A Nice Track
This was the first time playing Indian Mound. The course was in good shape and it was nice to play a course that had no houses to compete with the beauty of the nature. The course is a traditional parkland design, all right there in front of you. The only negatives were that several groups started on number 10 as we made the turn, making the back nine slow. Then, after finishing, the kitchen had closed at four o'clock, leaving us hungry and disappointed. My wife had stopped after nine and enjoyed a nice grilled fish sandwich. So, when they're open, the food is good.
good golf good price
the only problem there was to be a usa kids golf tournament on the folowin weekend and there was fathers giving lesson to kids and it created waitng, thus killing the rythm of play
Great practice facility
This course was in excellent shape. I was paired with another single which turned out to be a great round of golf. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape. Some of the bunkers were sketchy due to recent rain, but other than that it was an excellent course to play.
One of the most picturesque courses played.
This was the second time I played Pine Lakes. Joined up with a couple so we were a threesome. The play seemed slow, we had small waits on every hole but still played it in 4:15.
What happened is that we had the time to really look around at each hole and enjoy the scenery. Hole after hole had just enough change to see something new. Just all around beautiful picturesque scenes
that made the day enjoyable just to be outside with the golf the icing on the cake..
Last of the three
Oleander was in the poorest condition of the three courses. But still worth playing. Pine Lakes is in the best condition with even the fairways being over seeded. Indian Mounds had the greens and aprons over seeded. Indian Mounds had the most water. All in all, any of the three are good courses to play. Gators and deer add to the enjoyment. Play can be slow at times because of so many high school and college tournaments. Played in March, bermuda grass hadn't started growing yet. Staff very nice.
Wet but OK
It had poured the day before and with cart-path only the course was still playable. I was the first one out but ran into two groups on the back 9.
course needs to be closed
This course is in terrible shape. The fairways are thin and it always is wet. Expect Carts On Path only any time you play. The greens were ok but not good. This course needs to be closed and worked on for about a year. It is too bad because the layout is very good. It just needs an incredible amount of work in drainage and fairway reseeding. They continue to push people on the course which is just making it worse. Again with the right amount of work this could be a very good course.
Cart Path Only
Cart Path only, even though the weather was in 70's for 2 days. Fairways and Greens in poor condition. If I had paid 45.00, plus island toll booth $6.00 to play without golfnow discount I would have been furious. Will not be going back.
Well Managed
We've played the courses at Jekyl Island a number of times and have been satisfied. Weather was perfect, courses were crowded, but we got around in about 4:15. Got paired with another 2some and we had and enjoyable round. The Pine Lakes course is a bit boring, but the course was in good shape, and we were there for the weather.
Good Course
Good course good condition for the amount of rain that fell prior to our round. Greens were excellent. Fair golf well trapped greens. Like to come back again.
Jekyll
It was raining and cold when we arrived and they graciously gave us a rain check which we used the next day.
Would play again
Couldn't believe the value of the Hot Deal at this place. The Island and the course were very nice. Played the main course, very nice.
Great deal
The course was in good shape, pace good, over all great experience.
Well worth the money
Went to the island to relax for the weekend and really enjoyed the course. Fairways and greens in very good condition. Staff very friendly. Cant wait till next time.
Like this course
Like playing this course. It was in good shape after the rainy days. Some challenges but a fair course..
indien mounds in the sun
Had a great time playing the course, for the mid-winter conditions, the course was in excellent shape, the greens were as close cut as a billiard table and the ball rolled right on the line I picked. will be back again soon, and the value after noon for 28.00 was extremely good.
18 enjoyables
Perfect weather and a fun course, cannot be beat for a good time. Partenered up with friendly folks.
Very good value
I have played this course three times to date. Each time staff was very friendly and helpful. This is a large well organized golf complex. Range balls are pretty beat up. Condition was pretty good considering this is winter and after a recent cold snap. Greens are in very good shape and pretty quick.
What a Deal !
Friendly staff, well maintained, beautiful course. Jekyll Island golf is terrific !
Disappointment on the "turn"
First of all, Oleander is a very nice track. It has large, well bunkered greens and quite a few narrow fairways. As has been the unfortunate condition for many years, a few of the fairways are littered with worm castings. They don't interfere much with play but do make walking over them a bit muddy. Not a deal breaker though.
The only disappointing aspect of our round here was the situation on the tenth tee. Even though we had a reserved time (through GolfNow of course) and played, as we should, the front nine first we came across several groups of players who were obviously given permission to start there. I do understand how these large groups are catered to considering the money they spend on the course and at the Grill. It was most evident that a "good time" was had at the bar by the raucous and loud shouts that were coming from the first and tenth tees. On the other hand, I do personally feel that those who have played the front nine in good faith would be given priority over others who wish to start on number 10. I personally felt it was disrespectful to us to even be faced with this situation.
The starter for this course was very apologetic and offered to get us out on one of the nines "across the road". We chose to do this, as we didn't wish to follow the boisterous, and very, very "fun loving groups...if you know what I mean" ahead on number 10. As a result, we did get to play without any wait whatsoever on one of the nines of Pine Lakes and enjoyed it very much. Too bad though, that we didn't get to play Oleander's final nine holes though. There are some really terrific golf holes there.
I do hope any of you who play on Oleander get to play all of the 18 holes someday. Well worth it for sure. Today was much more of an exception than a rule I think.
Hopefully, the big groups who were so favoured today, will be gone before you get to play at this really nice course.
