The 1964, Dick Wilson-designed course challenges golfers with numerous dog legs, par 4's, 5's and situated only 300 yards from the ocean, trade winds will often affect your play. Jekyll Island, Georgia’s largest public golf resort, offers 63 holes of golf on three 18-hole courses - Oleander, Pine Lakes, Indian Mound, and the historic Great Dunes 9-hole course.
