Last verified:

Yulee sits in the northern corner of Nassau County, roughly halfway between Jacksonville and the Georgia border. The community has grown steadily, and golf carts have become a practical way to get around certain neighborhoods without taking a car. Two dealers operate here — one on US-17 and one on Homegrown Way — giving residents a local starting point for buying a cart.

Because no repair shops or rental businesses are listed in Yulee itself, this page also points to dealers and services in Fernandina Beach and Jacksonville, both within a reasonable drive. North Florida's humidity is harder on lead-acid batteries than the central part of the state, so that's worth factoring into any purchase decision.

The two dealers in Yulee

Budget Golf Carts of Yulee, on US-17, is the more visible of the two. Their website shows new electric and gas models — including a 2024 Sierra 48V electric listed at $11,995 and a 2024 Yamaha Quietech EFI gas cart — alongside custom builds and used inventory. They advertise financing and trade-ins, with used carts starting well below the typical market floor. That makes them worth a visit if budget is the primary concern.

Icon Golf Cars of Yulee sits on Homegrown Way. Icon is a national brand with a dealer network across Florida, but the Yulee location's website returned an error when checked for this page. Before making the trip, call (904) 468-5917 to confirm what's in stock and when they're open. Nationally, Icon carts are known as value-oriented electric vehicles with a range of body styles.

More dealers and rentals near Yulee

If you want to compare more inventory or need a rental, Fernandina Beach — about 15 miles east — has three businesses: eWheelz Golf Carts and Roadshark Powersports both sell carts, while Tidal Wave Golf Cart Rentals handles short-term rentals. Rentals in the area typically run $120–$250 per day or $500–$1,000 per week for a 6-seater during peak season.

Jacksonville has the largest concentration of dealers in the region, with more than a dozen listings including Jax Golf Carts, Cart Nation, and Jax's Mobile Golf Cart Repair and Accessories — the last of which also handles repairs, useful if you need service work done. Callahan, about 20 miles southwest, has Cart Pros for another nearby sales option.

Where you can drive a golf cart in Yulee

Yulee permits cart use in specific communities under Nassau County rules, so the first step is confirming with your HOA or the county whether your street is designated for golf cart travel. Under Florida law, a standard golf cart may only be driven on locally designated roads — generally those posted at 30 mph or less — and only between sunrise and sunset. Drivers 18 and older must carry a valid ID; anyone under 18 needs at least a learner's permit (a rule that took effect in October 2023).

If you want to travel on roads posted up to 35 mph, a Low-Speed Vehicle (LSV) is the right choice. An LSV must be titled, registered, and insured like any other motor vehicle, and it needs headlights, turn signals, mirrors, and a seatbelt. Conversions from a standard cart to LSV spec typically cost $2,500–$5,000 at a shop. For longer trips between Yulee and Fernandina Beach or Callahan, an LSV gives you far more flexibility than a standard cart.

Batteries and upkeep in North Florida's climate

North Florida's heat and humidity are particularly tough on lead-acid battery packs. Near the coast — and Yulee is close enough to the St. Johns River and the Atlantic to count — lead-acid packs typically last three to four years before needing replacement. A new pack runs about $900–$1,800. Lithium batteries handle the climate better, lasting eight to ten years, though the upfront cost of a conversion is higher at roughly $2,000–$4,500.

Routine annual service — checking connections, cleaning terminals, inspecting brakes and tires — typically costs $150–$300 at a shop. Since neither Yulee dealer's website confirms on-site service bays, it's worth asking directly when you visit or call. For more involved work like controller or motor repair, budget $300–$900 and consider the Jacksonville shops that list repair as a service.
