The King & Prince Golf Course winds through the mature forests and vast salt marshes that are located along the northern coast of St. Simon's Island. The beautifully preserved surroundings offer a glimpse of the native wildlife, which includes ospreys, woodpeckers, and bald eagles. The course offers stunning coastal scenery and a challenging layout. The layout features a more open front nine with more sand while the back nine is characterized by the golf course's trademarks, four island holes that were carved from small coastal marsh island and accessed by elevated cart bridges. Numerous marshes and the vast Butler Lake make an appearance on seven holes. Golfers can warm up before a round on the expansive putting and chipping greens or the driving range, which is equipped with five target greens.

Beautiful course

Great course conditions right now. Greens rolled even. Semi-tight fairways with trees on every hole. A great course overall. Challenging but not too hard.

Great layout

I love this course. It’s in great shape and well cared for. The staff is always very friendly. I watch for the deals and try to play whenever I can get a good deal. My only complaint for this course is in my opinion they’re walking rate is way too high

Hot Deal Steal

First time playing the course. Staff , course, and layout is excellent. Greens rolled true (about a 10,), fairways, and green side rough were in good shaoe. Tight on many holes so don’t need the driver. Played blue tees (6.2 index) and enjoyed the day with my son. Highly recommend this public course over any other St Simons or Jekyll Island tracks.

Very nice course with a Hot Deal Discount

I am glad we got a hot deal. Would be overpriced at over $100 a round. We got lucky and started off the back side at our 1:44 tee time. There is NO STARTER - Teeing off on #1 was a family from another country with rented clubs and literally 2 baskets of range balls to play with. It literally took them almost 20 minutes to tee of #1. We joined another twosome and headed to #10 and never waited for one shot for 18 holes. Granted that is not a normal situation but I had to tell the story.

Superb conditions, stunning layout

This course is in excellent shape and is downright stunningly beautiful on the back 9. Never played anything like it. However, it is a very challenging track and the lack of a course map is disappointing. It would be stellar to have the screens on the cart for course management (including greens and pin placement), due to the importance of placing shots. But even that the course doesn’t have a simple layout available is surprising. Don’t get too wrapped up in knowing where to place your shot and you’ll have a blast!

St Simon golf

The King and the Prince golf course offered us a good playing layout. Tees can be used to fit our level of golf. Marshes got in my way but it was my first time there. I would recommend the course and would play it again.
