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.

winter golf
I was hoping for some green grass, but everything was doormats. Other than that a nice day. Water and holes going both left and right .
Great buy
The course is located near my home. The specials are great.
Thank you brannbo2 for your review and feedback of our golf club. We love that we are conveniently located so close to your place of residence, which means a lot of golf! Please let us know if you ever need anything at all and we look forward to your visits!
Hidden gem
Well laid out. Nice variable of challenges. Cart paths smooth. Excellent practice area.
first beer in temporary club house only $1
Personable employees.
Thank you jcpenney1997 for your review and feedback. You can't beet $1.00 beers and friendly staff as it's the small things that count. Thanks again and please come back and see us often as we would love to have you back!
Gets better every time
Good layout! Wide open with plenty of room for spraying your shots, but out of position dramatically lengthens your approach. Have here a few times and each visit indicates improvement is important.
Thank you drhaysone for your review of The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes! Thank you for noticing all of the hard work we have done this past year and we are thrilled you like the layout. Please come back and see us again soon!
Worth Playing
A fun course that fit my game. It was a bit breezy and carts were on the paths due to earlier rain. Because of this we had very long walks. I would really like to play it when dry. The layout was interesting. The greens true. Good undulation.
Thank you David for your review. We are sorry that rain played apart in your golf day and we also hope you come back and visit us when we dry up. Cart path only can make the day a bit longer, but we are glad you enjoyed yourself and we hope to see you again soon!
Hilton Head Lakes
Did not get to play all of the course. Thunderstorms rolled in and play was cancelled. Did like what I say. Will play again.
Great course for the money!!
This course is a great value!!!! I recommend this course to everyone.
Thank you very much for the review. We have really worked hard on all aspects of the golf course and are very happy you see the value in golfing with us. Please let your friends know about The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes and we hope we see you again very soon!
New Favorite Course
Love this Tom Fazio course. Will be one of the best when the development takes off.
Thank you so much for your review! We appreciate the positive feedback and hope that you will continue to golf with us throughout the seasons!
Okay course for the value
Nothing on course or scorecard identifying hole design. 4 holes were a total guess as to which direction the hole played.
Driving range was shut down for no apparent reason. We arrived early to warm up and could not.
Thank you for your review and feedback as this gives us the opportunity to always be improving your experience with us. We are sorry you had some confusion on which way to play the holes and we will look at this to improve play. We sometimes have to shut down the driving range for multiple reasons and we thank you for your understanding. Please come back and visit us again and please let us know if there is anything else we can do to improve your experience.
Hilton Head Lakes
Good course to play. Generous fairways with challenges when approaching the greens. Greens were in excellent shape and putt true. If you are a senior play the forward tees. Staff is very friendly and always welcome you. Will be playing again in the future.

Perfect Day
Other then finding the temporary starting point until the club house is built everything was great. Extremely friendly staff and starter. Course has wide fairways and the greens were in great shape. Will definitely be coming back.
Thank you hockeycop1 for your feedback and review of The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes. We are working hard to have the club house finished soon and are happy you see the value in golfing here. We strive in providing excellent customer service, as well as pristine golfing conditions for our guests. Please come back and visit us again soon!
Good all around course!
Nice fairways and greens. In good shape considering the amount of rain.
Thank you otterkillchamp for your kind review and wonderful feedback. We are always looking for ways of improving the course and most of all the golfer experience. We are so happy to hear you had an enjoyable experience with us and we hope you will continue to come back throughout the season!
Almost unplayably wet
We expected that it may be cart path only , which it was, but we found seven of the first 11 holes too wet to really play. We gave up after 11 holes. When course conditions are this bad, management should close the course or offer a discounted repeat play at a later and drier date
Thank you just1cat for your review and feedback of our facility. We understand conditions were wet and we decided to remain open to accommodate play for our guests. We hope you will continue to play with us and we look forward to seeing you again when the course has dried up some.
A really enjoyable round of golf.....
It is literally three minutes from I-95 at Exit 8, so easy access is an understatement.
A brand new clubhouse is under construction and looks like it is going to be a fabulous facility. A temporary unit serves as a clubhouse but it is extremely well maintained and fully stocked with everything you would need and/or want. I found the staff to be some of the most cordial, amiable, helpful and professional that I have encountered and a special thanks to Kole who answered every and any question I had with regards to the course. The course was in great condition with tightly mowed fairways, raked bunkers and greens that were in excellent condition that rolled true. The layout is perfect for all shot shapes and offers a challenge to the high, mid and low handicap golfer. Pace of play is average for this time of year.
I truly enjoyed everything about my experience at this course and I believe you will as well.......
I will most definitely be a return customer........!
Thank you nocryingingolf for your detailed and thorough review. We are so grateful that you took the time and energy to give us your feedback of the golf course, as we work very hard to meet our guests expectations and it is nice to see the hard work being recognized on every aspect of the course. We hope we can continue to impress you and please let us know if there is anything we can do to make for a better experience here at The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes!
New course for us
Our foursome thoroughly enjoyed this course. The greens are in excellent condition and fairways are wide open. It is a course that is fair for average women golfers as well as men. We will return.
Thank you Larrywolfe for your review and feedback of our golf club. We appreciate you taking the time and we enjoy having you out on the course. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to improve your experience. Thank you for golfing with us and please come back again soon!
A really well laid out golf course with great character.
With a little TLC this course could be spectacular. I especially liked the greens- very consistent. I played the blue tees and was tested with all of my clubs. A little overwatered in spots on the tees and fairways, but a very fun course to play. Great value for the money!!
Thank you mikedodger for your feedback and review. We are continually working on improving course conditions throughout the facility and we appreciate you letting us know how we can be a better golf club. We are happy you see the value in golfing here, so please come back and golf with us again soon. Thanks again!
GOOD COURSE
I'd play this course again. Found it on web by chance. Played in very damp, windy overcast conditions - a little rain last few holes. Played on a Monday morning - had a 10am tee time. We showed up a little after 9am and they fit us into the cue. The greens were in great shape, fairways wide, but tight lies. The staff was great and so was the price. Enjoyed the round - lots of water; but, not in play unless you have trouble hitting wide fairways. In a very new development - clubhouse in a trailer, but well stocked.
Thank you drgervais for visiting us at The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes. We appreciate your review and positive feedback and hope you will continue to golf with us. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your experience better.
Great course
Course was great. Greens rolled true. Can't wait to get back
Thank you Russell for taking the time to review our golf club. We have put a lot of attention into course conditions this year in an effort to improve our guests experience throughout the entire facility. We can't wait to have you back!
Great time but no beer girl

Need a beer cart on the weekends
Thank you Dobsoph for your continued play and wonderful feedback of our facility. We hope you will continue to play with us here at Hilton Head Lakes and we look forward to seeing you again very soon!
