Space Coast Golf Club
About
Challenge the Savannahs. On the windward side of Merritt island lies one of the most unique golf courses on Florida's Space Coast. The 6,450 yard Gordon G. Lewis design winds through majestic hardwood forests, natural wetlands, and scenic lakes to reveal protected, undulated greens. Nine holes are framed by a natural savannah conservation area, bordered by hammocks with a high canopy of trees and coastal flatwoods. Water, in the form of natural wetlands and manmade lakes, comes into play on thirteen holes. The course boasts several unforgettable holes, such as the 525-yard, par 5 Signature 7th, regarded as one of the most challenging holes in Central Florida. This beautifully tight, typically southern course features six sets of tees, making play ideal for beginners and pros. The back tees are demanding even for the best of the best, while our new “Family Tees” are playable by anyone who wants to tee up. Prepare for your round by warming up on our practice facilities that include: unique aqua range, chipping and bunker area, and full-sized practice putting green. Look around during your visit, and you will notice nature's splendor on display. Our preserve features many water birds, birds of prey, reptiles, and low country mammals that make the savannahs their home. The fairways additionally offer a great view of the nearby Cape Canaveral rocket launches. Our southern plantation styled Clubhouse is a great place to start and end your day at The Savannahs. Inside you will find a golf shop, plus a bar and grill with great food and hospitality to match. Or, wander outside to the veranda overlooking the aqua range and golf course to catch the sunset.

Golfer Reviews
Course condition
Greens and fairways need some maintenance, but with recent rain perhaps they will improve.
Dear Good Stick,
You seem to be one of the golfers we continually let down and we have many more positive toned reviews that surround you. Please reach out to me so we can get on the same page goodstick. I would like to make this right with you.
Scott Soluri - Operations Manager ssoluri@savannahsgolf.com
Thanks for your business and the awesome 4 star review! We hope to see you back out Savannahs soon.
will play again
The course is very nice . The staff is very friendly , from the young guy booking you in to the starter . Once we booked in we were given a detailed layout of the course . This was very helpful. He also seemed genuinely interested in who we are and had a pleasant conversation with him . I will definitely get his name next time we go back . The starter could not have been nicer and also made us feel like we were important . The course is laid out nicely and the holes are pretty straight forward . The greens were very fast but I was told this is how they are in Florida One of the great things about this course was the wildlife with birds all over and fish jumping but the best part of that was the alligators sunning themselves.
Dear Craig,
Thanks for your business and this lovely review sir. The team at the Savannahs works hard to provide experiences just like the one you received. Have a great summer and we hope to see you on your next trip back.
Great county course
Great county course and off the beaten track (5 miles from Kennedy Space Center so not that full of players. This is one of those courses not completely lined with houses and so seems more in nature. Habitat has even less (NONE). Greens were w/o weeds & no bare spots; cut well, rolled tru. Plenty of real Sand in the traps but fairways had an occasional bare spot. Otherwise lots of grass (and weed). Dog legs, 200 yd par 3's from blue plenty of water and swamp to negotiate. Played all alone at 3pm on Saturday with no one in front or behind. How else to play this individual sport game?
Dear u00002661044,
Thanks for your 4 star review and for your business. We are working hard to eliminate those occasional bare spots and have a plan in place to do so by this summer. Thanks for your nice comments once again and we hope to have you back out real soon.
Thanks for your 4 star review! We appreciate your business and look forward to having you back soon!
Not Good
I was really shocked. I played here a lot last fall and the course was much better. Green are weedy, fairways were skimpy . Traps lack sand and are rocky.Very disappointing.
Dear Angler2,
We are sorry you did not enjoy your round. The green team has been working very diligently over the last year to elevate conditions on the course. We actual have added new material to several bunkers this winter and will continue improving the bunkers as the year progresses. We have also made significant improvements to the weaker areas in the fairways and that process will be ramping up again this spring when growing season resumes. Don't give up on us yet Angler2. We are not perfect, but we are definitely improving. Our regular players are raving about the significantly improved conditions and I'm sure you will notice them in a big way on your next visit if you give us a chance. Thanks for your business and we hope to have you out again soon.
Course was decent for the price.
Course was in good shape and at decent price at $30. Other courses in the area wanted $40 and higher. I do have one complaint in that there was no ranger on the course and the group behind me almost hit us with their golf ball. That group complained that we were moving slow but there were groups ahead of us too, so unsure how fast we could've played regardless.
Dear phlyp626,
Thanks for your business, and your review. We have been working diligently over the last year to improve conditions and it's getting better everyday out there. Every once and a while we get some golfers that simply don't understand the rules of the game and we do everything in our power to educate our golfers and prevent these occurrences from happening. We will try to get the golf train moving faster for your group on your next visit out. Take care!
Dear Jeek!
Thanks for the 4 star review. We appreciate your business and hope to have you out again soon!
So much improved!!!
Staff is very friendly. Course is much improved from playing there a few years ago. Interesting layout and always improving conditions every time I play at this course. A++++++++++++++
Dear 468825,
Well 5 star reviews get our attention pretty quickly! Thanks so much for acknowledging our accomplishments over the last year. The team at The Savannahs makes it a point to change one thing for the better every day. Looking forward to having you back out real soon!
One of my favorite golf courses to play
Very nice golf course to play the staff is very nice the golf course is in great shape the greens are great the nature is just beautiful
Dear Sterling,
You are one of our favorite golfers with reviews like this! The team has been working very hard to elevate the golfing experience and having all that wildlife on the course certainly helps. Thanks for your comments and for your business!
Insulted by to cost to value ratio.
Was hoping for an improvement from last round yet poor management choices prevail.
Dear Guystone1960,
Thanks for the 4 star review. We appreciate you taking the time to give us a nice rating. Come back and play soon!
Tight little course
The course was in really good shape. Some of the greens could have been kept up a little better, but really nice for a municipal course. Fairways were in excellent condition. This course, like most FL courses is covered in water, which I donated my fair share of balls to!
Savannahs golf course
Some fairways are not in good shape. Looks like fairways and tee boxes need new grass. Greens are in good shape.
Dear Frankdur13,
Thanks for taking the time to give us a review. The greens have definitely come a long way and we are proud of the product. We have been working diligently to repair the weaker areas in the fairways. We made some tremendous progress last growing season and have a plan ready to roll out this spring to continue with the repairs. Hope to have you back out soon and thanks for your business.
This course was oK.
I like this course because it is quite (natural) and the fairways are fair.
Greetings Roberto,
Thanks for the 4 star review. We hope to have you back out the next time your back in the states!
Mike in the Pro Shop was Outstanding!
I tried to book on line - Golf Now...the web site wasn't working. I tried to call the golf course, that is almost impossible, I got transferred to a call center....told them the problem. Zero help and I had to pay full price not the web discount. Play was slow and the starter jammed a rookie threesome in front of us...very frustrating. My only good experience was Mike in the Pro shop...first class.
Dear Leschannell,
We are very sorry that your booking experience was so difficult. I will be sure to pass along your experience to our partners over at GolfNow. We do not have anyone working in the shop named Michael, but we do have a Max. Max is one of the many Savannahs employees that put the customer first on a day to day basis. I would love to discuss your experience in further detail if you would give me that priviledge. I can be reached at ssoluri@savannahsgolf.com. If I dont hear from you, thanks for your business and we hope to see you again. - Scott Soluri Operations Manager
Nice place to play
Nice friendly people who care about you're experence. Place of play for 18 holes was less than 4 hours. (Great)
No problem coming to play again.
Dear Thomas,
Thanks so much for your kind words. We try very hard to make every guest experience a memorable one and it looks like our team hit a home run with you! We appreciate your business and we will see you back out at the Savannahs real soon!

Dear u472896504,
Thanks for your review and for your business. You hit the nail on the head as the recent rains have done wonders for us. Mother Nature has been throwing us some curve balls over the past 7 months but we are fighting through them. Those weaker areas in a couple fairways will be addressed in the very near future. Come back out and see the improvements soon.
