The Heritage Collection on Hilton Head Island
The Heritage Collection on Hilton Head Island includes a trio of island stalwarts - Port Royal, Shipyard and Oyster Reef Golf Clubs. Shipyard Plantation offers 27 holes designed by George Cobb and Willard Byrd that can be played in a trio of 18-hole combinations. Each nine-holer - Galleon, Brigantine and Clipper - can be played in any combination and are adorned by some sporty practice facilities.
Port Royal Resort - home to the original landing site of William Hilton, the explorer for whom the island is named - offers a trio of distinctly different 18-hole golf courses. Robbers Row, Barony, and Planter's Row. Robber's Row was designed in 1967 by Cobb and Byrd, and was redesigned in 1994 by Pete Dye. Located on the scenic marsh side of the Port Royal Plantation atop former Civil War grounds and featuring historical markers throughout, the layout winds through beautiful strands of magnolia and live oaks. The Barony Course opened in 1963 and was one of Hilton Head's first courses. From the tee box, many of the holes appear to be relatively open, but as golfers approach the recently resurfaced Bermuda greens, the challenge becomes clear.
Oyster Reef Golf Club opened in 1983 in Hilton Head Plantation on the north end of the island and was immediately lauded as one of the country's best new resort courses. Carved out of 190 acres of breathtaking Lowcountry terrain, Oyster Reef is home to one of the most spectacular golf holes on the entire island - the par-3 sixth hole plays 192 yards from the championship tees to a green that is set against the backdrop of the beautiful Port Royal Sound. Winding lagoons, lush vegetation and scenic views of the island surround Oyster Reef's spectacular layout.
The 'Spring 'Fore' 2020" package for a spring or fall 2020 golf trip can be secured with $100 down per person. Pricing starts at $525 per golfer, includes four nights' accommodations. Pricing based on minimum of quad (4) occupancy per person. Price per person includes all taxes, resort fees, unlimited golf, cart fees and warm-up range.
