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.

Good course

Course was in great condition and had nice layout. Rate of play was terrible. Quit after 13 holes and 4 hours. Front nine fairly easy. Back nine looked challenging but didn't get to experience much of it.

Gem of SSI

Amazing track in the interesting and beautiful marshlands of SSI. Course is very well maintained. Greens fast and true although a bit soft and damp. Nice heft to fairway grass allowing for quality shotmaking. Thanks for taking good care of the course. Compliments to the maintenance team. Can’t wait to play it again.

Sweeeeeeet....

Never disappointed with K and P....Live in Savannah had a 1:44 tee time. Played 18 as a single got right off, had a twosome wave me through on 10 and then no hold ups. Course tee to green well manicured. Fast greens, smooth fairways and tee boxes lightly over seeded with rye grass. Perfect scoring conditions. Shot an 85 from 6300 yds... Great comfort station with cups, crushed ice and water. Didn't go in the clubhouse so not fair to really rate off course ammentities. 68 degrees and full sun. Awesome round and was home watching the election by 6pm. That's says it ALL.
