Course was in pretty good shape. Some greens needed work but overall was good play but weather over the last week and today necessitated cart-path only which never is a good thing.

Winter conditions leave much to be desired

Course was very wet, cart path only, but nobody in the pro shop bothered to mention it. Fairways are dormant, it is winter but there was very little grass making any shot very difficult. Greens were ok.

Pace of play was very slow and we couldn’t figure out why. We were behind a twosome who were waiting for shots to the green that there was no way they could make, like waiting for the second shot on a par 5 thinking that they might hit the foursome that was still 300 yards away. No way were they going to make the green but they must have thought it was the Masters. Anyhow, lots of mud, very poor playing speed and not much to offer here in the winter. We’re local so will likely come back but not till the grass is growing again.

Still trying

Let me start by saying I like this course. I like the layout, I like the carts, I like the staff and I know the course was recently taken over by a group of concerned residents. But their problems still remain.

While some traps are pristine (raked with new sand) the others (majority) are weedy, full of water or just plain unkept. There is algae on some tees because they don't get enough sun. Some trees need to be taken down.

It was wet when I played but most of the local courses haven't had very many dry days since a big rain. I'll keep playing this course but will wait until spring/summer gets here and see how much it has improved.

most improved golf course I have ever played

Since the arrival 4 weeks ago of the new grounds man “Sonny” this course is being transformed from a neglected course that had a good outlay ,but was very scruffy into a well kept course that improves every week

I have never seen such a quick turn around on a golf course

This new ground keeper is transforming this course. If he stays here he will have this course rivalling most of the Hilton head courses. Well done sonny

The last time I played here he starter made us wait 20 minutes even though our tee time was 12 minutes away and no one was on the Tee Box this may be why the Savannah Morning News had a critique of the golf course today asking why no one played Southbridge anymore

Good value

Have played here several times. Course is always in pretty good shape however this time, the fairways are getting pretty thin on grass cover. Makes a clean fairway shot kind of difficult. Greens are great. Staff very friendly. We took a 3pm tee time and there were few other players out. Pace was great, nobody pushing us. Only suggestion is that the course could use some watering, especially the fairways.

Not the same course

So sad to see how this course over the past 5 years has deteriorated. Used to be one of my favorite course for the money. Now the maintenance is non existent.

Terrible golf course conditions and staff.

Tee boxes are horrible, some are patches of dirt.

Fairways are no different than the ruff.

The ruff is like playing out of the woods.

Sand traps are death traps.

The greens are weedy and have patches of dirt.

Rough

The fairways are in good condition. The rough needed to be cut being it was growing wild. Once in the back nine the rough was being cut but the grass wasn’t being picked up and almost lost a ball in the cut grass.

Horrible Course Condition

This is a well laid out course. Unfortunately in the last couple of years they've let it go. There's more weeds than grass. The tee boxes are dirt boxes. Some had no grass at all, just a few weeds. While I got a hot deal for only $12, it was only worth that.

Nice layout and neighborhood- rough shape

Not in terrible shape, but not how it used to be. Course is up for sale. Only a few bunkers were in service. All ponds were overgrown. Not what you’d expect for this course.
