The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes
About
The Golf Club at Hilton Head Lakes is a Tom Fazio design that is challenging, but with five sets of tees it is versatile enough for players of all skill levels. Fazio deftly utilized the native wetlands and numerous lakes that are interspersed across the landscape, incorporating them along the expansive fairways and angled greens. The tricky greens have been carefully molded and contoured to offer a variety of pin placements. In addition to the water hazards, there are also numerous strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout. The golf course will test your shot-making skills as well as your creativity. To complement the golf course, Hilton Head Lakes offers an equally impressive 36-acre, double-ended practice facility with target greens, bunkers, multiple practice greens, and even a par-3 short course.

Dreadful greens, otherwise okay for the price
Greens were dreadful, otherwise course okay. Got a hot deal on Golf Now so value fine, so expectations not high
Hilton Head Lakes
Call before you book! The greens have been infested with a disease and were terrible. Overall course layout is nice, but don’t spend the money until the greens come back in.

Unfortunately greens were not good
Our round at HH Lakes was a disappointment. We have always enjoyed the course previously but the greens were virtually unputtable. It’s very sad to see the course slip into such bad condition. They reduced the greens fees but it still was not enough to make up for greens where every 5 foot putt was an adventure won’t return anytime soon.

Greens unplayable
Grass on greens was patchy. Putting was impossible.

Terrible greens and tee boxes
The tee boxes and greens were overgrown. The greens were unputtable. They shouldn’t be open to the public. No clubhouse facilities, none.

Disappointing and unpleasant
Positives:
Less than 5 minutes from i95 in Bluffton with public access. GPS will try to take you through gated community, but the road signs take you right to the course.
A cart was brought to me and two of the three others in my group in the parking lot and the gentleman offered to load my bag; I politely declined. We had three carts total which really helped keep pace.
The tee time came with unlimited range balls; $12 value, and the range was in good shape but it needed more driving bays.
The golf course staff were incredibly nice and helpful. The fourth in our group was late and Charlie picked him up in the parking lot and brought him out to us on the course; I offered to delay our tee time, before going out, but the course was busy.
One staff member even cleaned our clubs while we were finishing up on 18.
Negatives:
The greens are in terrible shape. The course would’ve been very enjoyable; the layout is great, but you cannot putt. Weeds on every green. The starter did warn us before going to the first tee, but I would not have booked the round had I known prior.
The clubhouse staff was very rude. The woman working the desk that morning was dismissive and unhelpful. When the fourth in my group showed she reminded him that he was 30 minutes late and that we started without him. Luckily Charlie found him, asked if he was with our group, and brought him to us. When I asked about drinks, food, beverage cart, etc. she said you’re out of luck if you didn’t bring your own. Luckily I brought a water bottle to refill on the course. She said the restaurant/bar there opened at noon; it was 0950, and there was no beverage cart.. So, we made plans to eat there after our round. When we finished and came back to the clubhouse the man working the clubhouse said it didn’t open on Sundays. I reminded him that the woman this morning said it opened at noon. He said well I guess it’s not opening today; it was around 2 pm. Luckily we found a place nearby, without his help.
Overall:
As it states in the title, disappointing and unpleasant. It was all our first and last time to this course and I would not recommend it to anyone that asks.

Nice course
While the course is nice and somewhat newer, the greens were terribly affected with poa annua which took away from the experience. The pro shop gave us a discount to play where we paid $50. Apart from that, the course has a nice design, pretty wide open with some challenging holes. Not many people on the course likely due to the problems with the green which is a shame. For people staying on HHI, the 45 minute drive may not be worth it until they get their greens sorted. If I go back, I would play the course again as I did enjoy the course from tee box to approaching the greens. Hopefully they can get the poa annua under control sooner rather than later, at this time I would not recommend to play

lack of transparency re conditions
greens were absolutely terrible; option should have been given for refund; fairways not much better; layout is decent but this course is way overpriced given the conditions; local munis I've played over the years are far better

Greens full of weeds
As a first timer at this course I would like compliment the staff ,
they were very friendly and helpful.
I would have probably given this course five stars but the greens were in such poor condition it was impossible to putt accurately.

Good staff but greens are unputtable
Played a good round with the ranger pairing me with another single and a pair to keep tee times going. Very nice staff.
The course layout is fun with the back 9 better than the front 9.
The greens are in very bad shape with weeds turning them into a bumpy wasteland. Anything on the green should be a two putt gimme. It is like playing pachinko. No point lining up for a break when the ball hops ALL over the place.
I will be back in 6 months to see if they get the greens back under control.

Needs TLC
Staff was great. Greens were in terrible shape. Nice layout
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
course has extremely wide fairways. The greens are in absolutely terrible condition. Almost non puttable. May be due to time of year but other courses we played in the area did not have the same problem.

Waste of money
Fairways were okay, however the greens of EVERY HOLE were unusable. Weeds were so bad on the greens that your ball would only roll 6 inches without bouncing in the air. It's sad honestly, it's a beautiful course. For 75 bucks it's a rip off at the moment, you may as well play your local discount course if you actually want to keep score.

Worst green’s ever
I can honestly say that the greens were the worst that I have ever experienced.. such a mess. They should be ashamed asking for that kind of money, when the conditions are so poor.. save your money!

3/12/2023 round
Greens are horrific, basically unplayable due to the infestation of poa grass. I have this course many times over the years. This is by far the worst I have ever seen it. See attached photo.
