Overview
A par-70 layout with a slope and rating of 74/145 from the back tees, the George Fazio course at Palmetto Dunes Resort is a tough test. That said, it is a slicer-friendly track, with much of the out-of-bounds and serious trouble off the tee coming on the left side, away from a typical slicer’s miss. Unlike the sibling Arthur Hills layout at the Hilton Head Island resort, which has very few fairway bunkers, there are many large bunkers in play off the tee on the Fazio, though with shallow lips, they aren’t too penal. Still, encroaching trees, angled water hazards and a variety of tricky green shapes make the Fazio arguably the most challenging of the three courses at Palmetto Dunes Resort.

“Very wide open course. In descent condition. Greens a little slow with a lot of tree lined fairways. The best of the two resort courses. One big negative is it doesn’t have a driving range, but try it if you’re on the island."

“Definitely worth a round if in the area. Extremely challenging course for the back tees with quality holes scattered throughout the design. Water, bunkers and ground undulations all come into play."

“It is an okay resort course which is plenty of width and can be enjoyable for all level of players. If cost is a factor I would not pay a premium dollar to play it."

“A fun course with the most scenic bunkers you will ever see. Near-perfect greens and overall great conditions. Hard par-3's. There is OB on the left every hole but none on the right--built for slicers. Four sets of tees allow for every skill level. A little pricey, but great golf."
