Greens need work
Its early in the season but these greens are in winter condition at best. Nice layout though.
Just OK
Have played here other years. Greens definitely need more care. Grass is almost a grey colour and seemed almost dead. Ball rolled well though. Staff was friendly. Not as nice as other courses in the area, but price is right,, so it's a case of "pay more, get more". So if you just want to come out with some friends and have a pleasant few hours, then it's great value. But if your looking for a championship course, look elsewhere.
Hit hard by hurricane
Greens looked really bad, however they rolled pretty true and held the ball onshots. A couple of greens were pretty crusty but overall I enjoyed the course as a warm up.
Great layout, greens as reported are spotty with virtually no grass. Still a good March play.
Greens need work
My only issue with course conditions was that most of the greens had a lot of crusty areas - matted down or missing grass.
It’s ok
Layout is good but the greens are in terrible shape. It was disappointing cause I us d to love playing there.
Nice layout, reasonable price (golfnow.com). Course needs marshals, slow round 5 hours. Backshop has this dangerous practice of jumping on the back of the cart to go to the parking lot. Carts have warning signs not to do this, but they are ignored.

course in rough shape
Not among our favorites in the area but got a reasonable price. However we were disappointed in the overall condition, especially the greens.
Best Deal in Bluffton
I am a local so I play many courses in Bluffton. This course is in great shape considering the weather here this winter has been wet and cold. Greens were fast but in great shape. Fairway was dry 85% of the course. This is the best value around. All courses in Bluffton are in the same shape but cost more. Will play again soon.
Likable Layout
I enjoyed the layout however the course was a bit rough (early season). The greens were a bit bumpy. All told I would play it again.and we got a Hot Deal thru Golf Now which made us happy.
Island West
Greens and bunkers were in less than average condition. That being said I do enjoy the layout and it is a family friendly layout because it does not have much forced carry. I will play it again, just hope they can take care of the greens and bunkers.
Good Course for fun
This course is good for the price cant complain its great to get out and have fun or if you are more serious and are working on your game you can do it in relative privacy staff is friendly. I would recommend.
Decent Course, Bad Golfer
For the time of year the course was in excellent condition.
The Fuzzy Zoeller designed layout was extremely challenging due to narrow fairways, water in just the wrong (for my game) places and unnervingly fast greens - we didn't get a straight putt the whole round.
After feeling good coming off the drving range I had one of the worst rounds in a long time due to the unnervingly fast greens, bad hits and judgement.
Would love to play again.
Nice course for the off-season .
We stayed in HH on our way to FL. Found the discounted round ,booked it and enjoyed the course and the weather .
play this course every year
Affordable nice course. Was the first out and played in 2 1/2 hours.
Friendly staff...greens rolled well
Really enjoyed our day. Know second time around would do better. Some challenging holes.
Not bad for the money
Course conditions were average. Many greens needed some attention. Pace of play was great.
