Go elsewhere

OMG. $50 to play this hole. No break in costs. Tee box and fairways have little to no grass. Greens are painted to look nice but are in horrible condition. Played here for years but this is the worst I have seen it. Not worth the money.

Hidden gem with marsh views and giant oaks!!

Cold and windy Saturday afternoon. First time playing the course. Had small lunch at clubhouse (limited selections) but prepared hot and fresh. The gentleman tending the bar (used for golfer check in and pro shop and bar) was very nice and had some great intel on the course. He did let us know of some hidden hazards and where to miss on certain holes (wish I would have been able to heed the warnings). Fairways and greens in typical conditions for this time of year. Greens rolled true and a little on the fast side. Can't wait to come back in growing season. Bring bug spray. If you get the chance make the drive and play this course, you will love it.

Nice marsh views

We play here around 8-10 times a year, this is the worst condition I can remember. It was hard to tell the difference between the fairway & rough, the fairways were dirt & weeds. The greens were patchy too & the fringes around the greens. I know it’s winter time, but other courses around our area aren’t having the same problems. We’ll be back again when it gets back in better shape. Also when people write reviews, please write the truth so people don’t travel to play a course that has a 5 star review & is nowhere near 5 star..

If it’s this nice now, I can’t wait until spring

Just a great course, laid out in old live oak forests and marshes. Grass is a little thin in spots, but a few more warm days like today and it will return. Very nice folks running the place, as well as friendly volunteers who were working on patching thin spots. They all take pride in this course, as they should. Hope to make this place a regular part of my golf game.

Great Value and Enjoyable Experience

I never had played this course, but was told it was worth the drive from. St. Simons. I couldn’t agree more !!

This course is an incredible value....the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, the course generally was in good condition, and it was a nice challenge for my mid handicap level. While the fairway turf was a bit thin in spots, the greens were in good condition and rolled pretty true. I’ll be back down the road.

Worth the ride

I decided to make the 2.5 hour drive to this course and it was well worth the effort. The 8th and 17th holes alone made it a great course but there were many other memorable holes.

When I finished, the sun was setting over the marsh affording the most spectacular views, Just beautiful. I put my clubs into the car, changed my shoes and decided to use the facilities before starting the long drive back. As I walked up the several stairs to the clubhouse, two of the members on the deck stood, said hello and asked if I had enjoyed my round.

We chatted for several minutes and the sincerity of their hospitality was obvious and greatly appreciated. I can't wait to get back there.

great course

very friendly staff. Course is challenging. Tboxes and some fairways were a little thin but for winter conditions, not unacceptable. Course if visually stunning, winding between massive moss draped oaks. Will definitely play again.
