WOW WOW WOW

Do not miss a chance to play this Donald Ross design. We played after a storm so limbs were down and bunkers need raking , but design and routing were sublime. I have played very few Ross designs but this will make you search them out. Plays muuch longer than yardage. A delight.

Worth the trip

Very nice course with friendly staff. They come pick you up at the parking lot and have range balls included. The course has challenging greens that though they had a layer of sand still rolled very well. Worth playing.

great course at good price

First time using GolfNow. Nice course and good pace of play. Sand traps need soft white sand. They were in need of more sand. All things considered great course with beautiful back 9.

Great course.

Course is in great shape. The staff and facilities are top notch. Green fees are low in my opinion for the quality of the course so it is a great value.

Really nice course

Course had a lot of rain earlier in the day. But you wouldn't know it. It drains really well. Wet areas few and far between. Will definitely play again sometime when I am in the area.

This course is a challenge for any golfer whose handicap is above 8

Excellent challenge for any golfer whose handicap is above 8 or so. It's in good shape and the greens are particularly difficult.

Great deal with Golfnow

Played with my wife early with not a lot if folks around. Course was in good shape for the winter. Fairways were not over seeded but didn't need them. Greens rolled well but had some poa invasion.

It was very scenic with the trees and moss. Good value with Golfnow.

Nice layout but course needs work

Very tough course. Nice old course design but not much of a wow factor. It is at the end of their season and the greens were a little slow. Grass on fairway was very sparse. I probably wouldn't play this again until next summer. In fact for the money and if you have the time you are better off driving to Hilton Head. Pace of play was a little slow.

Great course conditions

I really love a well manicured course, this is what you get when you play The Wilmington Island Country Club. First things first get to the course early and hit the driving range it will definitely pay off once you tee it up. I must say the course is well marked and the greens are huge but make sure your approach shot at least hit the green because the green side bunkers are deep and the greens are fast. Beautiful course from start to finish will play there again without hesitation.

An old school gem.

If you like an old style golf course, you will love this Donald Ross design. No tricky or gimmicky holes, but no boring holes either; a challenge. Very good condition, and a great course to walk.

Visually appealing.

Fairways are tight, hard and bare to space.
Greens are hard without any hold or check.
Bunkers are inconsistent
They need a head greens-keeper..

Beautifully maintained.

Beautifully maintained country club course. Very few doglegs making it a "grip it and rip it" course. Just hit it up the middle and you won't find any trouble. Lots of sand traps around the greens to catch you on errant approach shots. Water in play on only 6 holes. Rough was cut almost as short as most other courses fairways making missing the fairway no big deal.

Classic design, Classy Staff, A treat to play

This is one of my new favorites! Had no idea what I was missing. The course is narrow enough to challenge yet wide enough to be fair. Greens have plenty of variation and none of the gimmicks you may see on newer courses.
We will definitely play here again!

nice fairways, tees and fast greens that will hold for a good shot

nice fairways, tees and fast greens that will hold for a good shot. need to be a good judge of yardage, markers are on sprinkler heads to the center, no 150 markers post that I remember, this is a good think for how a holes looks and a not so good when you can not find a sprinkler head. Anyway, looking forward to playing this "old school course" again.
