Osprey Cove, GA: Private community, championship golf.
Stretching across 1,059 acres of lush coastal Georgia terrain, Osprey Cove is a premier private club community just a few miles from unspoiled coastline and sandy beaches and only minutes from Jacksonville, Amelia Island and historic St. Marys.
The River Club
The community’s 18-hole Mark McCumber golf course is a nationally ranked gem. The River Club is the place to be for many of the residents and complete access is available for a Social Membership (golf can be added separately). The clubhouse, with its sweeping views of the course and the marsh beyond, is scheduled to undergo renovations.
Tennis, Fitness, Boating & More
Whether you want to play tennis on the Har-Tru clay courts, exercise in the state-of-the-art fitness center, relax at the pool (open year-round), take in a fitness class such as Zumba or Yoga, or attend one of the many interest-club meetings, such as the Garden Club or Bridge Club, you’ll find plenty of fun things to do. And the social calendar is always filled with events.
Club members have two easy means of access to the Intracoastal Waterway–they can venture out from their home via their own private dock or by way of the community’s dock.
