The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes

The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes sits in Hardeeville, South Carolina, positioned along the inland corridor between Interstate 95 and the more developed coastal resort areas of Hilton Head Island. Designed by Tommy Fazio, the course reflects the regional Lowcountry landscape with its relatively flat terrain, native vegetation, and integration of water features that are characteristic of South Carolina's coastal plain geography. The routing takes advantage of the natural wetlands and pine forests common to this part of the state. The course serves a residential community development and offers a semi-private club experience typical of many modern Carolina golf communities. The layout incorporates strategic water hazards and bunker complexes that require thoughtful course management, particularly on approach shots where green complexes are often defended by both sand and water. The property's natural setting provides a quieter, more secluded atmosphere compared to the busier resort courses closer to the coast. As a Fazio design, the course emphasizes playability across different skill levels while maintaining strategic interest through varied hole lengths and hazard placement. The conditioning and maintenance standards reflect the expectations of a residential club environment, and the facility includes practice areas and clubhouse amenities that support both member and guest play. The location offers convenient access from the interstate while maintaining the wooded, natural character of inland Lowcountry golf.
