Hilton Head National Golf Club
About
Sprawling across 300 acres of lush, Carolina Lowcountry, Hilton Head National Golf Club has gained a reputation as being one of the area's best public courses. The course was a collaboration between Gary Player and Bobby Weed, who each designed a nine. Weed designed the front nine with the intention of creating a complement to the Player-designed back nine rather than making them too similar. He included larger greens with more dramatic undulations. The signature hole is the tricky sixth, which features the largest lake on the golf course bordering its entire right side and deep pot bunkers along the greensides. The back nine has many challenging holes as well, including the course's number one handicap hole, the par-5 seventh. It is the ninth that might be Hilton Head National's toughest though, with a deep marsh along the right side of a narrow fairway.

Hard to beat this...
Excellent conditions overall. Driving range perfectly maintained. Greens fast (10 plus) and in excellent shape. Fairways superb for this time of year, Dormant Bermuda rough reasonably playable.
Played with a local regular and a visiting teen from Montreal (great junior golfer and fun to watch) in a little under four hours.
Just wish my play could have matched the course. I will certainly be back

Disappointed with condition
We play National almost every year and have always enjoyed the layout and condition of the course. However the condition of the course was not good this time. It was not worth the green fees charged even with the GolfNow special deal. There was evidence of a lot of sod laid in various areas on the course and fairways were in rough condition. There was construction on the course. Pro shop staff were friendly and efficient.
Hi. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We understand your frustration with the construction projects underway. Please bear with us as we work diligently to make improvements. We hope you'll give us another try in the future. Thanks for choosing Hilton Head National Golf Club.
Nice Track But...
Staff really friendly...
Tee offs on par 3s in rough shape
Fairways good
Greens great 10 on the stimp meter ie fast hold a mid iron, and roll true. stay below the pins...
Bunkers soft and firm base easy to play.
Rough dormant easy length to play out of.
Problem due to I assume heavy rains is collection areas, were muddy tapped down sparse lies. Hard to chip off.
Kinda pricey compared to other courses in the area, but track layout is interesting. Have to position ball well to score.
Hello, and thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to our staff. Thanks for visiting Hilton Head National Golf Club!
Nice, well maintained course in HH area. A bit wet in spots due to recent rains. Greens excellent.

Not quite up to the hype
Had heard from several golfers on Hilton Head that this course was worth playing. Perhaps it was the pace of play that made it seem average at best. 2 foursomes ahead of us so we watched every shot. Greens are good, lots of subtle breaks. The layout is not terribly challenging, you miss the fairway you are inevitably in pine straw. Water only comes into play on total miss hits. I am a 14 handicap and I never lost a ball which is a rarity.
If you are on HHI I would stick with Cupp, Golden Bear at Indigo or Dolphin Head.
Hello, Brian. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to see that your overall experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you'll give us another try in the near future. Thanks for choosing Hilton Head National Golf Club.

Very Good Experience
I will first clarify my Fair rating for Off Course Amenities. This rating is based strictly on the fact the bar closed before we were finished, disappointing. We finished shortly after 5 and were definitely not the last people off the course. Everything else was first rate, from the welcome at the bag drop to the pro shop and starter. We waited a few minutes on most holes but even then we were only shortly over 4 hours. Course is in great shape and only a couple holes cart path only, not bad considering the amount of rain lately. All in all a very good day.

Exceeded my expectations!
Beautiful day and I wanted to play golf, so got online and found it easy to get a tee time. The starter was extraordinary, with a crowded course he expertly joined singles and started each group to make a wonderful 9 hole experience.
The course was impeccable, the system on the carts was easy, the greens were great.
Even Kristy in the snack bar was great, efficient, personable. Cannot day enough good things.

First trip to Hilton Head
Traveled to Hilton Head for the day only to get out of the rain in NE Georgia. Perfect weather day and a very helpful, friendly staff made it worth the trip. The course was in really good condition for mid-February. Turkeys and alligators seen on the course were a bonus!

Absolutely beautiful!!
The pace of play was great. The course is in fantastic shape, and the scenery is spectacular!
If I lived in the area, this would be the course that I would buy a membership to play everyday.
The wildlife is very interesting- from the black-faced squirrels, the all black squirrels, the alligators, the birds, and the wild turkeys.
I can’t wait to play again!
