The Golf Club at South Hampton was designed to give every golfer appropriate risk-and-reward opportunities that supply both encouragement to beginners and challenges for more advanced players. The slope and contour of the course’s landscape is its trademark with strategic mounding and over 60 contoured bunkers that emphasize the terrain’s natural undulations. The course features rolling fairways and massive greens. There are also sixteen large lakes that come into play throughout. The signature hole is the tremendous par-5, 17th, which is a scenic hole that features a lake, fairway bunkers, and a breaking green. Although the course is a challenge, there are six sets of tees to accommodate all skill levels.

Greens were perfect

February 2026 after a cold/freeze the fairways were mostly brown but easily playable. Overall a good course for most levels of player. I think there are 5 different sets of tees.

$60 in February with perfect greens ok by me

Sand traps were perfect also and I know this because I was in about 15 of them.

I’m upset at GolfNow for charging my credit card $82.00 for my wife being sick and couldn’t play.

I went to the course an hour early to let them know she couldn’t play and the guy at the pro shop said - No problem, wasn’t busy at that time anyway.

If this charge to my credit card stands we will not be using your services in the future. Victor McDonald

Tee box disappointment

Greens I. Really good shape for the most part with the winter over-seeding. Fairways and tee boxes are horrific. Lacking grass on almost every tee box and most fairways are just as bad. Course is majorly mismanaged.

Pro greens

This place is totally worth the trip. I played in the dead of winter and the fairways and rough where dormant and full and the greens where peak conditions. Definitely a good time.

They’re close

The greens are coming back, you can tell they’ve been over seeding a lot and there trying to let them grown in.

When I played they had 0 speed. You really had to hammer the ball on the green, the grass is thin and you can tell it can’t be cut down yet. I’ve always lied this course and I’d like to see it rebound. I did play well and for the layout that makes me happy with it. I hope they have it worked out soon.

Solid Public Course

Took a chance on this course and was pleased with the course. Pretty typical Florida layout with a good bit of water and sand. The fairways and corridors were pretty wide. And the course was in pretty good shape. Some of the tee boxes were pretty bare. The fairways and rough were in the weird semi dormant condition you can get in N Florida in the winter. The greens looked very good. They had been overseeded and looked great. However, maybe my biggest complaint. They were extremely slow. Overall, it was pretty good for what I paid. And I’d play there again when in the area.
