The Lodge at Sea Island Golf Club

Write a review | Avg. member rating: 5.0/5

Fodor's Review:

Simply put, this small resort overlooking the sea is one of the top golf and spa destinations in the country. It has the feel of an English-country manor, with exposed ceiling beams, walls covered with tapestries, hardwood floors softened by oriental rugs, and your own private butler, on call 24 hours a day. Dashingly decorated rooms and suites have water or golf-course views. The lodge serves as the clubhouse for the Sea Island Golf Club (though the name is misleading—all of the facilities are on St. Simons Island). Seaside, the first of three courses built here, was inspired by St. Andrews in Scotland and has breathtaking panoramas of coastal Georgia. Pros: fantastic golfing; elegant interiors. Cons: only guests can visit the restaurants or bars.

Having some friends who are members of Sea Island and we live around the corner from it, (3 ways to play: be a member, be a guest at the Hotel or play with a member as a guest) they themselves are in awe at the Lodge. It's an amazing place if you can afford it. If you do stay at the lodge, there are tabby ruins that are a must to see. It's off limits to the public ever since they gated the entrance. It's not a top destination in North America, it's a top destination in the world.
