First Time Playing

Just didn’t deliver on Huge expectations.

Was looking for something different. Drove an hour from St Simons to play. Was hoping to find a hidden gem. Ended up find a course in which one hole was completely shut down due to water/flooding. I realize this is not owner fault. What was rather disappointing were several fairway in need of cutting. Also we got behind two guys that were VERY elderly and painfully slow and no Marshall on the course to get us thru or monitor pace of play. It was over 90 degree and made the slow play even more miserable. Lastly because it took so long to play we were gonna order lunch in the dining room but soon learned the dining room is closed on Monday.

The cart guy and the Pro shop attendants were both very friendly and couldn’t have been nicer.

Consistent, positive golf experience

Sapelo is a nice course that wanders through southeast Georgia’s low country. It’s about 40 minutes from Savannah but worth the drive. The staff is friendly, range balls are free and plentiful, carts are in good shape, practice facilities better than average. A few houses are on the course but they don’t come into play.

There has been quite a bit of rain lately but the course restricted carts to paths on just a few holes. This time I saw two gators sunning themselves by one of the ponds.

Always a good experience and good value playing at Sapelo.

Course was in good shape considering all the rain we have had. Some of the greens were spotty but most then ran nicely and smooth! I always enjoy playing this course!
