Jekyll Island

Rate a 4.5 if available. Course has just reopened & in really good shape, tees to greens, even sand traps. Rough is penalizing. Greens in great shape. After fairways fill in & matures it will become really nice. Played on cloudy day, pace of play excellent. Prefer a lower green fee but being a resort course, probably not happening. Highly recommend especially if you can a good deal

Course was decent. Hard to fairly rate considering Helene had passed through the area a week or so prior to playing.

Course was pretty nice and fun other than the greens. They were in pretty bad shape. Lots of weeds and bare patches. I played 2 days in a row and 1 day the greens were super slow, the next they were actually playable.

Always enjoy coming to Jekyll Island to play golf. I don’t forget you have to pay $10 to get on the island. Of course it was in good shape for this time of year of play was good.

Overall, good course conditions were pretty good for the fall after a hurricane we had played in May and it was better but that’s to be expected of play was good. Not many people out at all always would recommend it. Just remember you have to pay $10 to get on the island though.

25 minute backup on the 1st tee. Starter letting people show up late (should make them skip first hole).

No marshalls on the course to ensure pace of play...almost 3 hour front 9!

Worst greens I've seen in decades. Weeds growing and bare spots everywhere.

Fairways are more sand than grass.

Was told by a member they aren't maintaining this course because it's about to shut down (back 9 turning into condos).

Save your money, don't play here if you enjoy golf.

A lot of interruptions with pace of play on the golf cart screen.

We complied with letting faster players pass thru. The Golf Cart would randomly stop even while on the Cart Path. Called into having the GPS system shutdown and the staff person was not very friendly, we were told that it could not be shutdown. When mentioned in discussion with her associate, she was told how to turn off GPS which made the game play easier.

Maybe will try it again, we will have to see.

I have been playing golf for over 50 years. I have probably played over 10,000 rounds in my life. The greens were in the worst shape I have ever seen a golf course. There were weeds on the greens, bare spots and actual ditches. The sand traps had grass growing in them. The fairways or a collection of weeds, dead grass, and bare spots. The course should be closed as it is unplayable.

Oleander, where good drives, approach shots, and putts, go to die. Weeds everywhere, tee boxes, rough, fairways and greens. Terrible shape; we were told by the starter we were in for a treat…..it was a trick!

The greens were poorly maintained. The fairways were very thick. You would think that with the amount of business they get especially from tourists, and the amount of money they charge, they would take better care of the course.

Nice weather and playing in the mist of the Georgia Pines.

Although the greens and fairways were a little rough we still enjoy playing there.

Love playing amongst the Georgia Pines.

The second cut was pretty long and hard to find balls.

Possibly understandable with the weather that just blew through.

Some of the greens were burnt or in rough shape.

Over all, still love playing there.

Played this course about a week after hurricane Helene came through; course was open but in bad shape with uncut grass; unkept greens; and debris littering the grounds. No problem, except they still charge a premium price to play . C’mon…

Greens have serious weeds growing which as you know late in day can cause your ball to change directions. We had cart path only on numerous holes. I never saw a reason for this except a couple of serious mud spots. It had not rained in days. Flagging or stakes could have kept carts away.

Doesn’t look like the course is being kept in same shape I played previously. Bunkers looked like no one was taking daily.

Jekyll has got so much rain that the course would or should be closed. However apparently they are closing soon for renovations - so does not matter.

We frequently had to drive thru 4 inches of water on cart paths for 40 yards at times. Still greens were dry and almost hard ( slight elevation helps). Pine Lakes has been renovated and looks great. It opens shortly. Oleander layout was decent and tree lined. 10 green was so small.. Just conditions were terrible.

Amusingly my wife's green ball had tiny green frog near it on 18th fairway.. Are you my mother?

No rangers anywhere.. You can imagine with cart path only and social golfers it was a slow day.

The course or Golf Now ought to let you know when the course is cart path only!!!
