Nice Course

The course is very well laid out with wide fairways for us somewhat errant direction. Greens suffered from a cold spell this past winter but are coming back well with great care. Due to sanding the greens are quite slow.

Lots of wildlife

The course was impeccably maintained, with pristine greens that offered a perfect speed and consistent roll.

During our round, our threesome was treated to a delightful encounter with the local wildlife. We spotted a graceful fox, a majestic alligator, and a charming turtle, adding an extra touch of nature's beauty to our golfing experience.

A word of caution, however, for those unfortunate shots that find themselves near or in the water hazards. It is strongly advised to avoid venturing too close, as there are resident alligators in the vicinity (as depicted in the photo). Remember, it's always better to accept the loss of a ball than to risk a perilous encounter reminiscent of Chubbs from the movie Happy Gilmore. Safety first!

Memorable Fun in the GA Backwoods

Overall, this was one of our favorite courses in south GA.

Tucked away in the marshy backwoods of coastal Georgia, this course provides exciting views paired with a fun, getable layout. Course demand is light but does offer some exhilarating shots for the longest hitters that choose to play from the tips. Wildlife is abundant and adds to the overall experience. The staff is very friendly. Clubhouse is small but lovely. What this course lacks in overall care, is made up many times over by just how fun each hole is from tee to hole.

If you can see past areas of disrepair (that are clearly being actively and well managed to not detract from overall experience), I highly recommend taking a detour from the normal courses along the Golden Isles and giving this fun track a go.

The course is a great layout, but some green issues. No Marshall or Starter, pace of play slow. no management of tee times

getting cart an adventure,

64 dollars way too much of a price with these issues

good time

Course was in good shape with only some greens needing fixing. Such a beautiful course and well worth the ride to get there from Savannah.

Get a friend and take the ride to the course, you won't regret it!

Another Great Day at Sapelo Hammock

As always we have a great time at Sapelo. They had sanded some spots on some of the greens but other than that it was perfect. Everyone had a great time.

Great course to play

Course is in good shape. Some but, very few bare spots on some greens.

Fairways are in good shape, as well as tee boxes. Nice practice range and NEW carts. Well done.

Friendliness Abounds!

Great staff! Always friendly and helpful. The front side greens were very slow and covered with sand in some areas for repairs. The back nine greens were much better.

Sapelo Hammock 5/10/2023

Have not played Sapelo in quite some time. Have a friend in town from England so I decided to take advantage of a super golf pass rate and we journeyed from Savannah’s historic district to Shellman’s Bluff. What an unbelievable day we had ! Christina in the grill and pro shop was super informative and SO gracious. My Manchester buddy was VERY impressed . He’s returning to the states and Savannah in October ….. Sapelo will be our first golf outing ! I’m not waiting till October , I’ll be back soon with my regular group.

Sapelo Hammock - Coastal Georgia Gem

I love this golf course. It has something for everyone. Not too long, but a real challenge from the tips.

The course had some damage to the greens due to a deep frost in February, but they are recovering nicely.

It’s a great course just a few miles from I- 95 north of Darien.

Greens

Course overall is good. However there were several greens that were in rough shape. Lots of sand patches. Club House was exceptional. Food and drinks , good. Overall enjoyed it. Condition of the greens was the only problem.

Play there periodically.

Great course. Greens are being worked on and they are sanded. Tee boxes need some work too. Overall this is a fun track. Hope the greens come back with all the work being done.
