Great Value

Part of state park system. Very good use of terrain, creeks & trees. Lots of false front green complexes. Could use better yardage markers. Overall a very good layout.

Beautiful course, well maintained

Went up from Florida for a 3 day get away with 3 other guys. Had a wonderful time and would highly recommend to anyone to come and play the course and stay if you can. The course is challenging, but fair. The conditions were very good. Greens were very consistant and in great shape. Only problem was the person putting.

Great place to play.

Course was in great condition. Bermuda greens rolled great. Fairways were super. Layout is challenging from tips and moderate from blues. The place is not busy during the weekdays. We had it virtually to ourselves on a Monday July 8, 2013. Loved the place.

Very challenging, great view in southern Georgia.

This course was very nice, there are two greens that need attention along with several bunkers. However for the price i will play everyday.

1 st time here

We enjoyed this course very much for a lot of reasons but largely for the great greens. The difficulty was not real high from the white tees but we noticed that the blue tees often made it MUCH harder. All in all it is a fun course to play and well kept.

Good course layout

Course has a good layout, and condition was OK for the time of year. However, there were no bunker rakes at all. Surrounding the greens were knotty weeds, making it difficult, at times, to putt from the fringes.

This has always been a nice course, I hope they keep it maintained!

Noticed that it is no longer run by the State. It has gone done hill a little in my opinion but still a good value on hot deals! or golf now rates. If they keep the course conditions maintain it is a nice challenging course and a longer course for both Men and Ladies.
