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
There are other courses that are better in the area; greens need work
This course was ok. It's not the most challenging course, but it is still no pushover. My biggest complaint is the condition of the greens. Some of the greens were missing patches of grass which made putting harder because you had no idea how the ball would react. What would normally be a good putt could end up way off because of the inconsistent greens. Not my favorite course. There are many other courses in the Savannah area I choose ahead of this one.

27 holes to play
Bacon Park offers three different 9-hole choices to play your round of 18. The course has a descent range of challenges without making any hole too difficult. There are plenty of turns and a few hazards to keep you thinking, and a few wide open areas to help rescue that un-planned fade, hook or slice.
The clubhouse offers a nice little vaiety of food, snacks and beverages with lots of room to take a break at the turn, or hang out and tell tall tales after your round.
