The Savannahs Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

First tee on a beautiful Florida winter's day on Merritt Island Photo submitted by sttcapt on 02/13/2017
Andrew at the reception desk made the rain dance and we were able to play our 18 holes without rain as promised. We really enjoyed our game.
Good Value
I felt like the deal we got on this course was a really good value. The greens are a bit sorry but the course was lovely and a bit tight. We enjoyed our round immensely.
Disappointed with condition
Have played this course many times in the past. Always had a nice time playing here and course used to be fairly well maintained. Since turning the course over to the homeowners it has taken a turn for the worse. Extremely poor maintenance if any at all. Greens were terrible with weeds growing on them and lack of grass. Fairways were also weedy , wet and cart ruts all over them. Tee boxes were fair. Would not return until they fund there maintiance account and hire a good company to manage the course.
Andrew was very nice when I arrived at the counter of the departures. The starter acknowledged us on a friendly manner and the pace of the play was excellent.
Great course
Great golf course with different and tricky holes. Had a lot of fun playing this course. Staff is really friendly. You defenitley Need a lot of balls especially on the First nine
Course wet
This is my favorite course.They say that they wouldn’t be on golf now anymore because of problems with Golfnow hope this can be fixed.I enjoy playing here but will go elsewhere for better price.
Condition
Course is showing other type improvements, however the greens are not quite puttable.
Good for the price paid
We got a $15 deal through Golfnow and for the $15, it was just ok. Anymore than $15 would have been too much.
The greens, for the most part were cut low (stimp 10) but contained many weeds. The fairways, most of them, contained weeds. On the 10th, the fairway was really full of weeds. They are doing some work out there, but it looks like it's at a standstill. They should try to kill the weeds before it's too late.
For the price, it was just ok.
The snowbirds will play it only once if the conditions remain the same as yesterday.
Punched greens
Course was in so-so shape compared to other local tracks.
Bad news was no communication from club house at checkin about the greens being punched & heavily sanded.
Also, was overcharged the rate stated on Golfnow checkout.
Extremely dissatisfied & will not be back anytime soon.
Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience and the course conditions at the course. We are always looking to improve customer experience. Hope you can give the course a second chance in the near future.
Fun course
I really do like this course but they have to start putting there aerification alerts on golfnow like everyone else...I had a blast but was caught by surprise on the greens..Hopefully soon there a.m. prices will come down into the mid 20's like all the other course at this level so i can play it more..It is a fun course and the bar looks awesome..
Thank you for the feedback regarding your recent visit. We hope to see you again soon this season!
Thank you Vernon1946 for the five star rating!
Not worth it
Played his course yesterday as was grossly disappointed. Course hasn’t been maintained whatsoever. Greens were the worst I’ve ever seen.
