Good day to knock it around

Played as a twosome the last deal time ahead of course closure for fertilizing. A quiet Tuesday early September lots of clouds and occasional light showers. Had a good time played poorly but survived. Nearly had course to ourselves and pace of play was fantastic. Conditions were ok but could be so much better. Nothing too memorable.

Oine Lakes

Course was in excellent condition. With all the rain we have experienced, the course drains very well Fairways are lush and the greens run true. All the bunkers had quality sand and were consistent. With high prices on St. Simons Pine lakes is a fantastic value..Also has a great driving range.

Best Cart Guys In The State of Georgia!

Man... from the time we dropped our bags until we left, we were treated like royalty!

The course was firm and lush, greens were smooth glass. Played with the most amazing wildlife around us all day long, deer and birds! My 12 year old loved it!

One of the BEST courses I've ever played

We were in town for a work event and staying at the Cloister. We played The Retreat the day before. While the amenities were amazing, I found this course to be way more fun and it had gorgeous views. Everyone was so friendly and the 19th hole here was one of the best I've been to yet. Amazing atmosphere and great food. I can't wait to visit again to play the other two courses You MUST play this course!!

Donkey golfer

Greens were in very good shape ! Fairways were ok but they had piles off dead grass left on them after they were mowed! The bunkers smooth but very hard and very little sand! Had not been raked for a month!

I expected this. And I’ll tell you, I’m….

It was a very nice day and at a very nice course, and with very nice hosts. When our group played in a little over 3 hours, and with very good conditions, a big time wa had by all. We were all pleased with everyone and everything.

I highly recommend it!

Pleasant Surprise!

I was hesitant because of the other reviews. I am so glad we played! The course was in great shape (if you hit the ball where you are supposed to hit). YES there is a lot of sand... It is a DUNES course. Greens were great. Wind from ocean added a challenge that you would expect from a beach course. It was $135, but compared to other island courses in the area, that is a deal. The only thing I would encourage from the club house, would be a marshal to come by and speed players up from hitting extra balls and hacking away from the tips. I would play over and over again!

Very nice, worth playing once

Played Pine Lakes. Course was in good shape. Greens were a little slow but reasonable. Nice layout. Was paired up with a single and as a twosome we played in four hours on a holiday Friday, pretty unheard of, so I wouldn’t expect that all the time.

Would play the course again only Pine Lakes, but bring your bug spray as the bugs were atrocious. I had two types of bug spray on and it didn’t work so I don’t know what to recommend.
