Course Layout and Challenges
The Arthur Hills Course at Palmetto Dunes is all about accuracy, not just hitting the ball far. You’ll find narrow fairways and tricky lies that challenge every part of your game, especially with the ocean breezes to consider. There are water hazards on ten holes, thanks to a large lagoon system, which makes things more interesting.
Even though there are no fairway bunkers, the course has lots of mounding and slopes that create unique challenges. You’ll face semi-blind tee shots and greens that slope in different directions.
One tough hole is the par-4 12th, where water is on the right and the fairway gets narrower. You need to be very precise here! The par-3 15th hole also tests your skills with its hard pin placements. Overall, this course will definitely make you think and adjust your game!
Signature Holes
The par-4 12th and 17th holes stand out as signature gems. The 12th, flanked by water, narrows as you approach the green, making it a memorable test of skill. The dogleg par-4 17th, with its pencil-thin landing area, rewards strategic shot-making and is among Hilton Head’s finest. The historic Hilton Head Range Light Station, visible on the course, adds a unique cultural touch.
Facilities
The clubhouse features Arthur Hills Grill, where you can enjoy Southern-style food. There’s a complete practice area that includes a driving range, a short game section, and a putting green to help players get ready for their game.
