkling water, abundant wildlife and lush fairways. You will be finding affordable rates here but will not be sacrificing quality. Nearby lodging options include Courtyard Jacksonville Orange Park located near the highway and recently renovated.
