Surprising gem

This is a course that meanders through a neighborhood and among the coastal marshes. The cost is low, the value is high. The greens are relatively small but they seemed quite true. The staff was lovely. Only blemish is range balls that are older than dirt. I'd play it again in a heartbeat.

Hidden gem

We played on a Saturday morning. Weather was superb.

Right from the time we arrived everyone was incredibly friendly and attentive.

We ended up playing with a couple of members who were incredibly hospitable and shared their knowledge, and beer.

Would recommend to anyone.

Challenging course, but manageable and fun.

It really feels like you’re out in the woods of Georgia. Beautiful.

10/10 Must play course on Georgia’s coast

From the time you walk in the staff are phenomenal. It’s a very welcoming and friendly environment. Everyone speaks to you. Everyone was helpful. Range balls are included with your round. The course is very well taken care of. It’s not overly packed with people just rushing you along. The 9th hole crosses the clubhouse so you can stop for a drink or snack. There are restrooms all along the course that are extremely clean and taken care of. Outside of the golf the food here is much better than I’ve had at other courses. They had an event the evening of play and still made food to order. I came here somewhat with the intent to get a membership after playing. I was sold on this before I even stepped back outside.

Feb. 9, 2022 Review

Overall I give Sapelo GC a 3 1/2 star rating well on its way to a 4. The course sits on the marsh where mossy oaks & beautiful Atlantic Ocean views are plentiful, scene alone would make it a 4. Staff super friendly and free range balls is always a plus. Layout is great, challenging on most holes. What brings the course to a 3 1/2 is all bunkers were literally under construction. Any course off the water should have immaculate bunkers, playable bunkers at best possible which was not the case here. And secondly the greens weren’t in the best of shape. Don’t get me wrong, not furry, no fungus spots, but more so the green spray coloring on a solid surface. Again, for a course with this location, the money has got to go in the right places. Overall, 3 1/2 stars on the way to 4. Definitely would play again for the price, $30 - $45 you won’t beat it!!!

Sapelo review

First ones out on a Friday morning.Course is a good layout. Greens are in good shape for Febuary

I was surprised the cart paths are gravel not paved.

The very last hole is hard with the ditch across the fairway so close to the green.

I really enjoyed the round and am planning to return.

Hidden coastal gem

Halfway between Brunswick and Savannah lies a hidden coastal gem called Sapelo Hammock. Just 20 minutes off of I-95 and worth the drive It won't overpower you with it's length which means everything is in range and that makes it fun. Plenty of water and marsh that come into play. Enjoy marsh views and coastal wildlife while you meander through the Shellman Bluff neighborhood. The staff is friendly and are genuinely happy to have you there.

A Hidden Gem

I stay on St. Simons every winter and manage to play this course a few times during my visit. It’s about a 45-60 minute drive and not that easy to find, but worth the trip.

The course is challenging enough for a mid handicapper, in nice shape, and rarely crowded. The price also is very reasonable. I’ll continue to visit!!
