Bear Creek

The Course

Architect: Rees Jones and Bryce Swanson
Built: 1980

Bear Creek Golf Club is a semi-private, open to the public course that seamlessly weaves through a picturesque landscape adorned with majestic pine trees and shimmering blue lagoons. Rees Jones’ commitment to preserving the natural beauty earned Bear Creek Golf Club a coveted Audubon certification. Bear Creek is celebrated for its immaculately maintained greens, featuring the state- of-the-art Super Dwarf TifEagle Bermuda grass specially designed to thrive in the unique Low-country climate and water conditions. One of Bear Creek’s signature moments unfolds on the final hole, where players must navigate a narrow passage through the pines to reach a green bordered by a substantial lagoon. Over the past 34 years, Bear Creek’s Super Dwarf TifEagle greens have garnered a well-deserved reputation as some of the finest greens on Hilton Head Island. Bear Creek is also one of the few courses in the area where ditching the golf cart and walking the course is fairly easy.
