Bacon Park's greens were still recovering in August 2018, but they have plenty of interesting contours. This is the 15th. Photo submitted by TimGavrichGP on 11/07/2018

Winter refuge
The conditions of the course were moderate in as much as it is still winter. Was worth the price for 18 holes with a cart.

Disappointed
This course is in need of some true love! The greens are horrible ! For the course to be owned by the city, the greens alone should be playable! I know it’s winter time but other operators in the area seem to have playable surfaces.

Must Play
Having read Tom Coyne’s book “A Course Called America” I had to check out Bacon Park as I passed thro Savannah. What a treat! I’ve played a number of Donald Ross courses in North and South Carolina and this is a real example of his art. Course is not in pristine condition but the bones of a great course are there. Will definitely play again next time I’m in town. Thanks for the tips Ben!

Cheaper courses with much better conditions
Fairways were horrible. I understand it is January but other courses in the area are in so much better shape and the green fees much cheaper. I was putting from 15 yards off the green as the fairways were putting just as fast as the greens. Love the layout. The man in the pro shop was great, but 50 bucks to play on a dirt track is not something I plan on doing again. Unfortunate.

Not worth the money
Greens horrible, no cart paths but carts have very touchy GPS. This is a Municipal course but Savannah has obviously neglected it. Courses in the surrounding areas are in much better condition. At this moment, play anywhere but here. Hope they come together to get this course in better shape.

GREENS NEED SERIOUS ATTENTION!!!!!
I remember this course from my high school days and City Amateur Tournaments. The greens are in very much of work. The fees are to high for the course condition. It's a shame to see this great public course in this condition. My suggestion would be to close the course over the next 2 - 3 months and work to get this well known course in the playing condition it once was.
Donald Ross Course needs some TLC
I’m a big fan of playing Ross courses. IN savannah, there are few public courses. The experience of playing a DR course is fun but the course needs some loving! Fairways in spots bare and forced to roll a ball to a grass area. Rough was multi level but due to the cutter missing areas, Greens had large repair areas but did not affect putting. I’d rather see the greens keepers to blow off the small stuff off greens. They rolled ok. Sand soft but the grass cutter used the bunkers as the place to blower cut grass on numerous holes. Tee Boxes level. Loved the openness. Im going to play it again tomorrow because of convenience, value and it was actually a fun course once you accept that its needed TLC. Consider it a rescue dog and just enjoy the layout. You’ll get a fair play. Practice green and chipping areas should be closed and deemed under repair!
from bad to horrible
course has been through rounds of supposed improvement, and it is not working. the greens continue to worsen, most fairways have sparse grass with weeds and uneven cut lengths. the sand traps were unkempt and hard bottomed. this course is in need of a real grounds keeper and it isn't likely to happen. also ,they use gps for their carts and the gps system is totally ludicrous. makes navigating the course almost impossible and adds to the overall dislike and frustration for this place. this course is bad and bound to stay this way for a very long time.
