Fun Course
Nice course and fund to play. It offers good challenge, the greens are nice, fast, and undulated. The course was a bit wet in some areas due to the amount of rain we got and the weekend. Would recommend.
Beautiful Course
First time my wife and I play at this course and we enjoyed our round. Course is in great condition, greens are fast and very undulated, which is what we like. Staff is very friendly. Amenities are very clean. We are planning to play agains in the nest few days. We recommend this course.
Great value
Played here for 10 years and course is in best shape ever. Price is very low for quality of course.
Nice time at Laurel Island
First time playing and was very, very impressed. Fair test with some nice views. Condition was excellent tee to green. Some long walks between holes so carts may be a good idea. Pro shop staff particularly knowledgeable and helpful. Worth the trip!
Great course
Best shape this course has ever been. Great value.
Wonderful Golf Outing at Bargain rates
Today’s (Nov. 6) visit to Laurel Island links was wonderful. The overcast skies & moderate breeze felt great. Staff was very welcoming & course was well maintained. Greens rolled smooth, true & moderately slow. Recent rain was absorbed & cart use was not restricted. Greens were firm despite recent rain. Club house facilities, pro shop & locker rooms, including their “19th hole” for refreshments were very nice. Our tee time was just past noon & pace of play was not impeded by anyone. Course coolers were filled with cold water on the course to stay hydrated. I’m very thankful course has chosen to participate with Golf Now for several daily tee times. Its a great incentive to play often. Location is very easy to get to from JAX area or SE Georgia - just 10 minutes east of I-95, in Kingsland.
Great shape
Played here for over 12 years and course is in the best shape it has ever been. People are friendly and the pace of play is good. Great value for the price. Second and third holes are very visual looking over the marsh.
Fine course...handles rain fine
Always a treat. Staff are super nice. Course is in super condition
Rainy interlude
The staff is wonderful. The starter brought us a cart as we were driving up and gave us a bucket for the driving range. There’s a nice club house restaurant, where you can order lunch for when you finish the front 9. It’s a beautiful island golf course with marsh and water hazards and (for me) magnetic bunkers. The fairways and rough were well cared for and most of the greens were in excellent shape, only two or three balding around the edges. We got caught in a 20-minute downpour, but we waited it out and the remaining seven holes were still quite playable. Warmly recommended place.
Always Fun
The course played tough on the front during some breezy weather, but was still a fair test. Fairways and greens were in good/great shape, but a few tee boxes could use some new grass. The greens were running true, but not very fast.
It's always worth coming out to play here.
