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.

Rushed round

Having early dinner reservations after paying for this round, I asked the clerk if there were open tee times ahead of us explaining that we had 5:30 dinner reservations. The clerk stated that they were fully booked.

Having arrived an hour and fifteen minutes early, we went to the range and putting green to wait for our scheduled tee time at 2:00 PM.

As we practiced putting, several tee times (at least four) went infilled in ahead of us and rather than persist with the clerk, we teed off at our 2:00 PM scheduled tee time with a single in front ahead of us.

As we rounded the ninth hole and headed for the 10th tee, as we were ready to tee off, there was a foursome that had not been ahead of us in the tenth fairway so we waited to tee off. Not only did we have to wait at the 10th hole, we waited at the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th hole so we had to cut our round short skipping the last three holes.

Other than this negative aspect of our experience, we loved the course, the layout, amenities, and the many challenging features.

We wished we could have finished as the back nine were layed out in a gorgeous setting.

Afternoon round

When checking in for a two PM tee time we asked if it was possible to go off earlier as we had early dinner reservations and the pro shop attendant said that there wasn’t any room however when on the practice green a half hour went by with no one teeing off.

When we rounded the front nine, another foursome was allowed to play ahead that slowed the pace of play considerably.

This was the only negative as we just wished we could have played the last three holes.

Always an Immense Pleasure

Greens were impeccable, fairways were plush, wildlife was plentiful, and the drinks were tasty. We recommend a Transfusion.

Always a great course

I have played this course multiple times now. It’s always in great condition. I played later in the afternoon and GolfNow’s price was $40 cheaper than booking through the pro shop.
