Jekyll Island Golf Club - Indian Mound Course
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.

Will play here often
Have enjoyed the friendly staff, have enjoyed the scenery and course conditions and I will come here as my first choice of golf courses on the Golden Isles. The course is fun and I enjoy the wildlife, the pace and the opportunity to play among the trees rather than golf course homes.
I admire the courses commitment to the environment.
Great course!
Great course, fun to play! Could use a bit less water on the fairways and greens. It has been fairly dry here and there were lots of soggy spots.
Features
The course was in great shape. It offered challenging and lengthy par 3's which requires a delicate shot selection sometimes over water. The par 5's were challenging as well especially going thru the wind. I enjoy every minute of our gathering.
Nice course at good price
I liked this course, especially at $20 pp. from Golfnow. It was in good shape, not busy and we finished in 3.5 hours. It is pretty easy, did not lose any balls. Wide fairways with bunkers the only real hazard.
Fun course
I like this course a lot. Challenging but not too difficult. Beautiful setting on Jekell Island lots of birds, deer, a few alligators.
Great value, lovely course
This is a very nice public course. Indian mound is really beautiful and the course is fun and challenging. Greens are a bit mossy and slow but the sand is good quality--if you are careless enough to get in! Highly recommend, especially for the $23 we paid for 18 holes and a cart.
Nice course
Was a nice course. For the amount of ppeople on the course we moved fairly well. Couple of hold ups. Traveled from Savannah and was unaware of six dollar fee to enter Jekyll island. Fairways were in great shape. Tee boxes were good shape. Some greens weren't in great shape however. Very hard to get used to.
Lovely course
Very good condition, beautiful surroundings and managed to play in just 2,5 hours as a singel golfer.
Nice course.
Everything was as advertised. Nice course and nice people.
Great Vacation Golfing
Really enjoyed our Tuesday Morning round on Indian Mound; we finished in 3.5 hrs for a twosome.. Fairways and greens are in great shape for this time of year. Enjoyed the course and view, lots of wild animals to meet you while your playing..Cant wait to come back and play again..
Great bargain
Good course, especially if you want to play at a relaxed pace. Enjoyed it all.
Awesome course!!
My daughter and I are both learning the game of golf. I have only taken lessons for about a year and my daughter only a few months. But, on this particular day we decided it was time to go it alone...no instructors! Indian MOund was our course choice. At the 1st hole we had a foursome in front of us and just as my daughter hit the first drive , another foursome (all men) came up behind. We both got a little uncomfortable, not wanting to make any one have to wait on us since we are both learning.
We decided that we would ask if another course was a little less crowded ( the club has 3 courses). The staff was kind enough to let us go to another course that had fewer golfers that day.
We started our game again on OLEANDER.
Never once did we feel rushed by any of the other golfers! The views were magnificent!
The price we got through GOLF NOW was terrific!!
Although our game was not that great by any means, the time we had together was amazing!!! We had a great day!!!
I would recommend Jekyll Golf courses to anyone!!
Casual golfing
We really enjoyed the course. The par 3s were challenging playing from the gold. We played the round in less than 4 hours. We only had to wait once or twice. I would certainly take friends with me to play there.
nice experience
You are welcomed by friendly people everywhere whether pro shop or restaurant. The course is in great shape despite a few rough patches on a couple of greens. Courses at Jekyll Island have been markedly improved since the new pro and staff were hired. Restaurant offers great breakfast and lunch. Also great products in pro shop.
Wish I lived closer
Very enjoyable round of golf. Course was in very good condition, pace was great. Staff very welcoming and helpful. I was on a weekend getaway. If I lived closer, I would definitely play here often.
Great Course
Everything went smoothly from arrival to tee off. Deceptively challenging course with areas being more confined than they appear to be. Deer running around the course made it more unique especially since they were not uncomfortable around people. Took the advice from another review and got the Patty Melt after our round....delicious.
enjoyable course
This course is in great condition. Plays faster than the other two at Jekyll. Greens are in good shape and read true.
Poor condition
The course has a beautiful setting but the greens were in poor condition.
Fun course
Course was in good shape. Greens had a few dead spots and weeds, but really rolled pretty well. Overall it was in really good shape. Folks there are always friendly! Beautiful views and a gator or two.
