golf is more than a game. It’s also a sightseeing excursion.
Enhancing nature’s abundance, the Bald Head Island Club’s
18-hole championship golf course winds its way over dunes, around
lagoons, along the ocean, and through a maritime forest. Designer
George Cobb, who for 20 years was the lead consultant at Augusta
National, left much of the terrain the way he found it, creating
a course of almost unparalleled wild beauty. Many of the holes are
so undisturbed, in fact, they are bordered by the still lively natural
habitats of herons, egrets, ibises, foxes and alligators.
Awarded a coveted 4.5 stars from Golf Digest’s Places
to Play, the Bald Head Island Club Course has a slope rating
of 139 and course rating of 74.3, putting it in the top 20 percent
of courses in difficulty. Weekend warriors need not be discouraged,
though. The Bald Head Island Club Course is known to play on several
levels, and average golfers find it very playable from the forward
tees.
