The Savannahs Golf Course
About
Challenge the Savannahs. On the windward side of Merritt island lies one of the most unique golf courses on Florida's Space Coast. The 6,450 yard Gordon G. Lewis design winds through majestic hardwood forests, natural wetlands, and scenic lakes to reveal protected, undulated greens. Nine holes are framed by a natural savannah conservation area, bordered by hammocks with a high canopy of trees and coastal flatwoods. Water, in the form of natural wetlands and manmade lakes, comes into play on thirteen holes. The course boasts several unforgettable holes, such as the 525-yard, par 5 Signature 7th, regarded as one of the most challenging holes in Central Florida. This beautifully tight, typically southern course features six sets of tees, making play ideal for beginners and pros. The back tees are demanding even for the best of the best, while our new “Family Tees” are playable by anyone who wants to tee up. Prepare for your round by warming up on our practice facilities that include: unique aqua range, chipping and bunker area, and full-sized practice putting green. Look around during your visit, and you will notice nature's splendor on display. Our preserve features many water birds, birds of prey, reptiles, and low country mammals that make the savannahs their home. The fairways additionally offer a great view of the nearby Cape Canaveral rocket launches. Our southern plantation styled Clubhouse is a great place to start and end your day at The Savannahs. Inside you will find a golf shop, plus a bar and grill with great food and hospitality to match. Or, wander outside to the veranda overlooking the aqua range and golf course to catch the sunset.

Area Go To
Always play when visiting the area. Three rounds last week. Great wildlife, Four-hour rounds. Good food and beverage choices. Fast greens.
Nice course
The G)S on the golfs was great. The staff was helpful. . The place of play was kind of slow. We liked the aqua range.
Fun Course
Lots of water wind picked up as we played but course was in decent shape for this time of year. Will continue to improve in growing season . Will go back and play it again
Visiting cocoa beach
Course was packed and EXTREMELY SLOW. Pro shop and starter friendly. No one to speed anyone up. Bunch of rain I was told and course was wet but not as bad as it was the week before I was told. Don’t go if you do not have 5 1/2 hours planned.
A mess
Sloppy, muddy and very poor conditions! Cart paths only made it a very slow round. I would stay away.
Fun Day & Great Staff!
Wonderful day at the Savannahs!
The staff and food were excellent. The course was Carts Only and quite boggy in many places - which is an uncontrollable.
Suggest booking a round there - but maybe checking to see if things have dried out a bit first so you're not surprised.
Sloppy
The course is nice but the last 2 times I played it was cart path only because of the wet conditions. This really slowed play down and have to carry 2 or 3 clubs to each shot.
