Description

Valdosta's championship length layout by Davis Love III stretches over 7,700 yards from the tips, making it among Georgia's longest courses. Routed through rolling pine forest and natural wetlands, it has hosted multiple Web.com/Korn Ferry Tour events. Broad fairways lead to large undulating greens, but the scale and bunkering demand controlled distance. Practice facilities are extensive, including a large range, short game complex and putting greens.

Kinderlou Forest lived up to the buzz I had heard about it. Played on 11-18. What a sublime course. First of all, the greens were so good, running 11 1/2 and super smooth. Place was immaculate. Holes 2 thru 7 were very compelling, moving around a huge ravine. Holes 8,9, and 10 were pretty mundane, but then from 11 on, the holes were spectacular. Friendly staff inside. A great value too, one of the best in the south. A must play if driving on I-75 thru Valdosta, as it’s only 10 mins off interstate.

Beautiful and well maintained public course. We stopped on our way down to Florida. The starter and all employees were so friendly and welcoming. To top off our great experience, we left a rangefinder on the cart. Not only did they have it in the golf shop for us, they generously mailed it back to our home so we didn’t have to make the long drive to pick it up.

6.5 hour round. Caught up to a group playing with 17 carts. At least one employee had to have driven by them and didn't say anything about it. Absolutely inconsiderate and disrespectful to everyone behind. We teed off at 10:30 am and didn't finish until 5pm. After the round the employee said "well the max is supposed to be 5 per group" so I was thinking maybe I'll come back.... But then I posted the picture of 17 carts on a single hole up on Reddit's golf forum (the place I first learned about Kinderlou), and within 5 minutes I got a reply from someone else saying they got stuck behind the same people a week or so ago. The pro shop apparently doesn't have the cajones to actually lay down rules that allow everyone to enjoy themselves. Golf isn't fun when you have to walk around in circles to keep from getting stiff between every shot.

Absolutely love Kinderlou Forest! Have enjoyed their stay and play package the past couple of years. If the pin locations changed on a daily basis, this would be a 5-star rating…not as much fun playing the same hole locations each day. Will certainly be back though! ⛳️
