Nice track

Sort of a hidden gem surrounded by all the high-end courses near St. Simons. Great layout, nice fairways, and fast greens. Tough pin placements on the day I played…must have been some tourney the previous day. Will certainly play again.

Beautiful day

Loved the course, tough greens, fun layout, only negative is that the cart paths need repair. Knowing how costly this is maybe a few holes at a time might help... still rank this course high. Loved hitting from the top of the hills!!!

Nice Course!

Fairways and greens were in great shape. Nice course, nice folks. I think range balls should be complimentary. The range facilities were so-so. I do recommend playing this course.

Maintenance levels

As with most public courses in the area the maintenance levels are an issue. The tee boxes are small, which is fine, but the ground is hard as a rock and the tee markers are rarely in place after being mowed. Three or four of the greens had just had a sand application, which is good for the health of the green, but that should be part of the communication of course conditions when booking a tee time. It wouldn't stop my playing the course, but thats a communication issue that could be addressed. Great layout, and elevated tee boxes rock.

Always Fun

This course is always consistently maintained, greens roll great and my favorite part is it's just an interesting layout with some memorable holes that make you think. Weekday morning pace of play was quick. Can't comment on weekend pace as I stick to weekday golf mostly. Clubhouse service is very nice as well. Never had a bad time at Heritage Oaks.

If you like courses that are wide open…

Well maintained greens and fairways. Nice clubhouse, great food available. Accuracy, not distance, is the key to posting a low round. Greens were soft and putted true. Will play again if I’m ever in the area

Memorable Course

Fantastic design on this golf course, lots of holes that stick in your mind. In fact, there are only two holes that I would describe as generic. Turf conditions were great. Definitely coming back to this one.
