Good play
Of course was a little wet, but all in all, it was in good shape. Nice layout I'll be back
Condition Dependent
Oleander is a good course, but I wouldn’t go again unless it’s been at least a week since the last rain. The course is below sea level so you’ll find water in the fairways, traps and mainly on the cart path. Slows pace of play way down and takes away from the quality of play.
With normal conditions all the courses on Jekyll are a good value for the casual player, would recommend.
Better of the two courses we played
Fairways in much better shape than Pine Lakes which we played the day before. Not to difficult but challenging enough with traps and water in the right places.
Awesome course
Forgiving well maintained fairways and greens. Much better condition than sister course Pine Lakes. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Carts were in good shape and zippy. Never concerned about players in front or behind us. Very casual fun round.
Beautiful Golf Experience
Upon arrival the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We had one of the first tee times of the day and we saw the group in-front/ behind us once during the round. Pace of play was fantastic. The course was in fantastic shape. Best I have played in 2023. Minimal of any divots in the tee boxes and clean and clear greens. Very well groomed golf course. $59 was a steal for this course! Golf carts with GPS are very nice and clean. Perfect day on the course!
Greens
Overall the course is in ovoid condition. But the greens are infiltrated with a weed or some other grass that needs to be quickly addressed or they may lose some greens altogether.

The greens are being infiltrated with some wee or some grass that needs to be addressed by the grounds crew.
Greens
The overall course conditions were good but some greens have been infiltrated with some sort of weed or grass that needs to be irradiated.
Good resort course
Pace of play was abysmal on the front, but my partner and I were able to play through 2 groups at the turn and buzz through the back. Ranger would have been helpful. Greens were ok, consistent and relatively smooth. Nobody fixes ball marks. Plenty of sand in the bunkers, and I was paired with a great guy; made a new friend.
New Jersey Golfer
Overall course was in good condition. Tee boxes and fairways were I great shape. Greens has a few bare spots and some diseased area. I would recommend play
Course was in good shape but the greens not as much
What a gem
What a gem. This was a bucket list course for me. It was worth every penny. The only reason I gave a few 4’s was a few spots on the greens. Maybe 2 or 3. The fairways were immaculate. Beautiful soft turf. Perfect tee boxes. Amazing views. Probably my favorite round I have ever played. It was a Saturday and there was 2 other people out. Amazing. Can’t wait to come back.
