Gator at Golden Bear Photo submitted by fusselbe on 11/07/2012
Great condition
The courses fairways, tee, greens and even rough were in excellent shape. This superintendent definitely knows what he’s doing.
Very overated
Course lacks any management pay money shut up5 hour round no ranger. Talked to starter /pro not interested with dealing with it. Seems to be common problem .this is why golf is going down hill .
We are truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience and the lack of management responsiveness you encountered. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we strive to improve; thank you for bringing this to our attention and feel free to give us a call to discuss in more detail.
Great round
Everything about my round was perfect. Went out as a single and got paired up with a twosome from Rochester NY. Mike and Joe busted on each other from start to finish. I felt like I was home lol. From booking my tee time to finishing up my round at the end was picture perfect
Thank you for sharing your positive experience; we're thrilled everything from booking to the company of Mike and Joe contributed to a perfect round. Looking forward to having you back soon!
Happy Again
1. The course was in great shape
2 The pace was excellent
3. Driving Range was super
4 the staff was outstanding. Jeff in the morning pro shop and Jim in the afternoon were the best. Thank you
We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the course, pace, driving range, and our staff, especially Jeff and Jim! Thank you for your kind words and for choosing us.
Very nice course with really different holes, not all cookie cutter.
Thank you for appreciating the unique design of our course! We strive to provide a distinct and enjoyable experience for every golfer.
Greens in great shape starter was very friendly
Course was in great shape pace of play a little slow was behind a group of locals who hit two balls every tee shot.
Thank you for your review and for complimenting the condition of the course. We apologize for the slow pace of play and will look into management solutions for a better experience.
First Time
Our first time here although we have played many of the Hilton Head courses. Reasonably priced. Wide landing areas but be wary of the large live oaks that overhang the fairways. The greens were immaculate though the back nine was slower. I thought the course played shorter (6200 yards felt more like 5800) than the marked yardage as the fairways were firm. One issue - I ended up in a pond that was not marked with a stake tall enough to be seen from the fairway -- and with out GPS os unknown to a first time player. A few pins were in rather interesting places for a resort course but there is nothing unusual about that occurrence. We will be back on our next trip.
Thank you for your detailed feedback and for choosing our course for your golfing experience. We apologize for the confusion regarding the unmarked pond and will look into improving our course markings to enhance the experience for all players. Looking forward to welcoming you back on your next trip.
Great course, great Golf Mow rate.
Excellent course. Was I great shape. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Nice layout. Would highly recommend. Snack bar closes relatively early and I played later but that is understandable…Also got a great rate on Golf Now.
Thank you for your kind words about our golf course and staff, and for recommending us! We're glad to hear you found a great rate and appreciate your understanding regarding the snack bar's hours.
Good course
We had a great time although it was crowded.
RBC weekend in Hilton Head so everyone and their mothers were out playing golf.
Watch out for the gators !
