ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. (March 7, 2007) - Of all the marsh golf courses I\'ve played,
from Florida north through Myrtle Beach and the Carolinas, the Hampton Club may be
the best, in terms of the views.

That\'s because, at the Hampton Club, the views are from the marsh. Yes, you are
literally in the marsh surrounding St. Simons Island, out there with the ospreys,
bald eagles, woodpeckers and other marsh critters.

How did they do that? Well, they carved four holes on the islands off the mainland.
You get to them via a series of elevated bridges. You are the marsh and the marsh is
you.

How did they do that? Well, the course was built before all those pesky
environmentalists started making waves about such things. It\'s a unique experience
and one that will probably stay that way.

\"I\'m pretty sure they wouldn\'t allow a development like this now,\" Brunswick
resident Bud St. Pierre said. \"Back then, they\'d let it go.\"

Situated on the relatively isolated northern-most reaches of the barrier island, the
Hampton Club pulses with the kind of raw beauty usually found on these islands of
the southeastern coast, with ancient oaks framing the fairways. It\'s simply one
terrific, camera-ready view after another.

\"The first seven or eight years, it was really something,\" General Manager Rick
Mattox said. \"The development started back in the \'90s. Now, it\'s like we\'re part of
the island.\"
