Gator at Golden Bear Photo submitted by fusselbe on 11/07/2012
Nice course
Golden Bear is a good course for amateur golfers
It is not particularly difficult with few hazards to carry!
The greens were in very good shape!
Staff was extremely helpful and pleasant!
For vacation golf I would give it a thumbs up!
Solid track
We love playing Nicklaus designs - this makes #6 - good challenging layout but fair.
GreT course. Really lijr the layout
Great course. Beautiful holes abd good pace of olay
Layout and Fairway Grass
The experience at GB was fantastic. The layout was fair and gettable. I played the gold tees (6150)which were too short for me, but played with some non frequent golfers so I moved up to keep pace of play. Finished round in 4 hours which I was expecting longer based on reviews I had read. Overseeded fairways were a joy, and that alone was worth the extra money to play the course (compared to others nearby). I can’t wait to play again from the longer tees (6650)
Perfect course for an afternoon round
We took our golf loving boys, ages 8 and 13, for an afternoon round of 9. The staff and service were wonderful- helpful and professional. The course was in great condition and pace of play was steady, but not at all stressful. We will definitely be back again soon!
Play
I live in Hilton Head during the winter and spring
I was told that doesn’t qualify me for resident rates.
I pay taxes and utilities here but do not have a
SC drivers license. Not fair.
We apologize for the confusion regarding our resident rate qualifications. Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we will consider your situation for our future policies.
First time we played the course. Thought it was in great shape. Greens qew very good. Pace of play was slow. Needed a ranger out prodding some groups to move faster.
Thank you for taking the time to review your first visit to our course and for the compliments on its condition. We apologize for the slow pace of play and will take your feedback into consideration.
Fun Course!
Course was in great shape! Nice cart paths and water stations scattered around. Friendly staff
Thank you for your positive feedback! We're delighted you had a great experience.
Amazing Greens
Course was in great condition for late March. Had overseeded in the fall…everything green! Greens were in best condition on any course played in HHI….rolled true!
Thank you for sharing your positive experience; we're thrilled your family enjoyed their time at the course. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon!
