Hilton Head, SC (Oct. 29, 2025) - With this month’s official opening of its North Course, Moss Creek Hilton Head now offers two outstanding and very different 18-hole golf experiences. Along with George Fazio’s South Course, opened 51 years ago, club members are now able to enjoy the renovated North Course, originally designed by Tom Fazio.
Noted architect, John Fought, a former PGA TOUR player and 1977 U.S. Amateur Champion, rebuilt or modified all tees and greens to USGA specifications, adding new TifEagle on greens, Zoysia on shaded tees, and Celebration Bermuda throughout.
A new irrigation system and drainage were installed during the eight-month, multi-million-dollar project. Additionally, eight bunkers were removed and three added for strategic and aesthetic value. Approximately 214 yards were added to the total layout, which now stretches to 6,722 yards from the back tees.
“The renovation project of the North Course at Moss Creek honors the Fazio design legacy while also ensuring this wonderful property was utilized to the maximum,” said Fought. “The North Course offers members an all-new experience. The widened fairways may be deceiving, but strategic decisions must be made to score well.”
Fought’s notable work includes the Championship Course at Sand Hollow Resort, cited by Golf Digest as the best course in Utah; two courses at The Gallery in Arizona, former venue for the WGC Accenture Match Play; Crosswater at Sunriver Resort in Oregon; Indian Wells Resort courses, and the South and North courses at Windsong Farm in Minnesota.
Duininck Construction of Minnesota and GTI Irrigation of Florida partnered with the Moss Creek team to ensure every element stayed true to Moss Creek's original design while elevating its future.
“We can take pride knowing this project was done the right way. By investing in every detail, from the greens to the surrounding areas, drainage, and irrigation, we avoided shortcuts that could cause long-term problems. Moss Creek members are set to enjoy the benefits of this work for decades,” said Scott Julien, General Manager and COO.
Moss Creek is a 1,042-acre private Audubon Certified residential golf community, located just off Hilton Head Island, with abundant amenities. Its’ roughly 1,800 resident families enjoy the two 18-hole golf courses, as well as a marina, fitness center, spacious clubhouse, equestrian facilities, and miles of walking paths.
