Southbridge Savannah Golf Club

Southbridge has a new greens keeper and it shows. Greens are improved and should be good in spring.

Ranger was very helpful.

It’s been over a year since we played Southbridge

due to the conditions. Yesterday was amazing. They’ve fixed so much of what was wrong.

The greens are probably at 85%, and they rolled fast, which we loved. Good grass in all fairways.

Planning to go back next week.

Very friendly staff!

Pace of play was good.

Some greens were a little rough but overall, a good challenge.

Worth a look!!!

Greens are better but makes everything else looks worse. Grass around the traps up to your knees and growing inside the bunkers. More cartpaths either buckling or imploding Hard to justifyeven paying$35 on golfnow.

I've played this course several time over the summer, and generally...it's a good layout and great value @ the "Hot Rates" (when available). One word of caution: playing here after a substantial rain is not nearly as enjoyable as it is normally. That was the condition I played it under my last visit.

Unfortunately, this course has never drained well. So, in too many areas, hitting off the turf is akin to trying to hit your ball off "pancake batter"...just extremely soft & muddy. Couple that with "cart path only" and you'll question whether playing here is worth the time & money.

So, if it's been dry, definitely give it a go...but if it's rained recently, proceed with caution.

I last played this course about a year ago and the greens were in sad shape. The group I play with enjoys this course layout, which is challenging yet at the same time you can score well if you hit the shots. So we decided to play it and see how the greens were. They have made cast improvements to the greens. They still have more progress to make but you can see they are working on them. The greens were running slow but that's because the are letting them grow in. The rest of the course was in excellent shape, with the exception of a few tee boxes. The grounds crew is doing an excellent job. We will definitely be back

Pleasantly surprised by the conditions. While no means perfect / pristine...it was certainly wasn't bad, and definitely worth the price.

Some greens were better than others, but overall better than I expected. Very slow, though, which is understandable given the heat, and trying get some bare spots to grow in. The fairways were generally good, with some juicy rough.

Only minor complaints: the cart paths paths are broken up & rough and the ball washers had no water in them.

I had not played in many years and a friend of mine played about a few years ago and said the greens were in terrible condition. A few of the greens still have some issues but overall, they were pretty good. The practice green is probably the worst of them. I love the layout and the fairways are in great shape. For what I paid, it was a very good value. The staff was friendly, and the pace of play was excellent.

Hard work has made this golf course great again, love the layout and the grounds people have worked very hard on the course and it shows. Looking into Nevis member

The course has a lot of potential. It is a good layout that could provide adequate challenges to golfers of all levels. Unfortunately, the course needs some significant attention. The worst part was that the majority of the greens were in very poor condition. The 4th hole has the potential to be a great par 3 with a large and severely undulating multi-tiered green. Sadly the green was so bad - multiple bare spots, weeds, and fungus - that it was basically unplayable. The 12th was very similar - a potentially wonderful par 3 ruined by a bad green. It is apparent that the course doesn’t drain very well as there was way too much standing water and way too many wet areas. I had several approaches plug so badly on the 1st and 2nd cut around the green that I had to be on top of the ball to find it and then pry it out of the earth. The maintenance crew appears to be unaware (or not care) as there are way too many tire ruts in the rough and fairways. Most of the greens were not in good shape…and even those that were mostly intact were very slow. I read a recent review that said the greens were “firm and fast”; they were not. They were fuzzy (as if they hadn’t been mowed or rolled in quite some time) and very slow - probably rolling at a 6 (or worse).

On the positive side of things, the pro shop staff was very friendly and courteous as was the bartender. The pace of play was great (but it was a Wednesday afternoon and 98 degrees) and the course design/layout is very good. The course has so much potential. I’d love to experience it after an extensive amount of TLC from the greenskeeper and maintenance team…
