Great Course
Great course! Rained in the morning and was still decent. Fun challenging holes and deer on most of them!
If Only The Back Nine Rivaled the Front
The layout of the entire course was outstanding with generous landing areas and fair sized greens. Unlike the front nine which was in near perfect conditions despite the rain shower prior to our round, the back nine was a tad unkempt. Noticeably more weeds, worn and unmowed greens on the back made it difficult to make putts.
Back To Jekyll
Exactly what you want in a course away from home. Good conditions, facilities and overall value for money. I played at 2pm and finished in 3 hours, I saw very few other players and never had to wait. I will be back.
Indian mound at Jekyll island
Biggest complaint is the layout. Almost every hole is the same typical thing you’d expect. Not a lot of uniqueness to this course. Lots of straight away par 4’s. There’s one unique par 4 that introduces a short lay up or long water carry. But other than that the holes are very straight forward. Well worth the hot deal though. Only had to pay $35 and there was no one in front or me. Was able to play however I wanted.
this course needs to have the just off fairway mowed
just off fairway grass 8 inch high to 24 inch high
hire someone to clean limbs and branches off ground
the first golf course I ever seen that did not mow around
the base of the trees grass was 24 inch high
Great layout!
Course has a great layout. There were a few spots on the greens that need some tlc but still in good condition. Would recommend!
Super Nice feel
This course had an appealing layout. Greens were in great shape. Pins were placed in challenging spots which made putting all the more fun. Wasn’t packed at all. Abundant wildlife. I enjoyed the wildlife as much as the course, if not more.
Will definitely play this course again!
Many Opportunities!
The staff, course layout, & surroundings were Amazing! But the course conditions for a property maintained by the state was not up to par. This could be an amazing golf destination, but it needs closer attention to the grounds!
Great value course
Course in good condition with great layout!! Great value all the way around with beautiful location! Can't wait to play again!
It was ok greens had not filled in from aeration did not roll well. Fairways had several dead spots. Good layout and plenty of wildlife glad I only paid 35 would have been overpriced to have paid more.
Great for the money
I was greeted by friendly staff at the carts and in the pro shop. The greens had been aerated so putting was a bit unpredictable. The layout of the course was fairly wide open. Make sure to bring plenty of water since there are only places to fill up water on 6 and 13. I would play here again because of the cost.
The staff at the pro shop was very rude due to the fact that we had booked our tee time with Golf Now. He was rude enough for me to send an immediate email to the contact us to the course!
This course could be premium but needs a lot of TLC - needs mowing and matured!
Good for the money
Played one the other courses on this complex last year and enjoyed it. This course got good reviews and seemed to have more history behind it. We liked the layout and with the GolfNow discount it was a good choice for our group. Generous fairways, fair distance from the white tees, greens in good shape.
