In the Hilton Head area, Old South Golf Links is regarded as a favorite year after year by local residents and visitors alike. Since the Clyde Johnstons designed course opened, golfers continue to be attracted to the natural beauty of lowcountry golf that Old South provides. Just over the bridge from Hilton Head Island, vacationers regularly make the short trip to Bluffton to play golf amid towering oaks and rolling terrain while soaking in magnificent views from the island greens abutting the intracoastal marshes of McKays Creek. Golfers are often greeted by the abundant wildlife from wood storks to soaring hawks and grazing deer to lagoons inhabited by alligators.
