Henderson Golf Course

Savannah, Georgia, USACoastal Georgia

Henderson Golf Course in Savannah offers a challenging 18-hole public layout framed by tight fairways, mature trees, and water hazards. This course rewards precision and thoughtful strategy, making it a rewarding destination for golfers seeking an engaging test on the Georgia coast.

Course Overview

Located in Savannah, Georgia, Henderson Golf Course is a public 18-hole layout that offers an engaging challenge for golfers seeking a test beyond standard fairway play. Spread across gently rolling terrain, the course features a tight tree-lined design that demands accuracy and thoughtful strategy off the tee. Several holes wind through clusters of pines and magnolias, creating a setting that blends Southern charm with competitive golf.

The course is defined by its narrow fairways, which encourage players to carefully select their clubs rather than relying on distance alone. Water hazards come into play on key holes, adding an extra layer of risk-reward decision-making. The greens, though varied in size and contour, generally reward precise approach shots and good touch with the putter. While some conditions of fairways and tee boxes have room for improvement, the bunkers remain well-maintained and contribute to the layout's character by protecting the greens and penalizing errant shots.

Henderson Golf Course caters to a broad range of golfers, from high handicappers looking to improve accuracy to more experienced players craving a tactical round. The design encourages sparing use of drivers in favor of accurate irons and hybrids. Those who enjoy navigating challenging angles and tighter fairways will find the course particularly satisfying.

Amenities include a modest practice area and a friendly, approachable clubhouse where players can relax before or after their rounds. Throughout the year, moderate course fees offer considerable value for those visiting the Savannah area. Walking is permitted and recommended for those who want to fully experience the course’s natural setting and intricacies, though players should wear appropriate footwear due to uneven terrain and occasional moisture.

Henderson Golf Course stands out for its demanding layout tied with scenic Southern foliage and water features that come alive with local wildlife. Players should prepare for a round that tests shot-making precision and mid-game strategy more than sheer power, making it an ideal stop for those who appreciate tactical golf amid a traditionally warm Georgia landscape.

Course Highlights

This was our second stop during our weekend golf trip to Savannah. Fun and challenging course for high handicappers. Very tight fairways on several holes, so used our drivers sparingly. Greens had been aerated a few weeks prior, but were better than some other courses we played over the weekend. Staff were all very friendly. For the cost, pretty solid value. We will likely play here again when we return to Savannah.

Played this course during our trip to Savannah. The course is well maintained with plenty of trees and water features. The price was very reasonable for the quality of the course! I felt like I got a great value for my money, especially considering the beautiful views! Some of the holes were very challenging with a very narrow fairway.There were a lot of small alligators chilling in the water when we visited. I cannot help but taking a lot of pictures of them.

Very good for relaxing while playing golf, very calm and pleasant, the only point of attention is to improve the carts

If this course was in good shape, it would be pleasant and challenging. Alas, the fairways are not very good, neither are the tee boxes, nor the greens. The only part of the course that are above average are the bunkers!

Don’t go there if you are bad about misplacing your clubs on the green. I forgot a wedge and it magically disappeared. Only one threesome followed me and they could not speak English. Denied seeing golf club. Not found by greenskeepers either. I immediately went back to the various holes to try and find but it was not there. If the clientele that play there are not honest enough to turn things in when found, not sure I want to play there.
