Awesome course.

I found the course on google. It was awesome. Staff was super friendly. The greens were great. The whole course was. As good if not better than most of courses in Hilton Head or Savannah I’ve played. It’s 30 min south of Savannah. I plan on playing there more than once next trip. A member gave us directions to a cool seafood place run by a guy named Capt. Phillips. Prob best experience I had on a trip last week that included there and Florida.

True gem

We rode up from St Augustine to play for my birthday. I played this course a lot in the early 2000s when we would drive down to visit family. I have always loved this layout and wanted to share it with a friend who had never played it.

This is a tremendous layout and gorgeous property. The greens were smooth, but a touch slow. There were some spots of weeds, but not bad. In all, we had a fabulous day and wish it wasn't 2 hours away or I would play it more.
