The golf course itself is one that promotes golf which is centered around shot making, strategy, and fun. The wildly contoured greens, elaborate bunkering, and immense, tightly mown fairways combine to create a golfing experience unlike any other in the Southeastern United States.

-Anthony Pioppi, author of "To The Nines" labelled the course "...the best nine hole course constructed in the United States since World War II." "Sweetens Cove…harkens back to one of the most influential golf courses ever built in the United States [Augusta National]….Collins and his partner, [Tad] King, have embraced the original MacKenzie-Jones tenets with gusto. Writing about Augusta then, MacKenzie could have been describing Sweetens today." Anthony Pioppi
"To The Nines"


-Adam Lawrence, Editor of "Golf Course Architecture Magazine" remarked "Sweetens Cove is the best nine hole golf course I have ever played and a truly outstanding piece of golf design and construction"

“Sweetens Cove is one of the most audacious designs we’ve seen. [King-Collins] built one of the most diverse & entertaining set of green complexes found anywhere. This kind of fun, inventive, quick golf is more commonplace in the UK, which is why the game is so much healthier there than in America. If you leave [Sweetens Cove] smiling, don’t panic: golf is supposed to be fun.”
