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.

They’ve lost the course

I’ve watched as this course has steadily declined over the last 3 years. Where’s the pride? Heck! Where is the ground crew? Pro shop staff are nice but are left helpless to defend the conditions. It’s really sad because Southampton used to be a viable option on 210. Most greens on the front resemble a spray painted sandlot. Several fairways are in poor shape and bunkers are inconsistent. I’ve heard they’re planning a refresh in 2026. In the meantime, they should consider charging a rate that is commensurate with the conditions.

Unfortunately disappointed

I hate to provide a poor review as I have played this course several times in the past and enjoyed it. The greens are HORRIBLE, several are 50% grass, too many bumps big enough to knock a put 6" off its line. The pace of play was unacceptable, we were waiting an extended period of time on every tee box to the point we were given a 9 hole raincheck as it took over 3 hours to play the front 9. The fairways and tee boxes were in pretty good condition. There were several holes however that had numerous areas of plain dirt/sand where the 1st cut of rough should have been, some from excessive cart use, others from either disease or maintenance issues. Staff was courteous and nice enough to issue the raincheck.

Good condition with a nod to improvements in progress

Good golf course with actual grass on the fairways ( stay in the middle) not much water to hamper your shots unless you go way left or right- that’s on you! Sand bunkers increase as you get on back 9 but that dictates accuracy. The greens are under progress with fertilizer and bug killer- mite’s infestation earlier- greens hold your shot and no false fronts. We were matched up with two guys- one local and one from PA- very nice players. In and out of bunkers- sand fine shape. Putting was a little dicey on back 9 as grass longer and slower, but we adjusted. Starter Jeff very friendly and informative, Gary the Marshall was friendly and available- no issues with pace of play at all! Did 18 in 4 hours and 5-10 min. Perfect! I was happy enuf with a 39 on the front (3 birdies and two pars) from the forward tees, and 46 on the back including an 8 on 15. Hubby just over 90.

What a great day of golf to finish our visit to Florida!

The course will only get better in the next month or two! More water!!

Plus, New carts with GPS coming in May will be a welcome addition.

Thanks again SH

Hot deal totally worth it !

Fix the greens

Greens have been suffering for a while. I love the course and hate it is in this condition. The range needs work.

Nothing but fun

Our threesome had a great time playing South Hampton. I've played the course several times before, and seen it at its best, so I was a bit disappointed with the shape of the course. Regardless, the layout is so great that a few dry spots didn't deter us from having a great time.

I get it, that time of year all courses price are inflated. But the greens were not maintained. So rough and bumpy. I would have rather spent double the money at dyes valley. Not worth the $90 I spent to play at south hampton

Course needs work

Like a lot of courses right now in north Florida, the course is not in very good shape. Fairways thin but greens are poor. Greens were not cut or rolled this day, due to so much healing application laid down. Hopefully will recover as they layout is nice. Range is a disaster
