Challenging Course

My average drives are under 200 yrds so I played the Black/Green tees (5379 yards) which were adequate. I still hit hybrids/fairway woods into 9 of the 18 greens. But made up for that with 13 of 14 fairways and only 27 putts for a score of 80. My only gripe was that although I was on the tee sheet I was not in the system as having a reservation so there was the clerk at the pro shop would not honor the golfnow price.

First time pleasantly surprised

Regularly visit Hilton head but had not played palmetto hall. The cupp course was in good shape, fairways and tee boxes were great. We were told the greens were recently re done and punched. Could not tell that the greens had been punched and they rolled great. There were a few spots that looked damaged along the fringe on a couple holes but nothing effecting put play. The layout was challenging but fair off the tee. Lots of trouble to be found. Some green complexes were challenging, small and hard to keep the ball on the green if out of position. Can’t wait to play again the next time in town.

So-so

No one said greens were aerated.
Back nine was worse.
Clubhouse grill was very slow in attending to customers.
Based on this I paid too much for a round of golf with my wife. No highlights and relaxation to this golf outing. Disappointed

I would recommend this course

The Robert Cupp Course was fun to play. Now granted the the greens had just been aerated making the course tougher but that’s golf and the club had reduced green fees. Overall I enjoyed playing the course and so did my wife. We didn’t have a problem with pace of play. We were the second group off and passed the foursome ahead of us on the second tee. Played our normal three hour round.

At this time there is a lot of work going on. The course will be great when the new owner gets done with the work. At this time it is not great.

Very good course / Very high cost

Much improved course from 2 yrs ago. But owners seem to want to recoup their investment in one year.
Lower green fees might result in more players. Teed off around 1:00, with 6 holes open in front of us and 7 supposedly open behind us, so pace of play was excellent but player "load" did not seem to justify green fee. Will play elsewhere on HH until fee is more reasonable.

Good condition, considering

Fairways were good, greens were very good considering it's April. Pleasantly surprised to see a beverage cart on a Tuesday, although two drinks set us back 20 bucks, not counting tip. Bar and restaurant looked nice but closed at 4 so we were unable to give it a try. Would like to have had GPS on the carts. Got a good deal on Golf Now, otherwise a bit pricey. Definitely worth what we paid, though.

Plantation Hall Robert Cupp Course

Staff was very friendly, course is extremely dry, most greens under some kind of repair. Fairways were very dry and sandy. Conditions were poor compared to other courses in the area.

Over priced considering the condition of the course.

Greens were inconsistent- some fast some slow.
Many areas wee. Just sand- no grass. Disappointing for the price.
