Oyster Reef Golf Course
About
Oyster Reef features elevated tees and lush fairways lined by thick stands of live oak and pine. Numerous doglegs accented by strategically located mounds and fairway bunkers, call for well-planned tee shots. Varying sizes of greens with well-defined tiers place a premium on precise approach shots.
The par-3 sixth hole, which plays 192 yards from the back tees to a green set against a backdrop of Port Royal Sound, is one of the most visually spectacular holes on Hilton Head. Oyster Reef is now a semi-private member-owned club with a limited number of tee times for guest play,
The carefully-maintained facility, designed by noted course architect Rees Jones, continues to be a favorite destination for serious golfers as well as a favorite with locals.

One of your better options on HHI
Our second time playing Oyster Reef, and we liked it again this time. Reasonably challenging layout with many bunkers but plenty of room to play, as well. Greens are good - medium speed and held shots. The only negative from a conditioning standpoint is that the forward tees (and the range hitting area) were both in bad shape. The middle and back tees were OK, however. Look for a Hot Deal and you won't do much better on HHI. PS - clubhouse is nice and food is excellent, too.
Oyster Reef Always delivers
Even though the course was setting play records staff , starter and ranger kept everyone up to date and set expectations for play. Conditions were excellent and our pairing for play partners couldn’t have been better.
Great course for all golfer types. Course layout and bunker placement is well designed creating visual challenges from the tee box. To best score on this course is to have a yardage book and plan your tee shots accordingly. Overall conditions of the course were good for April. I have played many courses on HH island. This is a top 5 course on island at a good value.
Good course
Disappointing in that no GPS or scorecard with the layout. Certainly they out of town first time guests? Good course, a few greens a bit rough.
Oyster Reef
Great course. The bunkers were strategically placed to make this course challenging. Pace was good for weekend play.
Very pleasant staff

Bloody Mary.
Enjoyable
Played with my 2 sons. Course was in good condition and very playable ,but challenging for a super senior (from the green tees).
Slow slow slow
Over 5 hours to play. Fairway grass was thin. Green good. Sand good
Fun Day
Myself, wife and I enjoyed the course. Fairways were a bit thin but very playable. Bunkers were really nice. Lots of them...
Thank you for your comments, and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the course.
