Great layout and pace of play.
Conditions were very wet at no fault of the facility. I look forward to playing again in better weather conditions.
Great course except when it rains
The course is set up to challenge the best golfers but by playing the forward tees a senior golfer can have a great time and score well. When last played, it had rained and had to play using cart path only which was not fun for an 85 and 77 year old player. Still played the round in under three hours. Hole number 15 (a par 5) was closed due to redoing; had to play and island green which was a par three. Still had a great time.
Top 5 Courses You Can Play in Golden Isles
The layout is interesting and will challenge players of all handicap levels. The condition of fairways and greens was a pleasant surprise, more typical of a private club.
The course while surrounded by homes still provides a tranquil setting on Oak Grove Island which enhances the experience. The price-value of this course places it in my top 5 in the golden isles.
Nice track
The course overall was in good shape. The greens however were slow and bumpy. I do understand why though, as it was 100 degrees when we played. They have done a lot of work in getting the course back to playable condition. This course has a good layout and some pretty golf holes. Make sure you bring plenty of balls, it has plenty of water and marsh to navigate around.
Cerebral course
This course lends itself to all kinds of golfers. It is all about shot placement due to hazards all around. Golfer must think one to two shots ahead. There are some grip and rip fairways but look out for hazards like fairway bunkers, saw grass, and water. Pack some extra balls. greens were recently aerated but still in good shape. Beautiful coastal views along the course. challenging par 4's with water in front of green.
Lots of water
Only complaint was the confusion and back up on the 10 th par three substituted for the repair of #17. Way to many people on tee box and waiting, way to many people on green. Need to have much more organization to ovoid the confusion and hold up.
Great course
This course is in great condition!! It will presents different elevation at the tee. It offers long par 3s and short par 5s. Majority of the shots required distance shots. Waters and crab grass outline the course. The strong wind will put all hazards into play. Great resort course with a better price.
Worth the trip
A very nice course with friendly staff. Always seem to be trying to improve the course. Had one whole closed for maintenance but have an extra island green hole to fill in the gap. Great value!
Marvelous and fun course!
We played this course on our way to watch the TPC. What a marvelous and fun course! Great condition! Greens were immaculate; fairways beautiful; tees perfect! The only problem might be the sand traps...1/2 inch of sand on top of hardpan. Lots of hazards, but plenty of room to maneuver around. We will likely do this course again on one of our trips to Florida.
The course is very aesthetic with many water and marsh views.
The course is in excellent condition. The greens are well maintained and roll true. The course is challenging but not extremely difficult. There is water on almost every hole. I would highly recommend this golf course for the price since it is a great value.
Great turnaround in course conditions
I have played this course over the past 15 years and it is in the best shape its ever been. This is because they have finally found a greens keeper that really knows what he's doing. In the past they've tricked this course up with planting grasses in the middle of fairway landing areas. Made for circus golf and a very frustrating experience that caused many locals to abandon it as a regular loop. The greens had previously been a very bland mixture of soft greens and slow rolls. The greens now roll according to their intended undulations and provide for some challenging putts. I played from the blue tees as this is not a bombers course (6265 yds) and will make you think about which club to pull from your bag off the tee. Fairway shots into these greens also give you pause as to how close you want to shoot at the pin and risk bogey or worse. Good job to the ownership and Travis for improving the course and getting it into great shape.
Out of town guest
Tee boxes, fairways and greens in excellent condition.
Greatly improved
Haven't played this course in a long time...I had heard they had made some dramatic course renovations....folks taking care of the course who had training at Ocean Forest and Sea Island....what a great job they have done...well worth every penny.
Much improved!
It had been several years since I had played this course. The course is in great shape with the greens in near perfect condition. Many improvements have been made to this beautiful sprawling golf course. It's first rate, highly recommend.
Course is improving
New superintendent is making needed changes but course has a little ways to go before I will recommend it.
HeritageOaks-WillPlayItAgainSoon
Course is in excellent condition. Travis & the other grounds crew continue to make a positive difference. Club house staff are friendly. Pre-payed a 1 pm GN special & almost felt guilty for taking advantage of probably the nicest public course in the Golden Isles. We could see other players occasionally, but pace was quick & unobstructed. GPS on carts make club selection easy. Continuing improvements have taken "grassy hazards" away; which a very welcome thing for almost all players. We'll be back soon!
Course is changing
We have been playing this course since it opened. We travel to St. Simon Island every year around Easter. They have made several changes to the course since last year that have improved the course tremendously. They are offering a March/April special - 2 golfers with cart for $40. Can't beat that. Hole #11 under construction so they were using the Island green 19th hole. We played as a 2some at 8:15 and finished in 3 hours. Great Day.
Much improved
This course is much improved. The owner has spent a lot of effort to really make this a fun course to play. If you have not been here lately you need to play it again. The conditions are great and the greens are the best ever!
Course I would recommend
We enjoyed playing the course. It was in good condition and a great value for your money. It had a nice layout with bunkers and a few forced carries. I would play it again. The staff was very accommodating .
