Course was trash - not sure when they mowed anything

Holes in the fairway, high growing uneven grass around the greens. They told us greens were recently aerated but that doesn’t excuse the condition of the overall course

Barony

The greens were aerated 5 days prior to me playing. I didn’t know this until I arrived at the course. It was difficult putting.

Greens need aerated and I understand this.

The only real complaint that I have is the layout or map of the course. I played this course 12 years back and didn’t remember any of the holes.

There was no pictures of the holes in the cart, on the scoreboard or on the tee box signs. I was paired with a couple and the 3 of us totally played it blind. There were several times where we would have done something different after seeing hazards, distances to fairway bends, hazards, etc. I was surprised this course didn’t have GPS, but they need to provide a map of each hole showing hazards, curves, distances, etc.

I would recommend that this be provided.

Aerated Greens

We called the course 2 weeks before playing and they confirmed they would not be aerating greens until after our vacation, so we booked a round. Unfortunately, the greens were freshly aerated and terribly sandy when we arrived. Disappointing round of vacation golf on an otherwise decent course.

A disappointment, with potential.

This was my first time visiting the course, after hearing many great praises from locals around the area for about 2 years.

To say I was disappointed was an understatement. I've played a bunch of courses on HHI and many of them have similar designs (a lot of dogleg holes, narrow, small greens etc..) but this one seemed as if every hole was nearly the same. I found myself saying "Oh another dog leg left" on nearly every hole. Maybe I missed something, but I didn't feel like it was a very compelling design or very scenic. I will admit a bit of bias since this style of golf requires a lot of patience and execution which I admittedly did not have on a 88+ degree day.

I understand all courses in this area punch their greens and top coat with sand around this time of the year but there was no notification when I booked my tee time, no warning in the pro shop, no heads up from any staff member. After hearing this was a GREAT golf course for almost 2 years I was just disappointed. The practice green was in excellent shape, and I was so excited to play on greens that fast, and what we got was 18 straight holes of bumps, sand, uncut greens etc..

We were there quite a bit early for our tee time, and although I never expect to go out early if I show up early the starter was rude to me when I asked if there was any chance we could get out early, almost laughing at me.

With less than desirable course design for my game, poor green conditions during my visit, a rude staff member, no incredibly unique holes that are must plays.. I'm not sure this will be a repeat visit for me.

Poor Greens condition

Course greens had been aerated and top dressed and of course no one told us about it. Greens very slow and bumpy and inconsistent. Round took almost 5 hours. Charged $35 for my wife to ride along which I thought was high.

Port Royal

Played this course today and could not have had a worse time. Pace of play was slow and the course Marshall got irritated that we complained about pace of play. The greens were aerated but in terrible condition not caused by the aeration. I would never recommend this course to a friend or anyone. The staff (other than the pro shop employee) were rude and unfriendly. Stay away and don’t waste your money here.

Truly a resort course experience

For the price be prepared for a slow round, lots of narrow holes through a housing development, and average conditions. I played this course and Hilton Head national in the same trip, highly recommend HHN over this even though it's a bit of a drive from those staying on island. Would rather spend the extra money and play sea pines than go back here.

Good course.

The courteous employees. Especially the fella width the Boston accent. I appreciate a bit of humor. I golfed at a couple other courses before this one on the island. I feel obligated to point out that the green conditions were not the best as compared with the other places I golfed on the island wit comparable prices. But, I would return because we always stay at a nearby hotel.

Great golf. Very well maintained. Friendly wide fairways that can be made harder by moving back to longer tees. Very friendly staff

Guys trip

Very accommodating and friendly service.

Fairways were excellent and greens good.

Only negatives are lack of gps and cart beverage service. Halfway house or cart would’ve been nice

Fun course!

Great conditions throughout the entire course! I was originally scheduled to play there on a Friday afternoon, but I canceled because of early morning rains were heavy. Re-scheduled on Saturday and I was fully expecting the pace of play to be slow. Hardly anyone out there, kinda strange. I’ll return!
