Be ready to use all your clubs

Really enjoyed the layout of this course. Tight in some spots and mentally challenging. Shot selection is important. Greens had been aerated weeks ago and were still not all the way back, but we were given a maintenance discount off the regular rate. Most fairways were in good condition as were tee boxes. Beautiful scenery all the way around. Very surprised that we were the only ones on the course in the late afternoon.

Needs a lot of maintenance

Could not believe a Hilton Head course could be in such poor condition. Fairways were full of crabgrass and in many places no grass. Greens had been aerated weeks before but were still not playable. Tee boxes were worse than you would find on a muni course. (Sorry about that, I should be more respectful to the many fine muni courses out there.) What a shame for such a good RT Jones course to have fallen to this level. Play the Arthur Hill course instead. Much better condition.

Nice layout

Pleasant Surprise

Very pleasantly surprised to find such a nice golf course and community a little off the beaten path. Easy to get to though. Beautiful clubhouse. Fabulous bent grass greens. Such a joy to be able to putt consistently compared to all the mini-verde you have to play on nowadays. Cart paths were exceptional. Hole layout and distances were well marked. Most holes are rolling and fairly open but a few tight shots here and there. Will definitely come back again.

Most fun ever

This course is fantastic it is the most fun I have ever had playing a round of golf the course is not gimmicky it is actually quite fair. Dramatic views and changes in elevation Bent grass greens were in good condition and much larger than expected. Will definitely return. This will be my top recommendation for out-of-state visitors.

Great value using GolfNow.

Pretty challenging course with a LOT of elevation changes and blind shots. Fairways have landing areas that must be hit or else trouble lies will result. Most greens relatively flat and in good condition. Some nice vistas overlooking the Ohio river on the front nine. Got a great GolfNow rate on a Wednesday afternoon. Not too crowded.

Good example of a Sand Hills course

Nice layout with some significant elevation changes. Wasn't crowded at all on a Saturday afternoon in June. Clubhouse was nice and staff was friendly.
