A new favorite in the area

The course was in great shape. There was a juniors tournament before my round that presented some challenges for the staff but they were very accommodating and very nice. This was my first time playing here but I will be back next time I’m in this area.

Great golf club

Not fond of the courses prerogative to add players to fill out to foursome.

Great track kinda far from anything though

Great course. Good greens big fairways. Lots of tee options and great bunkers. For the fees they charge they should have water on the course, a beverage cart, and towels in the carts for guests. It’s pricey for sure but is a fun track. Go see it for yourself

Great track, wish it was closer to me

Big fairways, well kept, fast greens, bunkers are in great shape, and pace of play is pretty good overall. I try to get there at least 1 time per Month but it's a bit of a haul to get there. Wish it were closer to JAX. They need water on the course and for the amount they charge towels in the carts would not be an unreasonable ask IMO. Being a low digit single handicap I like the place and get to hit nearly every club in the bag which is a real treat.

Challenge With Afib

The cart GPS is set far too restrictive for a HDCP player. King and Prince does it properly. Otherwise great track and drainsunlike its sister course Heritage.

Excellent

From the first staff member helping w clubs to the friendly hello at check in and then the practice facility and the course this is a great value to play when in south GA.
A member told me it was a little slow for a Friday but we played in 4 hours with a 2 some and took the extra time to enjoy the views around the course.
Greens were great and good speed , bunkers were perfectly dressed and played consistent , fairways were wide and super good for Feb. The layout was very challenging yet easy to navigate for first time around . All around a super good every day place to play , I was pleasantly surprised and would go back when in the area .

Greens and fairways are very well kept. Pace of play was kind of slow the day we played, but normally it’s not.

We come to St. SimonsvIsland each Feb. And always get in 4 to 5 rounds here. Prices up a bit but quality is good. Always need HDCP cart due to Afib. Walk still tough to many tee boxes. Enjoy.
