Oyster Reef Golf Course

The course was in bad shape with the greens having a lot of sand and in some cases other damaged areas. For the greens fees we paid, which were beyond reasonable, the course was not worth it. Very disappointed with the course. The pace of play was not managed. We waited on every hole and just about every shot.

The conditioning of the course was not worth the price of the green fee. There was a Marshall on the course but he was more interested in looking for golf balls in the thick rough than making sure pace-of-play was being respected. It was a solid 4hr 30min round, maybe even 4hr 45min round.

I have been playing this course for at least 20 years during my winter stop in HH. It has a terrific layout and a hole that runs out to the Sound (priceless in HH.) Play was jammed up on the back nine 9it was late in the day) so because I was a single I left my group 9with apologies) and asked the cart attendant if I could redo the front nine. His response was fantastic. "Go for it" he said and play as many as you can because I will be here until long after dark. I played a full nine in about 60 minutes. Thanks "Ian" for your help and for making sure that Oyster Reef remains my favourite golf course on the island.

Pace of play (7:40 AM start) was perfect. A leisurely 4 hrs for our 3 players. Weren't pushing players in front, weren't being pushed by players behind. Staff very friendly and informative. Conditions were good considering still spring (3/9) but not great. Greens were very nice, and true. Scoring could've been lower but unfamiliarty with course cost us more than several strokes. A nice course but priced a bit steeper than condition and play warranted.

Although a bit pricey, Oyster Reef is a quality layout with good conditions. Pace of play 4:20. seven.

We mentioned to the Marshall after the first nine took over 2.5 hours to try and get the groups ahead of us to pick up the pace. The men right in front of us were hitting from a tee box that was too long for them, they would wait too long to hit their shots and were playing 2 or 3 balls each. The Marshall didn’t do anything. Very disappointed.

Teed off at noon and starter said they had 215 reservations that day. Front 9 took 21/2 hours. Due to slow beginner players ahead, had to wait ever shot. At the turn the Starter offered rain check if you wanted .

Back nine clear sailing and did not have to wait for a single shot, great fun. Back nine was best layout very challenging.

Greens putted true and were in good shape especially considering the level of play it gets.

Overall well run course, I will return.

Nice course, well maintained, helpful staff, good pace of play. Nice break from northern Michigan.

Pace was tough. Many folks had to jump a beginner couple.

This was a great course with a really fun layout. Staff was welcoming and pace was great even on a packed day. Will come back!

We played Two courses in Hilton Head and this course was by far our favorite! Beautiful lay out and Staff was great! Totally recommend this course!

It was a very nice course lots of dog legs, which were unexpected. A lot of the par fours the ladies tees were at the same place as the men’s tees. Nor fair as some of the par 4s were longer than normal.
