Hilton Head Island, SC | Nestled at the gateway to Hilton Head Island, Moss Creek Golf Club offers an unparalleled Lowcountry experience. Just beyond our entrance, the pristine beaches of Hilton Head beckon, while the charm of historic Bluffton lies moments away. A short drive leads to I-95, connecting you to the vibrant culture of Savannah to the south and the timeless beauty of Charleston to the north. Surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and rich Southern heritage, Moss Creek is more than just a club—it’s a gateway to coastal living at its finest.
No matter which of our championship, Fazio-designed courses – Devil’s Elbow South or Devil’s Elbow North – it’s in the details, and the immaculate and immediate attention our professional crews pay to each and every one of them, that combine to create an unparalleled Lowcountry private golf lifestyle experience. Perfected practice facilities, a professionally staffed and fully-equipped Golf Shop, and member tournament events are a matter of course when you live and play in Moss Creek.
The Heart of it All
The centerpiece and the heart of the Moss Creek lifestyle is the Clubhouse. Although we love to plan and execute perfectly exquisite weddings, banquets, birthday parties, and other member events, our Clubhouse is not just for special occasions. We really live here. We meet here. We eat here. We play here. Sometimes we dress up and go in style, dining formally with family and friends, and sometimes we kick back and go casual, meeting for lunch in the Grill after a round of golf or a game of tennis, or for cocktails and cards outside on the Verandah. The Clubhouse is a special place, at the center, the heart of it all.
