The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes
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.

Golfer Reviews
Better Weather Better Experience
Played HHL for the second time. First time was in a steady rain for half of the round. This time, in late December, the weather was sunny with minimal breeze and we had a great experience. Played as a twosome and even though we followed a foursome, the pace of play was fine. The greens were in excellent condition and the speed was mid to fast. Most of the tee boxes were in great shape with only the par 3s being fairly heavily sanded. The fairways were over-seeded and a little damp as would be expected, but not severe. The rough was dormant and pretty easy to hit out of. Played the hybrid tees (white tees, with a mixture of greens) at a distance of about 6000 yards which was good for this 59 year old. The layout is great and most trouble is fairly easily avoidable. Overall great experience and will definitely be back.
We appreciate you rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes!
Thank you for sharing your positive experience!
Nice course! Good Value
My wife is my main golf partner so I do not look for really difficult courses. This is a nice course with some challenging par 4’s. But it is wide open so trees and water do not come into play. I have always been able to play 18 in 3.5 hours. Nice grill with excellent food. Well done!
Crowned holes
This is a fun, challenging course. Biggest negative is the crowning of the holes. It is impossible to lag putt. The ball is pushed to the side before it gets to the hole. If you put faster, it flies over. It is easy to lose 5 strokes on a round of 18.
Another enjoyable golf course
Playing Hilton Head lakes for several years I have found it very enjoyable. Staff is always helpful and friendly.
The course is challenging and fun to play. I personally love the back nine.
The price to play is spot on and there is always a sale at the Pro Shop. Since the grill has open we enjoy stopping for a bit to eat and a drink.

Great Layout
Great course. Nice layout. Greens were on the quick side. The staff was helpful and polite but was surprised to staff behind the counter chewing tobacco and spitting in a cup. Not used to see this taking place at other courses we play while visiting the island.
Wanted to Play a Course Designed By Tom Fazio
Played on 11/19/20.
Course was in great shape. I’m a 66 year old, 20 handicap, so I chose the green tees at 5600 yards.
I’ve played other Fazio courses, the best being Pelican Hill in Newport Beach California. The layout here was fairly typical, but fun. The front has quite a bit of new housing construction, while the back is mostly “through the woods.” There are no narrow tee shots from the “geezer tees,” and the water hazards are very manageable.
All in all it was a good round.
We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us 5 stars. We're delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the course. We work hard to provide an exceptional experience, and it's very satisfying to hear from golfers like you who appreciate our efforts. We look forward to having you back The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes!

Low Country Quality / Value Course
Worth a trip off of Hilton Head in search of "golfing value." Course layout is challenging with mix of narrow landing areas, target golf concepts, "domed" greens, water hazards (plentiful), and limited sand traps. The course is extremely well kept, particularly fairways and tee boxes. Greens appear to be rolled Bermuda (roll really well, just not as aesthetically pleasing). Pace of play is quick as the crowd tends to be more local and respectful.
Joe Golfer
Really enjoy playing this course for the value. It's fairly new and trees need to grow in, but wide fairways make this course nice to play especially on a day where you are not straight off the tee!

Beautiful day with friends and course was great. Thank
Great shape for courses in this area. Challenging layout but wide fairways make it a second shot course. Will definitely play it again on next trip down.
