Jekyll Island Golf Club - Indian Mound Course

Indian Mound is a favourite of mine. It's quite challenging and requires good planning on approach shots or one could easily find themselves in one of the numerous traps. The course is well maintained and the damp weather this year has resulted in lush fairways. Also be prepared to see many examples of wildlife, particularly deer which often stroll across fairways unperturbed by carts or golfers. On sunny days, gators can often be seen sunning themselves on the banks of the many ponds. Indian Mound is very walkable and can be played under 4 hours on most occasions.

Stopped in while on an RV road trip. The entire facility is well maintained with an extra friendly staff. After a shower we hit the putting green and driving range. Lou, the starter, set us up, and we teed off on a gorgeous course, which was the best value I have ever played. Everything was maintained and manicured, and the greens rolled beautifully. We play again on Monday!

everyone makes sure you are enjoying the experience

The greens were a bit on the slow side but that is expected for a course that gets as much play in a state park. The layout is straight-forward and there is not a lot of water hazards, but the ones that exist do come into play. It was in good shape for this time of year and you can't beat the price through Golf Now!

This course had a nice layout, great clubhouse and was in decent shape, excellent fairways but slow greens.

Beautiful. Manicured to perfection. There is absolutely nothing negative to be said about their entire operation; management, maintenance, staff or dining facility.

We played a couple days after the Georgia-Florida tournament. The course was in good shape. I couldn't tell they had just had a tournament with 350 players. The course was still pretty wet from the rain the day before, so some of the bunkers had packed sand/needed raking. They can't control the weather. Plenty of animals on the course. We saw alligators, deer, red tail hawks, turtles, etc. Great value for the money and the pace of play was excellent. We will definitely be back. Also, the Golfnow.com transaction was easy and didn't have any hitches.

me and a friend drove up from Jacksonville ( little over an hour )
and it was well worth it. One of the best courses I've ever played. No such thing as a bad lie. The whole course was in excellent condition. In fact the greens rolled so much more true than what I'm used to that it was tough to make a putt. Overall a very nice experience and I will be playing there again !!

Course played long today due to swirling winds. Often played two club wind into greens. Greens over seeded and in good condition. All bunkers needed attention.

Indian Mound features a pleasant layout and good course conditions. Length from the blues was not generally a problem, and the course played well in comparatively dry conditions--the comparison being between Indian Mound in the afternoon and Oleander in the morning a couple of days later [it would not be a surprise to learn that Indian Mound was two to three feet higher in general than Oleander, but I couldn't swear to it]. Pay attention to your hydration levels--if there's not much traffic on the course, you may not see a beverage cart, and the front 9 did not appear to offer much by way of watering stations.

Found the course to be friendly even if you can't hit it straight off the tee. Wide fairways and groomed greens made the experience rewarding. Appreciated the lightning warning system especially this time of year. They tend to pop up rather fast so it was good to know someone was watching so I could concentrate on my game.

Great shape considering recent aeration. Played in August - not many ppl out there bc it was summer. Played at my pace.

The course is in excellent condition and well maintained. Fairly friendly fairways, and minimal water but I found myself in a couple of "well-placed" bunkers. The setting is beautiful and roaming deer add to the atmosphere. If you can bear the mid-day heat, you should find little traffic on the course this time of year.

It is both a fair and challenging golf course. The fairways are very well maintained. The greens roll true and have enough changes in elevation to make reading them fun. The staff is very professional and courteous. It was a pleasure for mywife and I to play.

Greens need some work but overall is a nice course and layout

Everyone was very nice. The only thing that could have been better was if there had been more yardage markers.

The course is in really good shape. The greens were a touch slow but very playable, tee to green was excellent, and the bunkers were maintained. Overall very enjoyable and peaceful.

I played my round in early July, and I was impressed by the low prices for a Saturday afternoon. Two of the other courses were closed for green aeration, and it was obvious that Indian Mound had recently been aerated. Regardless of the aeration, they were not in great shape (bare patches, brown turf), which is surprising considering they are bermuda. However, the rest of the course was very well maintained, and the staff was very nice. A great golf experience, and I would recommend playing here.

The fairways are wide for any type of golfer. Excellant condition and very friendly staff. The greens were just aerated, so they were very slow. This was the only reason for a 4 on the review. The greens were bumpy and no a true roll. First time we have played the golf and will play again.

The course was in excellent condition. Wide fairways and not much trouble. Greens had recently been aerated but they still rolled very well. Pace of play was very good. The only reason I am not giving a five star rating is because there was very little drinking water on the course and no cart service on a Sunday morning. Other than that, everything was very nice.
