Live Oak/Magnolia at Bacon Park Golf Course

I wouldn’t know how the course is because there was some “confusion” between front counter staff and management. We were told we could walk the course but not rent cart or even pull carts, due to rain. Understandable. We decided we would just hit some range balls and went to ask and the oh so nice manager (extreme sarcasm) told us that the entire golf course is now closed! He was extremely rude and offered no explanation. Soon after we saw some younger gentlemen head out to play as they walked the course. Must just be all about who you know in order to play here.

From the first tee to the eighteenth hole the course was in descent condition. Tees and fairways were in good condition. The greens were in need of serious repair. Having played this course in my younger days and thru my adult life, I'd have to say my play on Sunday was a little disappointing. For the money I paid to play , and the course condition, I feel it was to much.

Someone needs to immediately "flip the switch" turning off the GPS on every single golf cart!

I was on the dirt cart path and was restricted CONSTANTLY throughout the day. Ruined my customer experience...

Good course for the price. Most greens were well kept , those that weren’t were being worked on with sod recently layed down. Fairways were mostly straight and open, this made it very easy to find the greens.

CONS, living in Savannah this time of year, water should be offered or placed throughout the course. Most Tee boxes were next to the greens which was not always to ideal when putting and having drivers going off 20-30 feet in front of you.

the course is improving. they cut out parts of some greens and put it sod so they are putting in good effort to make the course better. they arent cutting the grass too short so the fairways have been greatly improved ! only thing is you can get cheaper prices at every other course around. my guess is theyre trying to pay for those new gps equipped golf carts. ironic thing is the carts seem to be what most people are complaining about. play here enough and ull get used to them. overall im mostly pleased with the recent results !

On my way to Maine we camped here. I played 18. These carts with their GPS cut offs are a bit disturbing especially with no paths or out of bounds marked. I got stuck a few times slowing rate of play. Speaking of which I was delayed by a couple of walkers that didn't seem to care who was behind them or how long they were playing. It's not the masters! Others are playing too!

All in all the course was a bit challenging, especially the greens, but fun. I'll be back as I see they're improving. ⛳

No bev cart, slow pace of play, half of the greens have massive craters of sand in them and it’s way too expensive for what you get.

Many of greens had damaged areas that interfered with putts. Cart paths were non continuous with no indication where to proceed that resulted in a cart lock-up. Frustrating to unlock cart and know where to go. Coarse cut so short that many shots hitting off dirt.

Not up to par. Tee boxes were ok. Fairways lacked grass. Greens were damaged by disease with large areas filled in with sand. Like a bunker in the middle of maybe 30% of the greens. We had a good time but it had nothing to do with the course. I was told that somebody bought the course and put a lot of money into it. Not sure where it went but it wasn't in improving the turf. I won't go back.

Played with a college reunion group. Course layout is very good. Will be a great course when the repairs are complete.

It was a nice day and great course with good friends!!!

If you want to play an old school classic designed by Ross, this is a good one. The city needs to put more money into the course, but it was a pleasure to play and the greens were the fastest I ever played. The live oaks with the Spanish Moss were great and this place will definitely take you back in time. Staff was excellent and friendly. Played as a single early morning for 53 bucks on a Tuesday and was done in 3 hours and back to the family vacation.
