Jekyll Island

Not a bad course. We just expected better. Personnel were very helpful and courteous. Restaurant was more like bar food island style. Greens had some bald spots. Pace of play slow (for us). Fairways normal for a sand based course. Not a bad layout. Locals very friendly and welcoming to the course. We never got a chance to play other courses so we cannot compare others in the area.

It is still cart path only on all holes. The grass has not grown in. Tees were bad and fairways only slightly better. Greens about the only part that was ok -rolled pretty good. After the renovation last year it should be in much better condition. All this does not justify the $95 dollars to play it. Should be discounted until these issues are fixed.

The course is set up for different abilities. Keep it in play and score well.

Greens are hard and fast. Hit high approach shots and you should hold the green, if not you should think about landing short and running up.

Looking forward to playing again.

Pace of play was an obstacle. Single player in cart should be waived thru a foursome walking and looking for balls in the woods.

We’ve played this course several times and the pace of play has been slow, but not as slow as this time. With a 3:40 tee time, we didn’t tee off until 2:50. There were two foursomes ahead of us that included obvious non-golfers. The one immediately in front of us spent much more than the regulation 3 minutes looking for balls on the second hole, so caused a backup right from the beginning. The course needs an on course ranger. Since our “home” course is impeccably maintained (and notably challenging) with rangers on busy days, I’m basing my comparison on that experience. However, at the end of the 18th hole (which we didn’t play as we ran out of time before the 7 pm closing), was a sign that noted “Pace of play, 4.5 hours.” The course and greens were in fairly good condition with fewer damage from the resident armadillos than last year.

Newly renovated! Great condition !

Beautiful day ! I think they are trying to preserve fairways! It was cart path only !

Had I known they still are not letting carts out. I would not have booked and paid for a cart and chosen to walk instead.

Everything was great really enjoyed the course… my only two things was the pace of play was slow and wish they offered more or better stuff from the cart lady beside that it was awesome

One of my favorite seaside courses just got better with an extensive re-do over the past two years. I like it even more now!

This course appeared under my reservations while we were playing Sanctuary. I never booked it and my cc was charged.

Loved the course. Would definitely play on again and again
