Brigantine/Clipper at Shipyard Golf Club

Enjoyable day of golf ⛳

Alligators were ever present and stayed in place. They added to the fun and did result in speedy shots at times. We finished 30 minutes early.

This was our favourite course on Hilton Head. It was certainly challenging enough, with great nature, birds and lots of gators from small ones to hearing a giant one roar or bellow! Quite impressive and alarming , apparently a mating call. If you want an enjoyable golfing challenge rolled in with nature, this is the course for you!

Greens rolled well! Layout was fair, but lots of doglegs which take driver away. Was cart path only on the back and didnt see any reason for it (Fairways were nice and dry). Overall conditions were very good. Guys in the clubhouse and cart girl were friendly, but starter not so much.

My wife and I played there for our Anniversary which happened to also be Mothers Day. - in general course conditions OK but expected better for the price- fairways patchy and dry - greens dry and sandy / some much better than others. Interesting that with all the rain, course must have limited to top soil base to retain moisture. Nice staff- very good Pro Shop. Had a lot of fun. Conditions did not affect our games . Wouldnteturn, even though there are other courses in the Island that have more beauty and better conditions. MAB Sterling Heights, MI

Overall the course was not in good shape. The fairways and green aprons were completely devoid of grass in some areas and very spotty in others as were the tee boxes. The greens were a bit better with sand traps well maintained. The worst part was the rudest, smug starter I have ever encountered anywhere and this was not just my opinion. He is a poor representative for the golf experience at Shipyard, as someone in every group has to come in contact with him to start your round. The rest of the staff were overall friendly but the starter needs to be replaced.

terrific especially the greens. But the sides of the fairways were barren, and the lies were almost impossible for all but experts.

There were 6+ fairways that were hard grassless dirt. There were a number of greens with work being done around the fringes (ie red flags). 11th green was ragged. Very disappointing considering the price. Look elsewhere.
