About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6543 yards
Slope 137
Rating 71.9

The Barony Course at Port Royal Golf Club constitutes 18 of this well-known island facility's 54 holes.

Playing to just 6,543 yards from the gold tees, Barony is a very enjoyable course for all skill levels. The back nine in particular is a fine mix of long and short holes. Like its sister courses at Port Royal, Barony begins and ends at the club's beautiful Antebellum-style clubhouse.

From the tee, many of the holes on Barony appear to be relatively open. But as you approach the green the real challenge of the course becomes clear. The greens are small and protected by deep bunkers and Bermuda rough, demanding an excellent touch with the medium and short irons. This is a course where accuracy, not length is the key factor.

A lot of dogleg lefts

Great course but righties better draw tee shots or lay up at the bends. Tight but fair and the fairway rough/hazard areas are well maintained. Jay at the pro shop was beyond hospitable. Never been treated better

Nice to be back!

Beautiful day, nice course, and played with my son. His first time at this course. With all the dog leg lefts, he loved it. Being a left to right guy, it gave me a chance to adapt to my surroundings.

Course was in very nice condition. (most) Sand traps were in great condition, much nicer than back where I’m from. Greens were in great condition. Enjoyed our round, though not our scores. Will look forward to another visit down the road.

Robbers Row

Had to play Robbers Row instead of Barony due to a storm. Excellent layout and the course was in decent shape even after the storm.
