Jekyll Island Golf Club - Indian Mound Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Jekyll Island Golf Club is Georgia's largest public golf facility, offering three 18-hole courses and a nine-hole course. Two of the 18-hole courses, Pine Lakes and Indian Mound, have similar characteristics since they sit side by side. Both are younger than the Oleander, which is considered the toughest of the three and served as host to the Georgia Open for four years. The Indian Mound Course is the shortest of the three at just under 6,500 yards from the back tees but that is not to say you won't run into a fair amount of challenges. The layout features lengthy par 5s that you wouldn't expect given the yardage, and the par 4s offer scoring opportunities for those who take advantage of the short shots into the green. The Indian Mound Course's main challenges are the undulating greens and abundance of sand.

Great game
I met a new player named Dennis he shot an 83 we had a very good time The course was great the weather was great and the cot girl was right on time
Jekyll Golf
Indian Mounds course was in great shape today. Fairways were generous in width, rough was about 2-3 inches high and the greens were in good shape. The course is not too long from the tips, 6400 yds. Played early and finished in 2.5 hrs. with a cart. For a “Hot Deal” in Golfnow - it was a great round for the price. Plenty of wildlife as well. Wind can be very deceptive, trees typically block out what you feel at ground level but can eat up a ball if you get it above the tree line.
HORRIBLE CONDITION
1. Not informed of conditio
2. No rain but wet, wet, wet! Did I mention it was wet?
3. Puddles & small ponds on fairways & sand traps
4. Cart path only extend pace by 1 hour.
5. Horrible, horrible overgrown rough
If I could give a ZERO star rating I would’
Great time
Course was in great shape and absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed the time playing here. It’s such a wonderful location. I will definitely come back to try out the other courses.
Indian Mound
All in all, a good course. It was pretty busy and we were waiting on 2 groups ahead of us on the entire back nine. Again, it was a descent course.
Overrated
Saw the course was a 4 star “golf resort” and only being an hour away I figured I’d give it a try. Pull up to the bag drop and unloaded our clubs while 2 employees sat about 10’ away watching instead of grabbing them for us. Driving range was closed so no warm up balls. Tee boxes were thin and overgrown. Fairway grass was average, although wet from rain this week but what can you do. Greens were the worst part of the whole experience. Slower than Christmas and you couldn’t differentiate them from the fairways. Pace of play was also slow for the front as we were stuck behind a couple foursomes of hacks rolling the ball from one side of the fairway to the other. Was able to book the round for $35 a person but would never pay that much again to play there. Also important to note you must pay $8 a car for a parking pass for Jekyll Island. Not saying it’s the worst I’ve ever played but there is much nicer courses available for the money.
Nothing special
None of the Jekyll Island courses have completely recovered from Irma damage, but the fairways seemed quite sticky on this course and the greens were the slowest of the 3 sets. The layout is nothing outstanding, with a few moderately interesting holes.
Great day of golf
The course was in awesome shape and played very, very fair.
Lovely course
Terrific setting for golf, and the course was in great shape
Indian mounds
A very good experience. Price was great. Course and staff were very good.
I would definitely do again. I will also continue to use Golf Now.
Nice Course
Course was in good shape and staff was very friendly.
Great value
Bought this on a hot deal. A great buy!! After a foursome let us play through we never saw anyone.
The course
Love the layout play from the white tees. The only thing I got rained out after the 10th hole. I hope to finish before I go back home but the staff said the rain out pass was good for a year. The staff was GREAT!!!!!!
Nice track, poor condition
This course would have been very nice had the conditions been better. The greens were very fuzzy, causing them to be slow. A couple holes had severe damage to the greens. Most tee boxes were un mown, which isn't a huge deal, but it isn't how it is supposed to be. There was no one playing on Memorial Day, so we flew around without hitch, which made the course more enjoyable. Jekyll Island is a gorgeous place and they have a gold mine if they put more money towards the conditioning the courses. Overall, it's not bad golf for $20 bucks. I wouldn't pay much more for it.
Great layout
This was the second time in 3 weeks that my fiancé and I drove 1.5 hours to golf Jekyll Island. Staff is super friendly and courses are in great condition. There were a few greens that need some work but it didn't affect the way they played. No over crowding or waiting for groups in front of us. We played Indian Mound this visit and the Pine Lakes the last. Will definitely be back again for a great round of golf.
This was my 2nd Jekyll
Will be back to play the Pines next and combo it with the Dunes. Everything was as I anticipated a beautiful somewhat challenging course amongst the trees. You would not know there was civilization around you. If you are looking for serenity and a great day out this is the place to go
