Designed into its natural surroundings, the Hills at Palmetto Dunes is a perfect blend of beauty and challenge. The scenery is outstanding: thick stands of palmettos line the graceful course which is built on a series of rolling dunes. However, off-balance lies and ocean breezes will remind you to keep your eye on the ball. This natural wonder has won many awards . . . and the hearts of many Hilton Head golfers.

If you're looking to test your mettle, you've come to the right place. The infamous Fazio offers a series of long par-4s, beset with bunkers and water hazards - demanding a combination of length and precision play. From the 432-yard 1st hole to the 462-yard 18th, this is regarded by many as the island's truest championship challenge.

Readers of Golfweek Magazine have ranked it among the best in the Southeast. One of the classic works of the legendary designer, the Jones offers well-trapped greens and generous landing areas - with a lagoon system winding its way through 11 of the 18 holes. The signature hole, the par-5 10th, brings you to a spectacular view of the Atlantic . . . one of the few official short courses in the Southeast.
