The Golf Course
Kinderlou Forest features a Davis Love III designed golf course that includes elements of traditional golf design. The course is 7781 yards from the tips and is the ultimate golf experience for every level golfer.
Davis Love III: “ We are tremendously excited about the golf course at Kinderlou Forest. The Langdale Company provided us with a beautiful piece of ground on which to work and, equally important, the freedom to create what we believe will be a truly outstanding golf experience. The design of the golf course takes advantage of the variety of the land’s existing natural features and combines many traditional design elements and playing strategies. It should be a good test of golf for the skilled player, yet offer interest and enjoyment for the recreational golfer. The golf course at Kinderlou Forest has the potential to set a new standard for golf in South Georgia.”
