The Lodge at Sea Island, Georgia

From your balcony at The Lodge, you’ll overlook the outstretched sea, savor the smell of s’mores around a crackling bonfire, and delight in milk and cookies served right before bed. Enjoy 24-hour butler service and even a luxurious rose-petal bath, drawn just to your liking. And access to all that Sea Island has to offer, all within arm’s reach of championship golf courses and our many other activities. Against the sun setting over the water, a bagpiper puts the courses to sleep each night. A cherished signal of the end of another Sea Island day and the beginning of a fun night ahead.

Golf :

At Sea Island, Davis Love III learned how to play golf from his father, practiced with his brother, and introduced the game to his son. His story could easily be the story of any Sea Island guest. Because where else can you get championship golf courses, top instructors, new teeing areas and practice greens and – in early 2019 – a brand new, 17,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art Golf Performance Center?  All added to everything else there is to discover at Sea Island.  From juniors just starting out to PGA champions—and everyone in between—there’s no better place for a golfer to learn and grow. Technologies and facilities that reach into the future, in a setting that honors traditions of the past.

The Sea Island Resort offers three ( 3 ) championship golf courses :

Seaside Course :

Sea Island’s Seaside course is a Tom Fazio re-design of the 1929 classic by famous golf course architects Harry S. Colt and Charles Alison. Golf great Bobby Jones described it as among the best nine holes he ever played. By tying the original Seaside with the old Marshside course, Fazio, according to Davis Love III, transformed two nines from “18 holes that didn’t match into 18 matchless holes.”

Seaside is an ocean-side links course that combines its beautiful natural setting with a golf course that is both challenging and fun. The beautifully manicured fairways and greens are bordered by sweeping dunes mixed with native grasses, wildflowers, and bunkers. And the wind creates a different golf experience daily. Sea Island’s most dramatic layout, Seaside is routinely ranked among the top 100 courses in the United States. Along with the Plantation Course, it is the home of the PGA TOUR’s RSM Classic, a FedEx cup event hosted by Sea Island touring professional Davis Love III.

Plantation Course :

Created by the great British designer Walter Travis in 1928, Plantation was Sea Island’s first nine-hole course.  Redesigned in 1998 by Rees Jones, Plantation serves along with Seaside as home to the RSM Classic, a PGA TOUR event hosted by Davis Love III.  And now, Davis and his brother, Mark, are again redesigning the course, reintroducing some of its historical elements, drawing on its traditional profile, and bringing into play some of the ideas they have had since they were youngsters, when they grew up playing the course with their father.

Retreat Course :

Sea Island Touring Professional Davis Love III and his brother Mark redesigned Retreat in 2001. Carefully blending players’ preferences (including their own) from the earlier design, as well as devoting a lot of close personal attention, the brothers created an original design that while dramatic is very playable and interesting. The Love brothers added 300 yards of length to give Retreat an open feeling with a lower profile. The course is defined by pine trees and bunkers but allows players to swing freely for the target. Davis Love III changed the way the course plays so that everyone might enjoy the game as much as he does.

Golf Performance Center :

We have a pretty solid formula here at the Sea Island Golf Performance Center. We offer a comprehensive approach to golf under the trusted expertise of world-renowned instructors who are leaders in the field. Knowledge that covers each of our five core competencies—long game, short game, golf fitness, club fitting, and mental game—within a state-of-the-art facility in beautiful coastal Georgia. With a deep history rooted in the passion of PGA pro Davis Love, Jr., and later his son, Davis Love III, students of all levels are drawn to the ideal golf setting that Sea Island offers. Just ask the number of touring pros who choose to live, train, or play here.
