Gator at Golden Bear Photo submitted by fusselbe on 11/07/2012
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!
Great Course
The weather was Perfect. I played with a father & son from MI and they were great to play with. Staff was friendly and the course was in excellent shape for late March. The course was challenging but not too hard. I highly recommend the course and will be going back next year.
We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the perfect weather, the company, and our course's condition! Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back next year.
Golden Bear Golf course was a disappointment.
We were very disappointed with this course. The staff on the clubhouse was not friendly as we checked in.
We were rushed to tee off as they were ahead of schedule. Our tee time was chosen as it was the time that suited vs an earlier time.
The cart paths were rough with many potholes.
Some of the women’s tees were weedy.
We had never played at this course before. There was not a map of the tees /fairways either in the cart or on the score card.
Generally, we were very under whelmed by this course. We will not return and I would not recommend to others.
Good value at discount rate
We booked our time after 2:00 for $65. A solid value compared to other courses. I don’t think it would feel the same at full price of $135. Course was in good condition but wouldn’t be worth the full price
The course is a good course, in good condition and it has some challenges. The employees were helpful and quite friendly. I am happy to recommend the course
Fantastic
First time we’ve visited HH, first course we played.
Great conditions and great attention to detail on turf and the course in general. Well done grounds crew!
$60 3pm tee time snuck us in before sunset. Slow play as to be expected.
A great deal compared to the next course we played (bear creek). Pick this one - it’s worth an extra $20+ or if similar prices for tee times.
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!
