Unfortunately not positive

This is the 4th year we have played a round at Sapelo Hammock. Unfortunately this year we were very disappointed. The layout is good. The staff is very friendly. However the course is not in good condition. Very little grass in the fairways making for consistently tight lies. And the greens are terrible. Painting does not make a green better. The bugs are also terrible. We will probably not be back and would certainly not recommend. Sorry to give such a negative review but....

Georgia Coast Secret

I was very surprised to pull in the parking lot at 8:00am and be the first car in the parking lot. I said what am I missing?? Well, nothing! Very nice layout, good condition and very scenic golf course. Highly recommend this golf course to enjoy the Georgia coast with several views of the marsh.

Good day of golf at Sapelo Hammock

Enjoyed this course 1st time playing.

Course conditions were average but it seems they are working on improving the place. It was obvious they are making efforts.

The course itself as to the layout was great. I enjoyed it very much.

It was well worth the money and I would definitely stop here again.

Thank you.

Great early season

Wonderful condition being the beginning of March. We only played 9 holes because of our time issues. Course in good condition and fun to play. I’ve played there before off and on over 10 years, and I believe it’s the best it has been
