About
Sapelo Hammock Golf Club features five sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all skill levels. The 18-hole, 6,887-yard, par 72 course is the main attraction, boasting Champion Bermuda greens, 4 - 19 Bermuda fairways and roughs, and coastal Georgia marsh grass hazards. The thought-provoking layout will test the veteran players while the picturesque scenery will help newer golfers relax as they enjoy learning the classic game. With over two miles of marsh front play, the views are spectacular. The clubhouse is also available for receptions, business functions, and the marsh view side is a great spot for location wedding. Our Eagles Nest apartment above the clubhouse is a two bedroom, two bath rental with full kitchen, den and deck overlooking the beautiful coastal marsh. We offer stay and play packages and have this apartment and three other condos available for stays of 16-20 guests.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A very easy drive about an hour south of Bluffton, SC. Very much worth the trip. The views during play are amazing. The fairways and greens are very plush for the cost of play. The pace of play was very good for a 9:28am TT on a Thursday. I look forward playing this course again very soon.

My son kids me about this being my home course, because I love playing golf here. It is a challenging layout for most any caliber golfer. Reasonably priced and a four round is a long one. The highlight however, is how pretty it is. Wrapped around the Coastal Marsh it’s views rival any on St Simons or Hilton Head Islands at 1/3 the price. The folks are super friendly and they are actually glad you came. The Course is in great shape,too. I love playing here. You might see deer, raccoons, foxes and gators!

Sapelo Hammock is a hidden gem of a golf course. It is beautifully situated on the Coastal Marsh. The course has several tee boxes and can accommodate all caliber of golfers. It is a beast from the back tees, hard from the blue tees and has the most challenging par 3s. The vistas are beautiful. The course was in good shape for January, greens putted true and were fairly fast but held high irons. Staff is friendly and cost is very reasonable. If you are close or even thinking of going near there, you must play golf here. I promise you will thank me for it.

Our foursome traveled up from St. Simons to give this course a try. First off, everyone there was friendly and appreciated us being there. The course was a fun layout and had plenty of challenges. We were fortunate to be there on a day when they serve food. The hamburgers were superb- the service was even better. Felt like I was at Mom's. This course is off the beaten path but worth the time and effort to try. We are making arrangements to return soon.

We had a great round there yesterday. The course is beautiful and the people were very friendly. It was also very nice to visit the Shellman Bluff area. The whole story surrounding the restoration of the course is wonderful and we will definitely return soon.

I have heard several great comments about Sapelo Hammock Golf Club so we decided to give it a go. From Savannah, it is 50 Minutes, with much of it on I-95. We got there at 7:00 am for an 8:00 am Tee Time and we were greeted by a friendly staff and were immediately checked in. We asked for a military rate and they had one, ($33.10) per person. The course was remarkable and well laid out. The greens were well maintained and the cart path is a very drivable dirt path. Watch for the alligators around some of the holes and water hazards. Had a great time, will definitely be back.

Many thanks, ebur104075, for your comments. We are quite lucky to have this beautiful spot for our course. No where else in GA will you find a course with so much marsh frontage play. We hope you will come or consider becoming an owner! We have just opened stock option purchases in 2018.

This is a gorgeous course off the beaten track. It well maintained, the staff is friendly and the course is fun to play. Because of its location it's not crowded. I highly recommend it, it's worth the drive.

I hesitate to write this review because I know it will only attract more people to one of the best kept secrets in our region. That would be very unfair to the hardworking team at Sapelo Hammock Golf Club though. They deserve a packed tee sheet based on their efforts. I played here Thrusday, October 24, 2019. Have played a few rounds beforeand always enjoyed myself but this one was most exceptional. The greeting over the phone when I called at 7am to see what they had available was from someone who was happy to be at work. We all know that feeling of calling a course first thing in the morning to try to get a tee time for that day. Many times you are left feeling like they are doing you a favor by allowing you to spend your money with them. At Sapelo Hammock they were happy that I called and even nicer when we arrived. The sweetest lady checked us in and made us feel as if we were the only people coming in that day. We thoroughly enjoyed the setting and the quality of the course. The greens were true and speedy. Areas that should be manicured were just that. Price was more than reasonable. It was the relaxation that you hope for on your day off and the test that the game should bring. To put this review in perspective, I am a member at a private club 35 miles away and really prefer the way I am valued there over my own club. Well done Sapelo Hammock. See you soon.

I recently had my second opportunity to play Sapelo Hammock. The round did everything to confirm my impressions during my first visit (which I reviewed, below, in April 2018). Sapelo Hammock is challenging, beautiful, pristine, haunting and just a blast to play! The entire staff is so welcoming and friendly. Plus, the story of how the course itself was rescued by local residents and is now debt-free and self-sustaining is a terrific one!
My only suggestion to Management: If you haven’t already, please try and get some course-ranking reviewers, say from Golf Digest, Golf Magazine or Golf Course Gurus, out for a loop around the course. I would be extremely curious to see their comments about Sapelo Hammock and how they feel it stacks up against other courses in Georgia and particularly against others in the Low Country. It would also be a great way to help get the word out about what is perhaps one of the most beautiful, but hidden, gems in the Southeast. Or, come to think of it, maybe not so we can keep the course our own little secret.
Either way, thank you for another fun day of golf. I’m looking forward to my next visit to Sapelo Hammock Golf Club. Keep up the great work!
