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.

Course review
Great staff and it's a good course. I feel that it's a bit overpriced considering the course conditions. Overall, it's a nice course and I would play it again if im ever around the area but I wouldn't go out of my way to play.
Poooor greens
Even at a reduced rate l didn't think the course was worth what l paid.
Ying and Yang
Course location was great, course looks nice, until. Tees and greens need a LOT of help. If you like bumpy putting, this is the course for you. Doubt we will go back.
Greens really bad
Pine Lakes was so nice Indian Mounds was a disappointment. Greens were really bad. Hopefully these will be replaced when Grand Dunes opens.
Course is not appropriate for play
Greens are horrible. I failed to look at reviews prior to booking and showing up. What mistake. Greens are not playable. Weeds all through greens.
How could the employees not mention to costumers that booked this course?. Worst greens I have ever played.
Looked at other course on the site while playing. They were playable. Next day I went to a different area to play because my respect for the workers at the facility is disappointing for not pointing out the conditions.
Horrible Greens
This course should not be open for public play at this time. The greens are horrible. I can’t believe nobody mentioned how bad it was in the clubhouse.
Pine lakes
Played pine lakes. Was in good shape. Some fairways a bit thin. Very very hot day and little water on course Overall, the re-do of pine lakes was nice. Pretty good shape, some bunkers were hard though.
Very Neglected
I haven't played this course in quite some time. The greens and bunkers were in very poor condition. It seems like Indian Mound has been neglected with the recent renovations to Pine Lakes and the revamp underway with Oleander. I hope they show some love to this course soon. It was not worth the price I paid to play it in its current state
Play pine lakes instead
This course is in terrible shape. The greens are horrible for the money not even close to worth it. Just play Pine Lakes if you’re in Jekyll Island.
Some of the worst greens I've seen
Greens are REALLY bad.... most had dead spots everywhere. They positioned the holes away from them, but still had to putt over the bad parts some times....
Severely downgraded
Have golfed here at Jekyll island many times over the years and on all the courses available. This year Indian Mounds is in very bad shape. Overall the fairways are ok however the traps are not maintained and the greens are horrendous. Frankly, they should pay us to play there.
Needing lots of work.
Course Features
Aside from the poorly kept greens, I loved the course
Horrible Condition
Greens were full of weeds, not burmuda grass. Many of the greens had large bare spots with no grass or weeds. The cart paths had giant potholes & if near tee or green when trying to avoid one the GPS would stop the cart. The driving range was overpriced at $7.50 for a small bucket of balls & required to hit from a mat & not real grass. I've played better conditions at course costing less than $20 per tee time.
Really?
The putting green is tiny & difficult to find a 5 foot putt that will have 100% grass. The greens on the course were horrible! Multiple bare spots on every green & it looked like more weeds than grass.
The cart paths had more potholes than anyone could avoid. I've played public courses in cow pastures that were in better shape than this course!!!
Conditions atrocious
The greens were horrible, fairways as bad, not worth the price. Even charged a rider fee for spouses. Not playing here again.
