A Longtime Favorite

We've stayed on Saint Simons Island for many years and join a local Brunswick club for the time we're here. But, we always try to take a day to play Sapelo Hammock as well. While the greens at this time of year aren't always pristine, the course is set in the marshes and includes a number of holes where the marsh truly challenges one's skills (or lack of same). A very nice layout with friendly staff.

Charming

This is a charming course with beautiful views. We have played it several times over the years but this time the conditions were a little rough. Some greens have a lot of damage. The fairways are hard and around the green there is often very little ground cover making chipping difficult. The sand traps have great sand however. The price was high considering that other courses in the area are the same price with much better conditions.

Used to be better

I played recently after a three year lapse and I was disappointed. Many of the greens have a slick fungal illness unfortunately. Maybe it was caused by winter weather. The people there were very nice as always.

Sapalo

Nice layout for a relaxing afternoon of golf. Pace of play was good, under 4 hours.. A couple of greens were extremely wet and some were turning dark brown, esp. # 9. Overall a nice course and fun to play.

Great day on the course...

Loved the course today, as I do every time I play there. The greens were my only reason for not giving 5 stars for every aspect of the course. Front nine greens look like they are trying to recover from our extreme cold in late December and in January. Back nine greens were lush and in great shape...just needed a haircut. Well worth the drive and the price!

Never disappoints

Enjoy the course. Feels like you are the only one out there since the holes are so spaced out. Love the bluff and marsh views from many of the holes. Very beautiful. And the gators are always fun to see. Greens were inconsistent. Some grassy and slow, others were fast and lacking grass. But a truly enjoyable round, nonetheless. Staff very friendly and welcoming, too. A great day!
