Hampton Island, Ga. - A Davis Love III-designed golf course will be built on the 4,000-acre Hampton Island nestled along the Georgia coast 35 miles south of Savannah. The island is an exclusive, low-density, ecologically sensitive community that offers luxurious amenities and pristine natural beauty.
“We plan to create a golf experience that fits seamlessly within the natural environment, one that reflects not only the history and traditions of the game of golf, but the history of the area itself,” said Love, a PGA Tour pro and golf course designer.
The 18-hole course will weave through the island’s historic rice fields and equestrian plantations.
“We are equally committed to protecting our rich coastal history and to preserving the coastal sanctuary that is Hampton Island, while creating a unique golf experience that even the most sophisticated golfer can appreciate,” said Wade Shealy, managing partner of Hampton Island.
