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.

Great layout, but needs some TLC

You can feel the potential in this course, but I feel it needs some significant maintenance to bring it back to a Hilton Head course. My family is staying on another course but wanted to try to save some money...we would have been better off spending the extra money for the fairway and green conditions that our home course had.

Challenging Course

Third time we have played the course is like any other at this time of the year in SC. WE completely enjoyed it! Back nine is better shape than front, but Fairways and Greens are getting there for sure

Greens need grass

Grass was very thin on the greens, making every putt very bumpy.

Tight course, better hit them straight.

Fun round and great value

This is a great course. It’s a bit dry now, so the greens seem to be growing in a bit. They were a bit bouncy when putting. I’ll be back later in the season to see if they get grow in and get trimmed to what I normally experience here.

Not in great shape

We had a nice day on the course, and really enjoyed the layout, but the course was in rough shape.

Nice layout

But in awful shape! Not even worth the favorable pricing. It was like hitting off of cement and putting across weeds

Nice layout, but in need of maintenance

Greens were weedy, fairways like hardpan, with not much grass, and tees chopped up and sandy. course has the potential to be VERY nice, but not until some $$$ are spent to improve the basics.

Good value, Enjoyed Round

Played peak weekend on Hilton Head, so I played off-Island and comparables saved over $100 on GN; well worth it. Good track, scenic marsh course, not too close to much housing, plenty of wildlife. Saw Alligator, wild turkey, osprey, more. Multiple tee boxes let you pick off how much challenge of Arnie’s design you want. There’s A LOT of water, pick the right Tee box.

Conditions good for time of year

The course was in good condition for the time of year. Played course last year and can definitely see improvement from last year. Challenging course, all in all a fun day of golf.
