Quirky clubhouse facilities but fun challenge of golf!

Green fees are very reasonable at this no-frills golf club and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. Layout is really nice and from the tips it can be a real challenge. Great place to go if you’re not too fussy about having luxury amenities and you just want a good place to get a round of golf!

Don’t go on Saturday

I’m not sure what I expected, but played recently on the first nice Saturday. Course was PACKED with very slow pace. Spent 4 hours to do 13 holes. That being said, great course, very fun, challenging, and well maintained.

Course Needs Work

This probably used to be a pretty great course. Unfortunately, the course has fallen into disrepair a bit. We had to wait about 20 mins for a cart and the course pace-of-play was very slow. They could use more staff and rangers. Also, bring your own snacks as there is no kitchen or cart attendant.

Slowest round ever

Front 9 took 3 hours. Slowest round I have ever played. Greens were extremely slow, despite course guide stating they run 11-12 during the winter. Staff allowed our twosome to start on the back 9 to ease pace of play however it still took over 5 hours despite only having one twosome in front of us on the back 9.

Revitalized Course. Improved and well managed Now as of 2016-2018

The Course will eat you up on your first play. On your 2nd through 5th play you will be struggling to break 90. (playing from the tips) So imagine if I average mid 80s to high 70s at a course rated between 70 to 72, Southland has a 73.0 rating. so do the math. If you can break 80 consistenly on this course. You should be proud and consider yourself Promoted from Recreational to Amateur golfer. ( Not too sure which takes precedence): Amateurs participate in Tournaments, So you are ready for the PROAM..

Windy, Cold, Fun

We played in the winter in GA. So you never know what you are going to get. It was windy and cold, but still a lot of fun. The greens were hard to read, but I think mostly because it is winter and cold. Course is still well-kept and challenging as always. I have been playing here since 2002 and still come back.

Great friendly Course

The course was in great conditions since we had a week of rain. The greens were still fast. The only improvement that could be made is draining in the bunkers. I landed in a few during the round and all had standing water.

The Course was in great shape

This course offers a challenge to golfers at all levels. Hitting the ball long is not an advantage on a lot of the holes. You have to be accurate and place the ball in position that will allow you to attack the pin. Greens are excellent, however, don't get above the hole. Almost a guaranteed three putt.

Good course to play

The course is playing good. The greens are decently fast. The bunkers were not playable for the most part. But otherwise, Do go play this course. You'll go through your bag off the tee, have some up and down hill approach shots as well. Hole 8 is an near impossible par 4...never seen anything like it. Still go play this course.
