Golf Hilton Head, SC
Robber's Row Course
Port Royal Plantation
Robber's Row, a traditional favorite, has recently undergone
a major renovation under the direction of renowned golf course
architect, Pete Dye. Throughout the front nine,
a total of 43 bunkers were either added, moved or reshaped.
The second hole has been lengthened to a par-5 and the 10th hole
has been shortened to a par-4, changing the par from 35-37 to 36-36.
The eighth hole is now a dynamic 171-yard par-3 through the addition
of a lake that guards the front and left sides of the
hole and a pot bunker to the left side of the green.
Number 9, a beautiful par-4 over water may be one of the best holes on the
island. The course is one of the original 18-hole layouts built in the early
1950's at Port Royal.
Robber's Row is located on the marsh side of Port Royal Resort,
atop what were once Civil War grounds and the historic
town of Port Royal, winding through beautiful
Magnolia and Live Oak trees. In fact, one of the truly unique aspects
is that each golfer gets a brief history lesson on each hole.
Although tee-shot landing areas are generous, approach shots
require accuracy to the well-bunkered, undulating greens.
