About

Crescent Pointe Golf Club in Bluffton is Arnold Palmer's only public course in the area. It is conveniently located just a few minutes west of the bridge leaving Hilton Head Island. Opened in 2000, the course has quickly gained a reputation as being one of the Lowcountry's best. Sprawling across a lush landscape blanketed with century-old oaks and towering pines, the layout is as scenic as it is challenging. While the generous fairways may be player friendly, the difficult approaches to the elevated, well bunkered greens are anything but. The large, pristine white sand bunkers were designed in true Palmer-style, closely following the natural undulations of the land. The gently rolling terrain is unique for the area. Crescent Pointe Golf Club's elevation changes aren't dramatic but they do provide some subtle, but tricky undulations in the greens that make it hard to find a flat lie.

Nice course

I enjoyed this course very much. Really has a nice layout and overall shape was good. Some tees boxs have been in bad shape for a awhile but Greens make up for it. People were Friendly's and would definitely return.

Greater Discount should be applied

This was a Hot Deal, but not hot enough for the conditions.

The tee boxes were nonexistent with little spots of grass, seeds and weeds.

There were 4-6 greens under repair.

Thee was standing water on two holes in the fairways, assuming a sprinkler system malfunction?

The course layout was very entertaining and made the round acceptable, while over priced.

OK.. The course needs work. The fairways are thin and the tees are currently being seeded. Figure on rolling the ball. Every sand bunker was raked and in good condition. Met previous players that stated in April the course was "horrible but now much improved". A challenging layout. Bring your shag bag. Well worth the price after playing three other HH courses this week.

very disappointed

Played this course many times always loved it the layout and conditions. Played in September and was so upset at the course conditions its a shame how they let this course get so bad. Will not play again unless they do some major work some greens were not puttable and we picked up our ball and moved on.

Great Layout - Poor Conditions

I love the layout of the Crescent but the conditions in Oct were aweful. Most holes were very wet due to poor drainage and fairways in general needed more grass! Some tee boxes are just dirt. Too bad nobody is investing money into course conditions because this course has some great potential!

Great potential

You can really see this course could be amazing. Unfortunately, neglect has left it patchy and unkept. Very loose soil and thin grass make any shot not perfectly struck play like a bunker shot. The layout is amazing, but Arnie is rolling over in his grave at the current condition.

It was a fun Course to play, T boxes were not well kept. Need to offer better food at the turn. The hotdogs we ate made us sick to our stomachs. We were unable to get to the cafe in the morning due to some meeting. should have a separate room for that.

2025, maybe

Last I played this course, ten years ago, I really liked it. It is a good layout, and was one of the better bargains in the HH area. It’s sad to see what has happened to the course in the interim. I was told it was purchased in April and they are trying to bring the course back. It won’t be this year, and I’d guess it won’t be next year either. Might be good to play if 2025 if they apply constant effort to its repair.

Just ok golf course

Arnold would be very disappointed to has his name tied to this course. It is a little run down and the greens were so slow due to the height of the grass on greens. Some of the greens were bad and some tee boxes were dirt. You get what you pay for and this place is no different.
