Knowledgeable greens crew

The greens crew has done a great job of keeping up with funky climate swings and greens disease management. Not easy in the south
Tee boxes and fairways are in great shape as well. And free range balls make the golf experience at Sapelo a real value round.

Golf course is a good value for cost, had a knowledgeable greens guy, and the oro shop/ restaurant had super nice folks, Cristina and Evis, (sp), doing a great job behind the counter.

On the average, all of the Jeykll courses are overpriced for the course conditions and maintenence levels they have at this time. As a former Greens Chair for a small private course with reasonable dues, our minimums were to have fantastic greens, practice and on course to run the same on the stimp meter, well manicured tee boxes, and firm approaches. I'm sure the maintenence crew is short staffed and not held to any standards that elevate the golfers experience on a well maintained course.

Gettin closer on good maintenance levels

The course had greened up and filled in on a lot of fairways, and most of the greens were ok, even though they had punched and sanded about a week before. The downside of these area courses is that they don't alert folks to maintenance events when u book. I had guessed they had punched and sanded by the price and number of times available . The pro is a workhorse ther, h e even was tending and doing cartduty..The downside to their carts is the age of them. Last time we played there, the cart ran out of battery, even though the Guage showed 3/4. And low and behold the single ahead if us ran out of power also. We'll go back because it works. Some greens work needs to be addressed

Low maintenance levels

Being a muni course close to a fair number of people gets this course a fair number of golfers judging the amount of folks out. The greens are suffering from either some disease repair or water stress. The super needs to get tee boxes and greens up to snuff to get a players worth even at $51 a round. Even the majority of the West and North course fairways had more weeds than contiguous grass to hit off of. Sand traps were 3 different types of sand and different depths⅕ of sand on top of hard soil. And I was in a lot of traps, and I'm a good sand player.

Great layout, needs some more maintenence upgrades

Playing this course for the first time requires an extra sleeve of balls . The water areas are quite large and it would take most players 3-4 rounds to get the nuances and slope of fairways and greens. The Pro there is a stand up gut and was very helpful and forthright to answer all my queries about the course and helped get us getting a great pace of play. The two downsides are there are no Marshall's there to keep pace of play going, and I believe most of their greens had suffered some disease damage I f stresses, and the tee boxes were not up to snuff. All in all, we'll go backfor the layout and a great price. They need to get the GPS updated with Google, it sends u to a oermantly closed gate.

Good value for cost

I've plated Sapelo around 10 times. The layout is challenging even from the old man tees 5k plus. They have had a disease issue with 80% of the greens, but they're working on the cure. 4 of the greens were disease free, but punching twice a year is needed, the greens are soft . They need to get the maintenance done earlier, mowers we're out all day. Overall a good golf experience.

Beauty Golf Day

Heritage has been a go to course for me because of previous rack rates were affordable compared to St. Simons Island courses where I live
But with course improvements and the post covid world, both of the owners courses took a leap forward. Heritage has got their greens at a 9.5, and with the cart path improvements. Tee box maintenence levels, the super has done a great job in bringing the course to another level. Golf Now makes it affordable. My Thanks to both entities.

Maintenance levels

As with most public courses in the area the maintenance levels are an issue. The tee boxes are small, which is fine, but the ground is hard as a rock and the tee markers are rarely in place after being mowed. Three or four of the greens had just had a sand application, which is good for the health of the green, but that should be part of the communication of course conditions when booking a tee time. It wouldn't stop my playing the course, but thats a communication issue that could be addressed. Great layout, and elevated tee boxes rock.

Great layout, needs an uptick in maintenance

My gal and i had a great time and payed a great price for the Oleander Course. The pace of play on this course is great, the layout is a little narrow for some. Sadly, the maintenance levels are the lowest of the 3 courses, tee boxes are not fed and sprayed as needed, and some of the greens have bad grasses growing in on them due to a lack of a constant spray schedule. But for the escalating price of golf courses in this area, the deal was good.

What a great round!

First time at this course and it did not disappoint.. Great value for the price, course was in great shape with healthy greens and low pressure in the afternoon. Club house staff were very friendly, and the restaraunt was an excellent addition to the days experience. We will go back.

Always a great course

K&P is a great layout and the greens were running at a 10 on the stemp, so putting was a test when a lit of the public courses off island run 7-8. Worth the price on golf now.
