![]() ![]() Course History: “Savannah's Golf Centerpiece” - Golf Magazine Overlooking the Savannah River and Historic District The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa is a unique combination of a magnificent golf course, classic Westin service and a resort atmosphere. It is just a water taxi ride away from the southern charm of Savannah. The resort’s golf course - The Club at Savannah Harbor - lies nestled between the banks of the Savannah and Back Rivers among the abundant wildlife of the picturesque Georgia Low Country. The Club is home for The PGA TOUR’s Champions Tour Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf Tournament and offers an 18-hole championship course designed by renowned Architect Robert Cupp in conjunction with the legendary “Slammin’ Sam” Snead. Recently named one of the "Top 60 Golf Resorts in the United States" by Conde Nast Traveler Magazine, and awarded a “Four Star Best Places to Play” by Golf Digest, The Club at Savannah Harbor offers unparalleled views of historic downtown Savannah while it gently winds its way through tidal wetlands. You can be assured a round at The Club at Savannah Harbor is certain to provide an enjoyable and challenging golfing experience for players of all abilities. In addition to our Championship golf course we are proud to offer The Greenbrier Spa at Savannah Harbor. Modeled after its namesake spa at White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia’s world-renowned resort, The Greenbrier Spa offers over 35 individual treatments, a day at the Greenbrier Spa at Savannah Harbor is sure to relax and rejuvenate both body and soul. Descriptions of Several of the Most Challenging Holes: #6- Talmadge Peaks: Par-447Yards – Black / 408 Yards - Gold No margin for error on this long par four. The tee ball needs enough length to peek around the corner of this dogleg right. However, to hit it too far means certain trouble as a deep bunker guards the far corner of the bend. Balls that do find the fairway face a daunting shot to a small elevated green that is guarded by bunkers and marsh. The green sits under the shadow of the peaks of the Talmadge Bridge - your gateway to the closing waters of your voyage. #7- Big Duke: Par-5, 660 Yards – Black / 599 Yards - Gold Be wary the wreckage ahead. There will be many a wanderer who makes safe passage to this spot only to be lost amid this monster par five. Don't be fooled - while this hole is long, it is the accurate golfer who will find the path of least resistance. Favor the right side of the fairway off the tee, avoiding the bunkers on the left. If you do not think that you can clear the bunkers that pinch the fairway on your second shot, it is wise to lay up. Any ball that finds these bunkers is headed for a bogey or worse. Once you are past these hurdles, the hole softens. Favor the right side of the green on your approach and you should be able to finish the hole with relative ease. Take par and turn for home. #12- Tomo Chi Chi: Par-4, 468 Yards – Black / 434 Yards - Gold Much like the seven-foot tall Savannah Indian Chief for which it was named, this hole's most noticeable feature is its size. Not only a strong test of the driver, but the second shot must also be well thought out as you approach this 17,000 square foot green. Putting from the wrong spot has left many a passenger scratching heads and longing for smoother waters. #13- The Waving Girl: Par-5, 595 Yards – Black / 548 Yards - Gold Your first goal on this par five should be avoiding the fairway bunkers from the tee. If you enter one of these, reaching this green in regulation becomes very difficult. Recognize that your second shot will be damaged left or right, so play cautiously. Guarding this small, bi-level green are a series of cavernous bunkers. Only the most lofted of approach shots will avoid these and hold the green. If you are going to miss your approach shot, long a right offers relief, while long and left ends your safe passage with despair. #18- Wormsloe: Par-5, 457 Yards – Black / 419 Yards - Gold The first and most successful plantation in Savannah provides the namesake for this hole. A long stretch of fairway stands between you and the halfway point of your journey. The challenge of this hole is the approach shot to the green, as it is crowned and well protected from shots on the right by a severe bunker. There is plenty of room long and left, but the chip shot back up to the green makes par a challenging score.
