“The course itself is always in fantastic shape. You can really tell they take pride in the conditioning — lush fairways, pure greens, and those Lowcountry sand dunes and native grasses perfectly blended throughout the layout.”

“Classic Nicklaus course. I am not a fan of only having one way into a green (in the air). I also think it’s probably not that playable for individuals (like my wife) who aren’t hitting it high. I bet the new C&C at Palmetto Bluff is going to blow May River out of the water.”

“Heron Point by Pete Dye is another gem tucked inside the Sea Pines Resort and shares the same clubhouse, facilities, and overall vibe as Atlantic Dunes — which already makes it a great experience from the start.”

“Hilton Head National is one of those courses I always look forward to playing. It’s got that perfect mix of fun and challenge without ever feeling over the top.”

“An excellent resort type golfing experience. Great customer service, a welcoming vibe, and people going out of their way for you to have fun. The course itself was immaturely maintained except where it wasn’t (there were a couple holes with heavy maintenance).”

“Oyster Reef is one of those courses that falls into the “fine, but not great” category for me. It’s classic Hilton Head golf — tree-lined fairways, a mix of marsh views, and that Lowcountry feel — but it just doesn’t quite stand out the way some of the others in the area do.”
