The 18-hole Laurel Island Links in Kingsland, Georgia is a public golf course that opened in 1996.

The course features 4 sets of tees for different skill levels.

This design by PGA Tour player Davis Love III is quite remarkable. Laurel island resides on the banks of the vast Crooked River marsh that provides a stunning backdrop for holes two, three, and six.

The second nine roams inland working toward a secluded section of pine forest. The course is softly shaped and tinged in gentle southern atmosphere, opened in 1997. There is a light touch and quiet interaction with nature. You can play a beautiful, meditative golf at Laurel Island Links Laurel Island is approximately 25 minutes north of Jacksonville, FL. From Jacksonville take I-95 north to Georgia exit 6 and head east for two miles. Laurel Island Parkway will be on the left.

Laurel links

Laurel links is course that offers some beautiful marsh views and some decently forgiving fairways. I played the white tees and at times they where basically blue tees because they where literally right next to them. I found the course to be enjoyable. My drive is nothing to be impressed with but often times would leave me around 150 in. The par 5s are challenging. Some of the par threes can be as well if the wind picks up. All in all good value for sure. Only one green was really ruff, the rest where full of undulations and where not fast by any means. Probably because it was raining all week. The best deal is on golf now app. I pad almost twice the amount at the course.

Good value

Good course layout and design. For the most part course was in good shape. Greens were recently top dressed so putting was difficult but this is to be expected. Tee to green pretty well maintained. I would play again.

World Cup Review

My friend was visiting from VA and we decided to book a tee time. Course was mostly empty. Staff was friendly and clubhouse is a nice place to relax and grab a drink and bite. We went off early. Course was in good shape with the exception of the greens. There was a lot of inconsistency between greens. Some holes the greens were so spotty it was impossible to get a true roll. Others were in excellent shape. The putting green was in similar shape. Some of the issues could have been mitigated by pin placement. Overall, we had a great round and experience.
