Championship Golf Courses
Each course showcases the natural beauty of Skidaway Island as well as the distinctive mark of its designer.

The legendary King of Golf, Arnold Palmer, designed the first and second courses at The Landings, Marshwood (with Frank Duane) and Magnolia (with Ed Seay). Marshwood is marked by strong par-3s; Magnolia by narrow fairways and parallel water; and both courses by doglegs left and right.

Hills designed Palmetto, the longest of the courses, where deep traps and high embankments guard contoured greens. Oakridge, Hills' second Landings course, is made for the shotmaker with small elevated greens guarded by grassy hollows and sand bunkers which require expert approaches.

Six private courses provide continual challenge.

Byrd's Plantation course, with five fairways ringing the southern end of Skidaway Island, offers dramatic vistas of the golden salt marsh, Adams Creek and Ossabaw Sound.

Tom Fazio, voted "best present-day architect" by his peers, put the finishing touch on the golf course package with his design of The Landings' sixth course, Deer Creek, which was redesigned and updated by Fazio in 2009. Sculpted mounds, grass bunkers, huge sand bunkers, easily identifiable Fazio hallmarks, combine with two-tiered fairways and elevated tees to create a course both spectacular to see and play.

Waterfront view of the course.

Instructional programs include individual lessons that feature the latest in high-tech video equipment and teaching techniques, one- and three-day golf schools and workshops.
