Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club, North Course
Lake Jovita Golf and Country Club is a public, 36 hole golf facility located in Dade City Florida, just a few miles from Brooksville. The facility has two 18-hole courses, they are: lake Jovita North Course and Lake Jovita South Course.
The newer of the two courses is The Lake Jovita North Course which opened in 2002. The course was designed golf course architect Kurt Sandness. Like the South Course, the strategy behind this course was simple: to take full advantage of the uniquely hilly terrain and create a golf course that is professional tour quality in every sense.
The North course has even greater elevation changes than the South; providing golfers with positively incredible views of the scenic community.
The North Course continues the tradition of the South Course in terms of movement and elevation changes that are contrary to most Florida courses, In fact, from the second tee box, you can see five or six miles to the northeast.

Day 49 - 100 days, 100 courses (Wednesday, May 1, 2019)
How do you get upset about playing golf on a picturesque course with the sun shining, and you shout the temperature (87 in both counts)?
I was playing alone behind 5 foursomes so it was slow. The guys in front kept apologizing. I told them everything was just fine, that I was just out there enjoying a beautiful day.
After 13 holes Norm caught up with me and we had an enjoyable few holes where I learned about the Lake Jovita community.
Note: 1 lost ball.
The management treats golfers poorly, they make you feel like you are just another dollar and are a bother.
The Lake Jovita Golf Courses are nice, but why go there and try to have a nice time if you're treated like a second class citizen? They try to crowd too many in too short of time on the course resulting in 5 to 6 hour rounds which are no fun.
Could be a fine place, but as managed, I can't recommend.
