Country Club of Hilton Head

The Country Club of Hilton Head, a storied enclave nestled along Skull Creek, offers a Lowcountry golf experience steeped in tradition and understated elegance. The course, originally crafted by Rees Jones, epitomizes a more modern style characterized by generous fairways framed by tall Carolina pines and strategically placed bunkers that reward thoughtful play. Errant shots are often swallowed by the thick vegetation, so precision off the tee is useful, and those who favor a fade will find that the course is strategically cut to favor that shape. While not a major tournament venue, the Country Club of Hilton Head has served as a cherished gathering spot for a discerning membership drawn to its relaxed atmosphere and commitment to the game. The club fosters a camaraderie, with its various golf and social programs. Members take pride in the club's history and its commitment to providing a first-class experience without the pretense of some of its more high-profile neighbors. The club is known among its members for the annual Skull Creek Shootout, a member-guest tournament that has become a highlight of the golfing calendar. The Shootout is not only a celebration of golf but also of the club's rich social fabric, complete with oyster roasts and Lowcountry boils that embody the spirit of Hilton Head. It’s a place where the focus remains on pure enjoyment of the game and the enduring bonds it creates.
