Oyster Reef features elevated tees and lush fairways lined by thick stands of live oak and pine. Numerous doglegs accented by strategically located mounds and fairway bunkers, call for well-planned tee shots. Varying sizes of greens with well-defined tiers place a premium on precise approach shots.
The par-3 sixth hole, which plays 192 yards from the back tees to a green set against a backdrop of Port Royal Sound, is one of the most visually spectacular holes on Hilton Head. Oyster Reef is now a semi-private member-owned club with a limited number of tee times for guest play,
The carefully-maintained facility, designed by noted course architect Rees Jones, continues to be a favorite destination for serious golfers as well as a favorite with locals.

SLOW PACKED PL. BUT HELPFUL RANGER
We spent about 3 hrs to plow thru the first nine until a very helpful ranger directed the very slow foursome in front of us to pick up and move to the next home It took the whole front 9 for the rangers to stop telling us the whole course was packed and get the laggers to skip forward
