Excellent Golf course

One of my favorite golf courses in South Georgia. I’ve played this course many times and never get sick of playing it. Great collection of par 3’s and a course that even if you happen to spray the ball you still have a look at the green. 5 stars!

My New Favorite

We found this course on GolfNow and booked it with a Hot Deal price. This was our first time at this course and we were very pleasantly surprised. It was January, but the overseeding wasn't an issue and the course was fantastic. We will definitely plan to play here whenever we can get to the area. We can't wait to see it in the spring!

OMGEEZERS!!!

Absolutely one of the most beautiful courses we have played. Most friendly staff, gorgeous gorgeous scenery, looks easy but was challenging. It is a HIDDEN GEM! So hidden, pace of play was outstanding and felt like we had the whole course to ourselves. The entire course is immaculately kept. Highly recommended and would make it a golf destination.

Phenomenal

Phenomenal course, staff, and amenities.

I drove an hour to get here, but it was well worth it.

After much rain, the course's draining system was impressive.

Will definitely be back again.

First Time Playing

Golf Club at Sanctuary Cove

I played the course on December 3rd and I found it to be in excellent shape. The greens were firm and rolled true while allowing your ball to stop if hit appropriately.

I played from the white tees and found the course to be very fair. The air was cool, high 40s, and the wind was blowing. The course is very pictresque.

I found the staff to be friendly, courteous and willing to help in any way needed.

Highly recommend the course.
