Spectacular course layout
Brazell's Creek is a real gem. It's true the front and back may as well be on different planets. I preferred the front; although hole 17 on the back is quite memorable. The course is in a state park and the local "gubmint" lackey running the register had very poor customer service skills. Most putting greens are infested with weed growth and turf disease; but they are otherwise trimmed. Despite those minor negatives; I'd highly recommend this stunning layout. It's a great golf experience.
Two Totally Different Nines
I was pleasantly surprised by this golf course. The "old" front nine winds through trees and creeks with some tight driving holes. Shot placement is premium if you want to score on this nine. The back nine is quite a trip from the clubhouse winding through the woods to a wide open "new" nine. There isn't a single tree on this nine, and is designed like a true links course. With this wide open nine, the wind came more into play. The overall condition was not great for winter, but certainly playable. Would like to give this course a try once again.

We had great weather and course was not over crowded. Greens were in good shape, but had many ball marks. Plan to go back and play again!
Great Links Course
Great price and course! Would recommend!
Hidden secret
Course was in great shape. Greens were fast, true and smooth. Always love playing this course. Will definitely be back.
The tale of two nines
Two courses in one. Traditional 9 on the front and links course on the back. The Sunday morning staff is always excellent. Can’t say enough good things about those young ladies. I play here often and always enjoy my round. Sometimes there can be a problem with young kids not having the correct etiquette. But they are young and keeping the game and course going through the future.
2 in one
The front is a nice layout in the pines. The back is a wide open!
Beautiful course
Fromt nine is in a wooded area and the back nine is in a big open field. Loved it.
Course is decent for time of year but greens do need some attention. Would like a slightly later cart return time but understandable due to daylight savings and staff shortage. Would be nice to see the drink machines return to the back 9.
Taking the guys back
Our group of 7 played 27 today in perfect weather...front, back & front.
The greens are in great shape, although we did average 3 to 4 extra mark repairs per green.
They need a Marshal...lots of unfilled divots in the fairway.
Ran out of sand on the front and no sand jugs at the turn.
The front side is a classic rolling terrain pine tree lined 9 holes.
Pay attention to your tee shot yardages on #5 & #7...too far is trouble.
Lots of dog legs that go one way and the fairways slope the other direction.
The back side is something I want to see in the late spring...South Georgia Links Golf.
Fairways and rough are dormant along with the adjacent hay fields... hard to pick your line when everything is tan in color.
Spent the day aiming at the 150 yd. striped pole
Greens hold approach shots well. Lots of up hill approaches ... add a club.
Looking forward to a return trip.
Great course but slow
This is a great course but a slow one
This doesn’t reflect on the stuff as much as the players
Because of the amount people who take their whole groups with them it becomes annoying with the wait because for some reason a lot of players here do not just say hey you can play through they will watch a single player wait for a group of 8 tee off
Maybe the course Marshall should assist or make designated times for groups larger than 4
Two different courses
Front 9 is what you would expect of a Georgia course. Lots of trees, tricky layout where you really need to position your shots. No water. Back 9 is like Scotland. Wood open, but with tall grass. You better stay in the fairway. You can see every hole and player on the back 9.
