About this course

Deer Creek is one of six courses at The Landings Club, a large residential community on Skidaway Island just south of Savannah. Designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 1989, the course occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of Georgia's coastal lowcountry, with routing that winds through mature hardwoods, pines, and natural wetlands. The layout takes advantage of the property's tidal marshes and creek systems, which come into play on several holes and provide both strategic challenge and scenic backdrop. Fazio's design at Deer Creek emphasizes strategic shot-making over length, with fairways that reward positioning and greens protected by his signature bunkering style. The course incorporates the natural topography and vegetation to create distinct playing corridors, and water hazards—both tidal creeks and constructed features—factor into club selection and course management. The routing offers variety in hole length and direction, with several risk-reward opportunities where aggressive play can yield scoring chances. The Landings Club operates as a private equity club serving the residential community on Skidaway Island. With multiple courses on property, the club provides extensive golf amenities alongside other recreational facilities. Deer Creek remains a popular choice among members for its combination of playability and Fazio's design character, fitting into the broader portfolio of courses that define golf at The Landings.

Getting there

The journey to The Landings Club begins at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, a convenient twenty-minute drive north along the coastal corridor. The route traces the edge of the Wilmington River before crossing onto Skidaway Island, where the landscape shifts from mainland sprawl to a quieter, moss-draped enclave of tidal marshes and live oak canopies. As you pass through the guarded entrance, the sense of arrival is immediate - a self-contained world of manicured fairways and waterfront serenity, insulated from the historic bustle of downtown Savannah yet close enough to feel its Lowcountry soul.
