Crescent Pointe Golf Club
About
Crescent Pointe Golf Club in Bluffton is Arnold Palmer's only public course in the area. It is conveniently located just a few minutes west of the bridge leaving Hilton Head Island. Opened in 2000, the course has quickly gained a reputation as being one of the Lowcountry's best. Sprawling across a lush landscape blanketed with century-old oaks and towering pines, the layout is as scenic as it is challenging. While the generous fairways may be player friendly, the difficult approaches to the elevated, well bunkered greens are anything but. The large, pristine white sand bunkers were designed in true Palmer-style, closely following the natural undulations of the land. The gently rolling terrain is unique for the area. Crescent Pointe Golf Club's elevation changes aren't dramatic but they do provide some subtle, but tricky undulations in the greens that make it hard to find a flat lie.

Not so good for the money
I thought this might be better than a cheap municipal course. Not so sure about that now. The greens were bad. The overall conditions were a little needy.
When I play a new course, I look for good conditions for the money. This did not meet my expectation.
We apologize for the poor condition of the greens and the overall maintenance of the course. We appreciate your feedback and will work to improve the conditions to meet your expectations in the future. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Under repair
Course was nice overall,but was under repair. 18th hole was being redesigned and the hole was on the fairway.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused during your visit due to the ongoing repairs on the course, including the redesign of the 18th hole. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate your feedback.

Overall this is a great course for the price almost all of the greens are in good condition there’s maybe 2-3 that needs little bit of attention but besides that I felt like I got my moneys worth out of this course
Hello Sully, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our course. We apologize for the few greens that may need some attention and appreciate your understanding. We're glad to know that you felt you got your money's worth and we hope to see you again soon.
No coolers, so no water?
The course has a no cooler policy, but does not offer water and there is none on the course. When we checked in we were told the restaurant and snack bar did not open until 10:00. We luckily packed water bottles, but could not buy ice….. When we turned at 10:00 the snack bar was still not open. When I asked for ice, I was met with hesitation but they eventually offered. After a 60 second awkward encounter, they asked what I was going to put the ice in. I eventually was offered a cooler.
The course is also under construction on more than 6 holes and there are two temporary greens.
Thank you for sharing your experience and bringing these concerns to our attention. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of water and the delay in opening the snack bar. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to improve our service in the future.

Great Course - Glad It’s Getting Love
Played here while my family was visiting Hilton head. A little off the island but only 30 minutes from Marriott’s SurfWatch so not bad and the McDonald’s in Bluffton is significantly better than the one in Hilton head so you can at least get breakfast before and not feel like you’re putting the staff out! As for the golf, I had heard that the course had gone downhill, but was recently purchased. It is clear that they are trying to bring it back. It is one of my favorites and really a great layout – challenging holes, different layouts, really a fun course! Two of the greens were temporary, but it looks like number 18 is about ready for prime time. An incredible price at $60 compared to other courses in around Hilton Head and well worth the money. No doubt the price will increase as the course comes back, but I certainly look forward to playing here in the future.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our golf course. We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you enjoyed playing here and found the course to be challenging and fun.

Very nice track they are putting some money and work into it and it shows
Thank you for taking the time to review our business! We appreciate your positive feedback and are glad to hear that our efforts are visible.
Interesting layout but...
The course was priced appropriately. Tee boxes, greens and bunkers need a lot of work. The course layout was nice and we had the course to ourselves. With a little love and attention this could be a nice course.

Better than expected
Based on price and other courses in the area we were not expecting much. We were pleasantly surprised! Fairways all good. 90% of greens were nice. 1 temporary green. Overall I will play this course again soon. Good value.

New Ownership is Stepping Up.
Great all around experience. The fairways were some of the kindest I've played. Some of the greens had rough spots but it was evident that they are working hard to remedy any problems. I appreciated that care was taken to place the pins away from any problem areas that existed. My one complaint is that the cart path crosses a street in the community called "Crescent Plantation." This just is not ok. I don't know how much leverage the course has on this, but efforts should be made to change that street name. I'm white, but it is just wrong to romanticize an experience of subjugation, torture, and oppression to fellow human beings.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, u995610415! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Crescent Pointe Golf Club.
