Jekyll Island Golf Club - Pine Lakes Course
About
Jekyll Island Golf Club offers 64 holes of golf, making it the largest public golf facility in Georgia. The courses are a favorite amongst locals and visitors since it's hard to beat the affordable rates. The club features three 18-hole courses and one nine-hole course. Pine Lakes is the longest of the three full-length courses at 6,700 yards from the back tees, though the course is not lengthy by any means. The final hole is the only one on the course with considerable length. The original layout was created in 1968 and underwent a major renovation in 2002. It is similar to the Indian Mound Course, which sits adjacent to it, but Pine Lakes has a more modern bunkering system. Fairway bunkers come into play for long hitters and the bunkers that frame the greens demand accurate approach shots.

Sand traps need more sand…a few were mainly dirt. Otherwise the course was very good. We played on a Sunday and the pace of play was very slow.
Played twice
I played this course after the heavy rain ended and the again after the course had dried out. Over all it is in nice shape although you will find a good many of the white and gold tee boxes are bare. There are a few greens with bad spots as well. If I had paid the $70 green fees listed I would have giving it a lower rating. I used a pay now and save plus my $10 monthly credit. This is a great course for $45. It would not pay $70 to play it though.
Unexpected surprise
We came up from Ponte Vedra and friends from Atlanta and played on Pine Lakes. First time I played the course in eight years and was pleasantly surprised, just goes to show you can’t believe all the reviews as we play golf a lot and this course was very nice and in great shape.
Great day at Pine Lake!
Course is in great shape and the greens are rolling true. Some weeds in the rough, but only on a few holes. The gators were not interested in us and the deer were everywhere. Beautiful morning!
Greens in good shape & rolled great. Fairways & tee boxes thin with very little grass!
Course Condition
Very disappointed in the condition of the course Pine Lakes. No grass on fairways only weeds. Greens weren’t great either. Played the course main times in the past 10 years and that is the worst I have seen it.
Bag guys need lessons on how to put golf bags on a power cart
fairway conditions were deplorable and difficult to find any grass to move your ball to. greens were in good condition. overall, the course lacked maintenance and consistency in conditions. very disappointing.
All 3 courses have soft fairways. There is no roll for your shots.
Pleasant resort course.
We enjoyed a leisurely round on a resort course. Many tee boxes and friendly fairways. A nice course at a fair rate.
Nice day
On Pine Lakes. Greens pure and nice fair pace. Bermuda fairways always a bit different. Not great lies but that’s the game. Bunkers outstanding. Fairly open front, back a bit narrower. 4 hour change round with walkers in front.. Wonderful facility with ample practice areas. Good bang for the buck this time of year. Monster gator on nine near lakes edge and my ball. Sound asleep with one eye open, he told me play away.
