Crescent Pointe Golf Club

Overall good experience, course was in ok shape for March. Only negative was they sent us out in group of 5. So slow.

Some positives here, but the fairways are the worst I've encountered near Hilton Head. Yes, it's March, and the bermuda grass is still dormant. But it is much thinner and shorter here than any other local course. It's like hitting off bare ground -- hardpan, really. We won't be going back for that reason alone. It's probably fine in the summer, but we're only here in March. The course layout is interesting and varied, liked it, but the ball runs so far on the super-thin fairways that even well-hit shots sometimes end up in a hazard. Several of my shots rolled 30 or 40 yards, sideways, into a hazard -- even though I landed the ball in the middle of the fairway. Makes a difficult course even harder. It was so frustrating, that I ended up putting a very short tee under my ball for 2nd and 3rd shots just to make the course playable for me (20 HCI). On the plus side, I liked the layout (even though it is difficult with many forced carries), greens were mostly in good condition, staff was friendly, and it's a pretty course. But pace of play was very slow, 2-1/2 hours for 9 holes, and there is no ranger. We had GroupGolfer coupons, which made this a very good deal, but even at $40 for 18 holes & cart, we won't be going back anytime in March.

;Overall condition for late March was poor; range and putting green was very poor to start day; then course greens had some winter kill and were very hard; fairways had no overseer and were very tight as a result. Won't go back here for sure until issues cleaned up

Crescent point was the 7th course played in March. The fairways had very little grass, the rough had no grass and the greens were spotty with many having large areas with no grass. While the course layout was interesting, with many memorable holes, the course in desperate need of some TLC. I am told it has been this way for several years. There are many choices where one can play in the area. While the rate was low, I would rather pay $30 more and have a better golfing experience. I won't be back to Crescent Pointe.

course was in great shape and greens were quick great time better than shoveling snow

Stunning yet very challenging layout with many hidden or unexpected traps, ditches, unfavorable rolls and small, nuanced greens - but very fair to accurate play.

Course is in good condition and fun as always, but pace today was a bit slow. With the new cart gps' course should be able to monitor slow play. Always enjoy the Crescent.

Great layout and very friendly staff!!! Brought family out to play.. Gary at club house was very accommodating. Wasnt sure if 13 daughter would even play all nine holes shatrng clubs with my wife. Proshop did not charge full price for her. Most Golf courses are not family friendly anymore. Hilton Head used to be way more familty friendly years ago on off hours. Now most courses do not care and have crazy high jr rates during "off" tee times. Thats why golf is losing popularity amound the youth......especially girls!

My wife and I enjoyed our round today, and will probably play again. Got a good deal on GroupGolfer. First time here, and they didn't pair us up with anyone, so we were on our own to figure out the course. There are quite a few forced carries, and some some hazards are not visible for the tee (or not visible from where you're hitting 2nd or 3rd shot). I lost a lot of balls, even on shots that I hit well, because of the hidden hazards. Will definitely be much more conservative in shot selection next time. NOTE: reviews on GolfPass have improved dramatically in the past 6 - 12 months, so ignore older negative reviews. That said, they do not overseed the fairways, so you are hitting off VERY thin lies for 2nd and 3rd shots. Green speed seemed to vary, and some greens had bare spots - - I would expect better for a club of this standing. Staff was friendly, but there was no ranger. The group ahead of us spent a lot of time searching for lost balls (threesome, half of their tee shots pulled/hooked into the woods), so we waited on virtually every tee. Round took 5 hours. At their skill level, they should have been playing from the green tees instead of the whites. Anyhow -- nice layout, very challenging, not long but requires thoughtful target selection.

Awesome layout, has tonnes of potential with better course conditions (greens and tee boxes were very playable). First time playing CP but by the sounds of it the new ownership is turning the course around. For $50-$60 it’s great value for the Hilton Head area. #2 and #9 are great par 3’s. Would recommend and play again. Clubhouse staff were very friendly.

A great layout with lots of water and expected marsh views typical of the Low Country. A gem in the Palmer portfolio with his easily recognizable architecture . Plenty of room on mostly wide fairways, but challenging approach shots. Dramatic bunkering frames the par 3s. Prepare yourself for challenges on #9 and the sublime of #14. Big par 5s with some forced carries make it fun to grip it and rip it too.
I enjoyed the hospitality, club fare and charming grill afterwards as well.. You will too.
