Called the night before, quoted a $35 rate, same as Golf Now but with the flexibility of just showing up without a time commitment. Much to my surprise, when I arrived at the check-in counter I was told that it was $20 w/cart. They were having a September special. Even at $35 this course would have been a good value anywhere. Even more so in island resort area.
The course is primarily flat. The fairways are lined with Spanish Moss covered mature Live Oaks. The trees added much to the appeal. The landing areas were wide. A number of fairways are dog-legged. Water is present but typically requires a bad shot to be a factor.
The course was in nice condition, but not impeccably manicured with the exception of the greens which were superior. They concentrated the most effort on the greens, and it showed.
The friendly and helpful staff only added to what was already a feel good course.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, I wouldn't recommend this course, Average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing, Ranks with the best in this price level
