Hilton Head National Golf Club
About
Set across 300 acres of lush Carolina Lowcountry, Hilton Head National Golf Club has earned its reputation as one of the region’s premier public courses.
A unique collaboration between golf legends Gary Player and Bobby Weed, the course offers two distinct nines that complement each other beautifully. Weed designed the front nine with larger, more dramatically contoured greens to contrast and balance Player’s strategically crafted back nine.
Among the most memorable holes is the challenging par-4 sixth — bordered along its entire right side by the course’s largest lake and protected by deep pot bunkers near the green. The back nine features several standout holes, including the long and demanding 16th, which ranks as the No. 1 handicap hole for women and No. 5 for men. And finishing strong, the par-4 eighteenth tests precision with a deep marsh running the length of the narrow fairway.
Together, these elements create a course that’s scenic, strategic, and rewarding for players of all skill levels.

Great course
For December the course is in great shape. So many challenging shots await. And not lined with condos. Course isn't long but requires good shotmaking to score well. Greens are great, sand traps need attention.
I got a hole in one at 13 here last February. After that round I asked in the pro shop if they had any trinkets or a little paper to complete to commemorate the feat. The answer was no, but I could buy a plaque. I've had the privilege of several aces in 50 years of golfing, all at different courses. Each course did something or had something, from a 1/2 sheet of paper with the course logo that the pro shop attendant completed, a call to the local paper, and/or a complimentary green fee. I just would be a nice touch for such a nice course.
Low Country Classic
The back 9 r ensconced in a lovely setting of lily filled lakes and connectsing streams with no homes to disturb the bucolic stroll in quintessential Low Country beauty..
The layout is challenging and diverse.
Once the clubhouse is completed it’s .
reputation will grow.
Beautiful setting,classic clubhouse,no homes,a scenic stroll in manicured nature.
Course always in great shape!
We usually try to play this course 2 or three times a week when we are in Hilton Head. Course is always in great shape, staff friendly and good rates for the facility on a whole.
Great Course
Great value. Course was in perfect condition, greens rolled great good speed. Would definitely play again.
Greens are always kept in great shape!
I play here every time i visit HHI. The greens are one of the best in HHI and the course is challenging from the blue tees. It is a tight layout and you need to hit your lines and fairways to score. The fairways and tee boxes were in good shape as well. My only negative is it gets alot of play and players need to fill in their divots.
Great Views-
Great conditions, green speed was fair. Staff always made you feel welcome. Will definitely play this course again.
At times it felt like I was at Augusta National.
Always a favorite
We always include this course when we visit Hilton Head. As low handicap players, we find that the course is challenging and fair, offering lots of risk and reward.
Consistently great
course is in constant great condition. Would highly recommend course to anyone. Best value for golf on the island
Great place to play off HH island
Course was great condition and not crowded. greens were fast great for all skill levels
Great course -- one of my favourites in Hilton Head.
Always great course.......shameful that it could go away
As usual it was an enjoyable day of golf. The course has a great layout. Only downside is the lack of sand deep enough in the bunkers. When this one becomes homes and condos, it will be a great loss to the area for visiting golfers.
A favorite to play
Course is always in great condition. Fairways, bunkers and greens were in great shape.
great vaca
last minute decision to play, so glad we did. next trip first on our list!
This is a must play golf course when you are down in Hilton Head. The blue tees make it a good challenge.
Great cou se conditions and value
Course was in great shape. Played at 10:30 and played in 3:50 hours (twosome). Price for beer and hot dogs at turn very reasonable; can’t wait to play again.
Course in good shape
Cart attendants were very nice, check in okay but not very welcoming; starter was a little curt. Greens were a little slow but healthy; fairways in good shape.
