East at Belfair Golf Club
About
Featuring two of Tom Fazio's most impressive designs, the Belfair Golf Club stands out amongst private clubs in the Hilton Head golf scene.
"Belfair is the ultimate in golf. It's Shadow Creek quality," Fazio has said of the club. "I'd stake my reputation on the fact that Belfair is as good as any golf course you will ever see or play."
The West course came first, and Fazio was immediately rehired for the East course. Each course offers its own challenge, but Fazio worked with the natural landscape to ensure that both courses would have the ambiance of its location. Each features grandiose pines, marshland and native grasses.
"Fazio has really done some of his more impressive work at Belfair," said a TravelGolf.com writer.

Good, solid Lowcountry golf
I had played the West Course in the past, but never had a chance to get over to the East Course. I'm pleased that I did. This track is strong, and the par 3s in particular are terrific. The greens are another star of the show and have great character.
I think I still like the West Course better, but it's as close to a toss-up as you can get. You can't go wrong with either place and the clubhouse atmosphere for a post-round drink is fantastic. This place provides a great golf experience.
