St. James Bay Golf Club

Course was great, maintained perfectly. Not sure how it’s empty all the time but that is part of what makes it so great, hidden gem. Staff was helpful and extra friendly which is alway a huge plus

Need To pay attention to scorecard hole yardage, download the course app or use your range finder to navigate around the course. Fun, corky golf course!

What seems to be not so well known is this is an Audubon certified course. The course winds beautifully through the wetlands, with raised wooden paths crossing over streams and protected areas. I felt connected with nature at every turn.

The course itself was in very good condition and is a challenging and very fun layout.

Course in good condition staff and restaurant where great.

Only complaint is no cart service besides that awesome course to play beautiful fairways and fast greens!

Great course but tough, that rough in front of you at tee off on most holes will def lose you some balls but overall a fun great maintained course. Would love to play it again soon.

Great course lots of forced carries over natural hazards

Beautiful layout

A

Must play if your in the area

Great layout for experienced golfers.... several holes that require carrying natural areas off the tee, Some other areas require carry on approach shots to green, and a few holes that require both. Course in good shape and fun to plsy

Super friendly staff, course in great condition, nice greens, It will challenge the average golfer.

I played this course twice this week while vacationing from Illinois. St. James Bay is a terrific, challenging course. Very scenic and lush but demanding. There must be a waste area or other hazard to clear on every hole! They removed the built-in GPS from the carts, which makes determining distances quite difficult. I left my driver in the bag and hit a 3-hybrid off most of the tees. Bring a lot of balls if you're not exactly the straightest of hitters. Very little break to the greens. I will play this course every time I'm in the area.

You better bring lots of balls with you. Perfect drives in middle of fairway will be in swamp grass that runs the middle of fairway. No way of knowing swamp is there without knowing the course

St James Bay is a beautiful layout that is challenging but very very fair! Must play if you're in the area!

First time playing this track and it was as difficult of a course that I’ve ever played. Plenty of hazards though so bring plenty of balls. Great layout altogether though, ripped 3 iron off the tee pretty much all day and still had great numbers in to score.

Second time playing this course with my son-in-law. Every hole seems to have swampland to hit across. We play from the senior tees and seem to lose a lot of balls, very tough course. Greens seem to be in good condition because of all the rain we’ve had recently. Guess I’ll play it again but only course near where were staying on St. George Island.

This used to be a fairly decent course. Unfortunately, over the last year or two, the course has been poorly managed - both from a maintenance perspective as well as the from office. The course conditions are poor and getting worse. The pace of play is slow and uncontrolled. There is no longer GPS on the carts (now need to use an app on your phone - a must) or ice and water at the start.

St. James Bay is a beautiful, well-maintained course with all the amenities. The staff are very friendly. Bring a lot of balls, though. The course has hazards to negotiate on every hole. For me, there are a couple of hazards which are impossible to get over. Nonetheless, I would play this course every day if I could.
