Southbridge at Southbridge Golf Club

Southbridge Golf Club sits in Savannah, Georgia, designed by Rees Jones and opened in the late 1990s as part of a residential community development. Jones, known for his U.S. Open course setups and strategic design philosophy, routed the course through Lowcountry terrain characteristic of the coastal Georgia region. The layout incorporates natural wetlands, mature hardwoods draped with Spanish moss, and tidal marshes that define the visual and strategic character of the property.

The course reflects Jones's emphasis on strategic options and risk-reward decision-making, with generous landing areas balanced by well-placed hazards that penalize poor execution. Water features appear throughout the routing, typical of Lowcountry golf, requiring players to manage both carry distances and approach angles. The flat to gently rolling topography allows for walkable golf while the native vegetation and marsh edges frame holes and create natural boundaries.

Southbridge functions as a private club serving its residential membership, offering a traditional country club environment with dining and social amenities. The course provides a solid test of golf within the Savannah area's competitive private club landscape, where Jones's design work complements the region's architectural heritage that includes classic Donald Ross and modern championship layouts. The setting delivers the aesthetic experience golfers expect from coastal Georgia golf—moss-laden oaks, tidal influences, and the interplay between manicured turf and preserved natural areas.
