Arthur Hills - Palmetto Dunes
The Arthur Hills Course at Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort is a harmonious blend of natural beauty and strategic design, making it a standout choice for golfers visiting Hilton Head Island. Opened in 1986, this course takes full advantage of the Lowcountry landscape, featuring rolling dunes, dense forests, and winding lagoons that create both a serene atmosphere and a strategic challenge.
Arthur Hills crafted this layout to reward precision and thoughtful shot selection, with narrow fairways, well-placed bunkers, and contoured greens requiring careful navigation. A signature aspect of the course is its incorporation of natural elevation changes, a rare feature on Hilton Head, adding an extra dimension to the playing experience.
The par-3 17th is a highlight, with a demanding tee shot over water to a well-protected green framed by lush vegetation. Meanwhile, the par-5 10th challenges players with strategic bunkering and risk-reward opportunities that reflect Hills’s design philosophy.
Known for its engaging layout and natural charm, the Arthur Hills Course delivers a rewarding round for golfers of all skill levels. Its blend of beauty, strategy, and playability makes it a must-play destination for those seeking an authentic Lowcountry golf experience.
