Jekyll Island Golf Club - Indian Mound Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Jekyll Island Golf Club is Georgia's largest public golf facility, offering three 18-hole courses and a nine-hole course. Two of the 18-hole courses, Pine Lakes and Indian Mound, have similar characteristics since they sit side by side. Both are younger than the Oleander, which is considered the toughest of the three and served as host to the Georgia Open for four years. The Indian Mound Course is the shortest of the three at just under 6,500 yards from the back tees but that is not to say you won't run into a fair amount of challenges. The layout features lengthy par 5s that you wouldn't expect given the yardage, and the par 4s offer scoring opportunities for those who take advantage of the short shots into the green. The Indian Mound Course's main challenges are the undulating greens and abundance of sand.

Course has been in better shape.
Haven't played here in a few years but make sure to give it some time to get back in good shape. The other courses here have been closed till last November and they weren't allowing carts on pine lake until a couple of weeks ago, so everyone has bombarded Indian Mound. It shows through the whole course fairway, greens, and even the rough. This course has been put on the back burner for a little bit, and they assure me it will get the TLC it needs in the next few months. If you can get a good price and are in the area, still go play it, but Pine Lake looks amazing right now and if you are ok with paying a little more money play that one instead.
Expected better
Not a bad course. We just expected better. Personnel were very helpful and courteous. Restaurant was more like bar food island style. Greens had some bald spots. Pace of play slow (for us). Fairways normal for a sand based course. Not a bad layout. Locals very friendly and welcoming to the course. We never got a chance to play other courses so we cannot compare others in the area.
Never Played But was Charged
This course appeared under my reservations while we were playing Sanctuary. I never booked it and my cc was charged.
