Jack's Best
Great conditions and pace. Nice layout to play your best golf.
Snail pace of play
Course was in good condition with firm greens. Pace of play was horrible. Large group ahead of ours who needed a remedial lesson in ready golf!

Fun challenging course
Fairways, greens and traps were in very good condition. Lots of doglegs and occasional hidden water trouble near the greens, so with no GPS or maps to show the way, you can get surprised if it's your first time playing. Fortunately we were playing with a retired teaching pro who had played the course several times and could provide help. Nice Nicklaus design and a good value. We'll be back.
Wonderful! Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Golden Bear Golf Club at Indigo Run.

Must play
We played 3 different courses on the Island. This course was in the best shape by far. Greens were fabulous and fairways were excellent. Best value in HHI.
Outstanding! Thank you for your kind words. We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Golden Bear Golf Club at Indigo Run.
Conditions right off the fairway need work. Maybe the grass just hasn’t grown in yet.. greens were good not great. Some really nice holes. Great course for average weekend players, challenging yet fair. Staff was incredibly nice and welcoming.
