Barony at Port Royal Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Barony course Photo submitted by JIMMYLAW77 on 01/10/2018
Beautiful
Great course for the money, we were 2 couples , had a great time and payed 65$ for an afternoon game.
Great course
Friendly staff. Great conditions. Challenging but rewarding
Disappointed in conditions
We were disappointed in the course conditions. For the player who doesn’t have any discounts this wasn’t worth the price compared to other courses on the island.
Don’t Do It
Course has been beat to heck from all of the travel play. It’s burned up in a lot of areas, bunkers not raked, for +2 to Single digit handicappers no challenging holes. Don’t rent clubs either, bring your own, but that’s just a personal mistake, should’ve known better.
Go play Paris Island instead or Hilton Head National.
Turtle pace of play.
Started nearly 30 minutes late and took almost 3 hours to play 9 holes. Pace of play was horrendous. Course was fine. Not much character to the holes. Ended up leaving after 9 holes instead of suffering through another 3 hours. Would never pay full price for a round here.
Caroline golfer
Didn’t get to finish round due to rain but somewhat disappointed with the course conditions..especially the forward tee boxes and fairways. Too high price tag to what we got.
Great course for beginners or advance players.
Friendly staff in Clubhouse, starter and bags. Good supplies in clubhouse. Play went off with well timed starts. Would definitely play here again.
