About

Type Resort

Par 72

Length 6657 yards

Slope 134

Rating 73.3

A Pete Dye redesign of a George Cobb and Willard Byrd original design helped take the Robber's Row Course at Port Royal Golf Club toward the head of the pack on Hilton Head. Dye added or redesigned 43 bunkers on the front nine, changing par from 35 to 36 and did some shortening on the back nine to change par from 37 to 36.

The golf course plays little more than 6,000 yards, with a somewhat-friendly 124 slope rating from the tips. Players will have to do some work on their approach shots, as the Cobb/Dye design keeps its greens well protected with bunkers.

The golf course is a scenic delight, however, and in a nice move, you get history lessons at the tee boxes to help let you know the past of the area you are playing, which was once an important location in the Civil War.

Overpriced but decent cource

Very small greens that were in pretty good shape. Fairways and tees not so much but was early in the year so may be better in the summer months. $40 cart fees per person are a little ridiculous but seem to be the norm on HHI. Hilton Head National was much better and cheaper. Will not play this course again. Wasn’t a bad course but why spend that kind of money when there are other courses just off the island that are cheaper and in better shape?

Don't pass up on playing this course.

All aspects of the day were very good. Helpful staff, course in good condition, compatible and friendly playing partner, relaxing after round.

This is one of the Hidden Gems on HHI. Many pass it by because it has been here so long. Forget that. It is worth it from many angles.

Very nice course!

We have played RobbersRow several times while in Hilton Head. Greens are in excellent shape, however the fairways really need some work. Love the layout. One thing that keeps us coming g back is a very friendly staff.
