Temporary greens everywhere

There was no mention that all the greens were temporary, and that's the original greens are in disrepair, i booked this tea time, thinking it was a normal of course. Tee boxes and fairways are in good shape.

Beautiful Golf Course/ Greens in bad Condition

11 temporary greens and 7 remaining in ok condition. This golf course is beautiful and appealing to the eye. Tees, fairways and bunkers are well manicured. Unfortunately the greens at this time are in poor condition. Although the temporary greens are in fantastic condition. Best temporary greens I’ve ever seen. Look forward to play when the greens have recovered.

Once great course lost

The greens are horrible and no grass. There's no management of tee times or pace of play. Allowance of multiple fivesome and eightsomes. The carts are not cleaned.

Greens

I've played many rounds and this course and enjoyed each, until my last round on Feb. 1. Overall, the course was in good shape, but the greens were the worst I have ever seen here. Dead spots everywhere and putts would not or could not role true. The ball hopped all the way to the cup and in an instant could turn left or right due to the green condition. I truly love playing here, but won't return until the greens have some much needed work.

Dead Greens

Tea boxes are OK, fairways are decent, but the greens are awful. They have spray them with something and killed every green on the course. I would not play this course again until next summer when they have had time to recover.

Underrepair

Every green, on the course is under repair, and they do not advertise or tell you that. I would not recommend coming here for a few months

Little Ocmulgee / Dukes Lodge

Wallace Adams/Little Oculmgee Never disappoints. I’ve been playing the course for years and have never found it to have any issues with exception to normal green maintenance. Grass is green throughout the course. Staff is extremely nice and actually gave me a rain check after my hand was not healed from an injury. I didn’t realize it until I went to the range and could not get my grip comfortable. So nice of them to do that. Our Class Reunion1985 Golf Trip is played here every year in October. So encourage everyone to use the golf packages because the lodging is great also. Many homes as well as reg hotel rooms to rent. Overall just a great place to play golf in South Ga.

Embarrassing course

The course is atrocious. The greens are sanded again, dead spots on greens, as well as holes, patches of dirt, and bumpy on the greens. Tee boxes not mowed, with weeds growing. A dead tree fell onto the course and still laying there. Fairways have patches of dirt and dead grass on every hole. This course use to be excellent. They are charging people $55 a round. It’s not worth $10 a round. Also they patched several greens and it’s uneven and not level. Don’t waste your money go somewhere else. Eastman Ga. is now much better course to play.

Nice layout Terrible greens

I have played this course before and it has reputation of being a good public course. I enjoy the layout of the course but the greens were in Terrible shape. It was not worth the money it cost to play the course and I will not be back anytime soon. Disappointing!

Friendly Animals

The course was great! Very well kept fariways and greens. These Bermuda greens in South Georgia are a little slower than what I am accustomed to. Pace of play was awesome.

I started right after a scramble and got around the course in less than 3 hours.

The Deer are very friendly.
