Golf Courses of Hilton Head

Hilton Head Island is home to more than 20 world-class golf courses, and the course you play often determines the community you live in. Each Hilton Head golf community structures access differently — equity memberships, social memberships, bundled HOA access, or resort play — and those distinctions directly affect your lifestyle and your investment. The articles below break down each golf course individually: what it plays like, how membership works, and what to know before buying a home there. John Campbell is a 7th-generation Hilton Head native who helps buyers understand which golf community is the right fit.
