Joe Lee, in 1975, mapped out this a new 18 hole challenge with trademark
strategically situated fairway bunkers, playing through some of Jekyll
Island's most pristine lakes and marshes. Lee named it Indian Mounds after
the large oyster shell middens deposited by aboriginal tribes hundreds of
years prior. Indian Mound like Jekyll's other courses is unobstrutive by
residential or commercial development.
