Golfer Reviews
Great layout
Very enjoyable course to play, greens were a little slow but to be expected this time of year, they did roll true. I can't wait to play it again, friendly staff, good food, and fun track to play. I highly recommend.
Wife and I enjoyed our round of golf
Had played this course several times over the past 10 years, but hadn't played it for about two years.
Course was in very good shape. Greens were quite fast. Surprised that it wasn't more crowded on a beautiful Sunday Afternoon with temperatures in the mid 70's.
No way you could beat the superb deal offered by Golf Now.
Perfect Course in excellent condition
Enjoyed it thoroughly! Everything was wonderful-carts, greens, fairways, staff etc. There was even a refreshment cart on the course.
slow play bring dinner
we were held up on the first hole and it never ended. they need help to keep the pace of play up. We joined up with a single on the first hole, but the 4some in front were brutal. They played of the blues and should have been on the seniors. Last 6 or 7 holes might as well go home. No one can play that slow!!
It's to bad because it is a great course. Lots of interesting hole and lots to look at.
Great trac
Blue tees are challenging, 6900 yards, love the layout.
StrongRecommendation-GolfNowValue
Laurel Island Links is in tremendous condition & course has responded well from recent rain. It's much firmer & dryer than Jekyll Island courses & worth just an easy 20 minute drive from the Brunswick area for its fine lay out. Overseeding is complete & is already looking nice. Greens were smooth, true rolling at a moderate pace. The Davis Love course design is great, offering several tee choices to present a challenge to all levels of golfers. It's blend of openness & natural scenery lends itself to a wonderful experience. Club house staff was friendly. Our group booked on GolfNow took advantage of a "Hot Deal". When you can merge the GN deals with this course, it's as if they're giving golf away. Don't miss it!
GREAT COURSE ,FUN TO PLAY
THIS COURSE HAS GREAT SCENERY WITH SOME FUN AND CALLENGING HOLES, GOOD COURSE FOR THE MONEY.
View down 1st fairway is spectacular
Golf was our reason for being there but hard to miss the alligator, wood storks and roseate spoonbills to name a few of the sights as well as the surrounding marsh/estuary yellows in sharp contrast to the lush green fairway. The rest of the course did not disappoint!
Wow... Worth the ride!!
I'm from Jacksonville, my neighbor shared he liked the course, I went alone to check it out! Wow.... Unbelievable price meant low expectation, I was so wrong. Great scenery, matched up with some great guys, and course was challenging and rewarding! Tough pin placement, but fun all 18 hole. Greens and tee box, very nice. Greens, pretty fast and plenty of slopes, can make you feel like a PGA pro or break your putter!! Enjoy...
Mr.
It had rained for two days before we played, but the course drains well. The course conditions were great.
Love this course
We always enjoy playing here. Course is in great shape. Always stay for lunch. Cold beer and food is excellent.
Great October fall day.
Well worth the drive from Jacksonville.
Great layout in very good condition.
2 players, 18 holes, in 2:45 hours. 12:30 tee time
Very Nice Course
This course is very nice, and in very good condition. There were a few minor flaws in the greens, and it would only affect you, if you had to play through that area. Conditions overall were very good.
Fun course
Great course with enough variety to make it challenging. Not crowded and the course is in good shape. The staff at the bar makes you feel like you are walking into Cheers.
We love this course and wish it was in better shape
We both love this layout and like to play this course but it really wasn't in that good of condition. The greens were very slow and since it had rained alot in the past few weeks, the fairways were slow and the rough high. We will be back but only after a week or so of dry weather. It was cart path only so it was a little longer, time wise, to play.
Would play every day
Beautiful course in great shape. Lots of rain had course very wet, was cart paths only
Thumbs up
I definitely would recommend playing this course. Pace builds as you go because the back nine is a bit harder than the front. Wide open fairways, few hidden hazards and well maintained sand traps. Had an enjoyable day.
