About
The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes is a Tom Fazio design that is challenging, but with five sets of tees it is versatile enough for players of all skill levels. Fazio deftly utilized the native wetlands and numerous lakes that are interspersed across the landscape, incorporating them along the expansive fairways and angled greens. The tricky greens have been carefully molded and contoured to offer a variety of pin placements. In addition to the water hazards, there are also numerous strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. The golf course will test your shot-making skills as well as your creativity. To complement the golf course, Hilton Head Lakes offers an equally impressive 36-acre, double-ended practice facility with target greens, bunkers, multiple practice greens, and even a par-3 short course.

Pay extra and stay on HHI
First time to the area and I realize there was some rain Monday night, but this course was still soggy wet. Rubber boots would have been the better foot attire. I’m guessing it never dies out. I think this is built on Jasper swamp???
I booked this course in error. I meant to book something closer to our condo for the week.
I wish I had paid a few extra dollars and played one of the nicer courses on HHI, avoided the drive and not soaked my shoes.
Nothing good or bad to say about the staff.
Back nine was better than the front!
It was okay.
Not a bad course... just nothing stood out about it. About average price for a course around there. I'm sure there are worse courses and better courses to play at. Don't mean to sound negative but nothing about this course makes me go "oh, that's a nice course".

No Drainage on course
All the houses yards drained to the course. Weeds in fairway, fairways were so wet it was hard to walk on them. Maybe under dry conditions it would be better

Traps
Overall a really good experience. Given we’ve had a lot of rain recently, I felt like the course was in as good of shape as you could expect given what you pay. The sand traps definitely needed some serious attention though. I will be back, hopefully soon.

Good value and conditions!
Alot of time and effort has gone into improvements in the course condition and it shows. Under $60 it's well worth it but if you have to pay more than that i would say there is lots if competition to play elsewhere.

Course in good shape
A nice surprise. Though it was cart path only due to overnight rain, the course was in very nice shape. Would definitely play again. Challenging but not too difficult from the front tees. Not too many homes on the course.

Great for the price, friendly staff!
Had a blast here. Fairways are forgiving. Course was very well kept, and our carts were brand new. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes.
I'll go again...
First time playing HH Lakes. Very relaxing day of golf. Hardly any trouble off the tee, fairways are wide. Greens are big bit with a lot of undulations. Course was in good/very good shape, greens were mostly recovered from seasonal aerating . Not sure that the course rating accurately represents the course difficulty - the rating suggested to me that the course would be more difficult than I actually experienced. Since it was my first visit, I played from the White tees, will play from the Blues next time. Maybe the tee boxes were pushed forward? Anyway, will visit again!

Course review
Greens were dyed/spray painted. Decent shape- not great. Fairways ok, but quite a lot of burnt out sections. Fairly open course. Back nine is much more scenic and challenging. Honestly - expected more.

Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes May 20,2022
The course itself was in decent condition, not $75 dollar conditions. The layout was a fun course, greens were very firm couldn’t hold even a wedge in. Pin placement was ridiculous, inches from fringe and on absurd undulations. Was rushed on 17 and 18 because cart manager/ marshal “wanted to go home”. Overall would not recommend unless price drops or conditions rise.

Average. Some maintenance issues.
This is a nice course with a friendly staff. My only issue was the sand traps. There were many, and it was like hitting the ball through clay. Frankly, I’m no expert sand trap maintenance, so I don’t know what you do to dry them out or fluff them up, but these were really bad.
Overall, we had a nice round, other than this issue.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Golf course
The back 9 was in really good shape
I thought the front 9 was a bit dry and greens a bit bumpy
