The course caters to all levels, especially seniors. With exception of several greens with bare spots (which should be marked 'under repair', and holes in some fringe areas, the course is very well maintained. The practice areas (driving, chipping and putting) are outstanding. The food bar is open only on certain days and often closed by 3. Good bang for the buck..

Great course for the money.

You can’t beat the cost for a round. This course is beautiful and very well laid out. Several holes require strategic thinking, making this course challenging.
I highly recommend playing Sapelo Hammock!
