Fantastic!

Came down to SSI for Spring Break and wanted to play a nice course, The King and Prince did not disappoint! Beautiful layout, greens rolled true and fast, Staff was excellent, they allowed my daughter to ride along as well. Would highly recommend for an amazing round and the back 9 was gorgeous playing through the marshes!

Lovely Course

We were a twosome behind 2 walking foursomes, so things really bogged down when there were long distances through the neighborhoods between holes. Didn't mind waiting, but maybe carts should be required. Only other problem was the gnat swarms on several holes - very annoying. The holes out over the marshes were scenic.

Wet but Fun

Have had a good bit of rain recently and several holes were soggy, but overall course was in good condition and enjoyable to play. Back nine more interesting than front with several holes on the marsh and water. Would definitely recommend when on the island, especially if you can get a hot deal.

This is the semi-private course to play on St Simons Island

The course is a wonderful golfing experience! Challenging for all levels of golfers that is always in pristine condition. Nestled along the tidal marshes with 4 holes on the back 9 located on an island in the center of the marsh with scenic views to die for! The staff is very friendly, great food at the restaurant over looking the 9th hole lake, & the practice facility has a nice driving range, chipping, & putting greens. You will not be disappointed with this course!!!

Course knowledge is essential!

First time there I paired myself with a twosome one of which was a member. Without his course knowledge this round would have been “more” disastrous. This course is a scenic treasure worth the price. Only two courses avail public play on St. Simon’s Isle, King & Prince and Sea Palms. I went with higher priced spread & was pleased. Don’t be such a cheapskate - play K&P.

Always A classic

With Afib I like their liberal computer cart restrictions. Some courses are most challenging. The holesc22 to 15 are classics and worth the round by themselves.

Love this course hated that we ran into girls practicing

We had a 320 tee time , and were having a great time, until we ran into 4 girls and maybe a parent on a practice round. Didn’t finish cause of the girl and the practice. 9 and beyond had these girls on them. Wish the course had warned us, I would’ve picked another day.
