The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes
Rating Snapshot
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.

Nice Round of Golf
Took my grandkids for their first time on a championship course. This was ideal for that sort of activity as the pace of play was good and of course was not crowded. This course was in good shape compared to earlier times I played it. Greens real good. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Fun round of golf!
course was in good shape
I always enjoy HH Lakes.It has some really good par 4's and is fun to play. Greens were a little slower than I remembered but they were in good shape and putted true.
Zero enforcement for pace of play
The course itself was in great shape. But when it comes to pace there was zero enforcement by the Marshall for making sure the slow groups were letting people through. From holes 8 through 18 I waited a solid 15-20 minutes each hole to tee off. My round took almost 6 hours to complete. Not the first time I’ve had this problem at this course. I saw the Marshall cruising around the course 3 times during my round and not once did he care to get the slow group in front of me to let me play through. Might not be playing here anymore since the staff does not seem to care about your experience once you’ve paid and they have your money.
Hot…wet….but lovely!
We throughly enjoyed this course, however it was very wet from a previous day rain fall. Although wet, we enjoyed our time at the course. The fairways were wide with beautiful ponds and shade trees all along the way.
The drinks at the clubhouse were a nice reprieve from the hot and humid day!
We will definitely be back on a cooler, dryer day!
Who has the time and patience
We were in Hilton Head for a week and hit several courses in the area including The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes. We would like to give this a better rating since it had some favorable points but the course conditions were the worst we played on in our week there. Fairway grass was very thin in a majority of areas. The greens were especially poor. They were very thin in spots but even with that probably the slowest greens we have ever putted on. The staff were great, the pace of play was the best by far of all the courses we played, and the price was decent so those things brought our opinion back up a bit.
Needs a little love
I've played this course several times before. It's usually in pretty good shape. But tee boxes and fairways need a little love. I'm not sure if it's due to the snow the area got this winter, but for early May, some fairways are missing, like no grass growth. The greens were in decent shape. Hope the grass comes back soon.
