Featured Hilton Head Golf Course Stories

Whether the plan is to make memories on the links, the courts, the water or the beach, there is, in fact, no better time of year to visit Hilton Head Island than the fall and winter months. It’s an experience, however, that is only fully optimized by a stay at the Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, where golf is the most important thing, but by no means the only thing.

Heritage Golf Group recently announced that Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club has commenced the project of building a short game practice area. Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club is part of The Heritage Collection on Hilton Head Island and features 54 holes of legendary golf nestled within one of Hilton Head Island's most pristine plantations along the Atlantic coastline.

The project, which began on Aug. 3, 2009, was designed by PGA Tour Design Services, Inc. Upon the estimated completion date of Nov. 15, 2009, Port Royal Golf & Racquet Club will have a state-of-the-art facility designed for virtually any type of short game practice. The project is part of Heritage Golf Group's on-going effort to improve the golfer's experience and provide unrivaled golf and uncompromising service. 

The Arthur Hills Golf Course at Palmetto Dunes is two-thirds of the way to winning the National Golf Course Owner's Association National Course of the Year Award.

The Hills Course was recently named as the South Carolina Golf Course of the Year by the South Carolina Golf Course Owner's Association which cited the layout's exceptional course quality, management team, contributions to the community and contribution to the game of golf as reasons for its receipt of this prestigious honor.
