The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
Davis Love III’s reimagining of the island’s original Ocean Course, with coastal dunes, coquina shell waste areas, and one of only two ocean-view holes on Hilton Head at the par-3 15th. Most golfers see it as more spacious and playable than the old layout.
Consistently praised
- The ocean-view par-3 15th, one of only two seaside holes on the island.
- Coastal dunes and shell waste areas give it a distinct look among the resort courses.
Worth knowing
- Opinions split; some still find fairways narrow and the course demanding, and despite the name only one hole truly touches the ocean.
Golfers recommend
- Save room mentally for the 15th; it is the photo and the highlight.
- A good middle ground at the resort, more forgiving than Harbour Town for many players.
