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

Really enjoyed this course excellent service and staff
Pretty Beat Up
Nice convenient location to Savannah, but this course has seen better days. Fairways were hard and the greens bumpy (from reading other reviews it sounds like they were aerated in the past few months). Has the potential to be a nice course, but needs work.
The layout is a bit odd in that most courses swing back by the clubhouse after 9 holes. Not this course, you don’t see the clubhouse until you finish all 18.
For a duffer or learner, might be a place to go, but for an experienced golfer, much to be desired..
Needs A LOT of work
Pretty terrible conditions. Course is worth about $20-25, but they charge twice that. Instead of hiring better/more greenskeeping staff, they decided to buy a fleet of GPS nanny carts that, due to the tight layout between green and next tee, force you to back up all the time cause they aren’t programmed correctly.
The greens were terrible. Recently aerated, but looks like if they had rolled them they could have been far less bumpy. Some greens have huge bare patches, and the speed from hole to hole was wildly inconsistent. If you want to charge that much money, the greens HAVE to be good. I can hit an iron off of a crummy fairway, but putting on bad greens is just annoying.
The staff are friendly, and I love the layout otherwise it would be a 1-star considering they charge residents $40. Pretty absurd. I can play courses in Hilton Head that are twice as nice for that price.
Do better, Bacon Park, or lower your rates if you want to continue being a crummy course. I might try again in 6 months, but this round left an awful taste in my mouth.
Review of course, not my game
Nice public course, due to winter conditions, Bermuda grass was mostly brown. Greens were bumpy due to recent aeration- this can happen at any course due to proper maintenance. I like layout, shorter course and wide open in most areas.

Everything about day was fine except greens had not came back from aeration
Fun, Short Golf Course
I enjoy playing at this course. It is a fairly short golf course, but it does provide a good challenge for beginners and intermediate level players. I will be playing this course fairly often moving forward.
Don’t waste your $$
Not as advertised and a person I played with described it as such, “I would call it a cow pasture but the cows might get upset” and I concur!!
Bacon Park, Savannah
Really enjoyed playing this course. Well laid out and wide open for the most part. Only issue I had were some slow moving folks playing 3grouos in front who were holding up Everyone!!
Will definitely be back
