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.

Great except for the wait after a collegiate tourney

Started tee time 45 minutes late due to a collegiate tourney. Would have been great to had an alert so we could have arrived closer to actual starting time. Course was laid out well. Beautiful moss draped oak trees. Greens were excellent, receptive and speed was perfect. Loved marsh holes as it was very peaceful out there. Lots of water but didn’t come into play much from the white tees. Lots of wildlife. Would like to see more birdies (hah) but saw a couple of alligators, some raccoons, cranes and lots of deer. Wasn’t expecting the construction noise but that’s to be expected in a growing neighbourhood. Never mind the alligators, but watch out for the uneven sidewalk at the ladies room next to clubhouse. I tripped and landed face first. Definitely a safety hazard that needs to be addressed. Would definitely play again and even consider a membership if we lived on SSI.

Round on 9/5

I have played this course 3 times prior to this. First 3 times were great, however this was an unpleasant round. We had a 7:30 AM tee time. The outside staff was not ready, the practice range was not set up, and we had to deal with grounds members on every single hole, which is unacceptable. When you’re paying almost $200 per person per round, your staff and grounds crew should be prepared, even for those who tee off early at 7:30. Please do better next time.

Nice course

Great course with two distinct areas, the wooded side and the marsh side offer great vistas.

Playing conditions were fair but not worthy of the $149 greens fee.

Nice Course

Very challenging course and with no role made it very difficult for someone in their upper 70s. I enjoyed playing the course and we played it twice.

Great course, A little off the beat and track driving from Savannah but worth it. Lots of water and trees if that’s what you like.
