Sapelo hammock

What a hidden gem. This course was so much fun to play. Beautiful live oak trees lined the fairways. The marsh views were outstanding...and the wildlife was spectacular. Course was very fair but challenging. We drove from Hilton Head as the courses on the island have become too expensive. This was a fairly priced course and in much better shape then most courses in HHI.

disappointed

I don't know what has happen to greens around our area (Savannah) but they have suffered some kind of fungus or something, but the greens at Sapelo Hammock were in bad shape! The back 9 the greens were better. What I was also disappointed in that the course was charging full price and you did not get what you paid for.!

This is a beautiful course and I would highly recommend it but not at this time, Greens are important to every golfer and when they are terrible, you don't enjoy all the beauty this course offers

Winter wasn’t pleasant

Like most courses in the area winter took its toll

I’m certain this place will have the greens speedy fast and fun soon

Regardless

It’s like a film set here

Like the Course!

Like the course!!! It is a pleasure to play.

The Clubhouse staff is so very nice and the lunches are great.

Greens were a little hard due to sanding but Maintenace is required. A bit disappointed with a greens keepers comments towards an elderly

Gentleman.... I hope the keeper was just having a bad day. We DO like this course and Will play it again.

Greens were top dressed

I wish they had the course flagged to let us know that they recently top dressed the greens. There was heavy sand on most of the greens on the front 9. The fairways and tee boxes are in good shape.

Greens are coming along

The course is beautiful as it winds through the oak hammocks and the salt marshes. About 80% of the greens were in very good shape with a few on the mend as evidenced by the seedlings coming up. I would expect them to be in excellent condition later in the summer of 2021 and expect to return for another round. The staff seemed a little confused about their reservation system and charged me for our rounds that my buddy paid for on line. I will be calling them tomorrow to get it straitened out.

Green paint

I've been playing this course since it first opened and never had a complaint. That stops here. It is in terrible shape. Every green is damaged and damaged badly. All the green paint in the world can't hide it. We paid $59 for this disaster. Clubhouse staff didn't seem to care when I asked why the conditions are so bad. I hope Sapelo can't get it back in the great shape it had been for many years. Save your money for now.

Good course

Good course. Was fun to play. Has some par 3’s going over the marsh that make it fun. Overall the course was in good condition. A few greens were a little rough. It’s a good course for the money if you willing to drive a little bit to play it. I shoot in the mid 80’s but the variety of distances from tee box’s will make it fun for any level golfer !
