The King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort
About
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.

RI GOLFER
ALWAYS A CLASSIC ROUND. CHILLY TO START THEN SUPER AFTER 5TH HOLE
This is the semi-private course to play on St Simons Island
The course is a wonderful golfing experience! Challenging for all levels of golfers that is always in pristine condition. Nestled along the tidal marshes with 4 holes on the back 9 located on an island in the center of the marsh with scenic views to die for! The staff is very friendly, great food at the restaurant over looking the 9th hole lake, & the practice facility has a nice driving range, chipping, & putting greens. You will not be disappointed with this course!!!
Course knowledge is essential!
First time there I paired myself with a twosome one of which was a member. Without his course knowledge this round would have been “more” disastrous. This course is a scenic treasure worth the price. Only two courses avail public play on St. Simon’s Isle, King & Prince and Sea Palms. I went with higher priced spread & was pleased. Don’t be such a cheapskate - play K&P.
Always A classic
With Afib I like their liberal computer cart restrictions. Some courses are most challenging. The holesc22 to 15 are classics and worth the round by themselves.
Love this course hated that we ran into girls practicing
We had a 320 tee time , and were having a great time, until we ran into 4 girls and maybe a parent on a practice round. Didn’t finish cause of the girl and the practice. 9 and beyond had these girls on them. Wish the course had warned us, I would’ve picked another day.
Always good
Got the 7:50am tee time in a Thursday morning. Course was in great condition for it being winter. Greens rolling pure. Fairways had some wet spots and some areas under repair but those were easily avoided since I can't find a fairway to save my life. Best course available on Golfnow in the area.
Great course
This course is open to the public and in my mind has the best layout, the best bunker sand and the fastest truest greens on the island. Nice people working there. You won’t be disappointed.
Always a challenge. While tees 125 good luck.
Some solid carry if you play blue. White is easier than 125.
Great day!!!
This course just may be the best course in the area!!!!
Great Morning
First one off on a Wednesday morning. Played in 2:10 as a single. Had the course to myself. 12-15 are spectacular. Actually 9-15 is a really fun stretch. Course is pretty easy. Not very long even from the back tees.
Staff was very friendly except the woman in pro shop when checking in and again when I stopped in afterward.
Would definitely play again when in the area.
Amazing Experience
The course was in perfect condition and we were lucky that few others were playing. We got to go out as a twosome and almost never saw anyone else. Very nice, relaxing day of golf on perfect fairways and greens. Very cool section of the course where three holes are out in marshlands (of a sort), which totally changed the experience with wind and whatnot making those holes a unique experience for the day.
Highly recommend this course. The amenities like food and drinks were lacking but that was minor to the course condition and experience.
