LOCATION AND PRICES

This Nicklaus-designed golf course has quickly earned a name for itself as one of the top-rated layouts on an island of top-flight designs. Ever-present water and sand keep play interesting, but never penalizing...golfers will find the course puts a premium on strategy and finesse, rather than sheer power. Opened in 1992, the Golden Bear Golf Club is an excellent example of Hilton Head golf. Created on a fairly flat terrain, with little natural mounding, the Nicklaus Architectural group relied primarily on ponds, marsh and forest to carve a challenging, yet fair test of golf.

Lodging: The Westin Hotel located on the Atlantic Ocean in Port Royal Plantation

Nestled amid lush landscaping along a pristine stretch of white-sand beach, The Westin Resort Hilton Head Island provides guests with AAA Four-Diamond quality and service in an elegant seaside setting.
