HHI golf and tennis

[MinnieGi]

We are visiting HHI for the first time in August. What are the names of the golf courses that are close to the resort? And if you've played them, how would you rate them?

Also how about the closest tennis courts? I don't think Disney has any on property or at least haven't read they do, do they?

Thanks!

The Palmetto Dunes Plantation is right across the highway from HHI DVC this property is where the Beach House is located. Palmetto Dunes has 3 golf courses. One by Robert Trent Jones, one by George Fazio and one by Arthur Hills. When my brothers and I were there several years ago, we played the Arthur Hills and the Robert Trent Jones courses. We played Arthur Hills the first day and I think my golf swing was still in Minnesota for that round. The course was beautiful, but there was a lot of water. We played the RTJ course the last day. The course had just been reopened after a major renovation. By this time my golf swing had caught up with me and I played much better. We didn't play the Fazio course during our stay. We played a couple of other rounds in the area that were super courses. Played one round at Palmetto Hall Plantation (Robert Cupp course) and one each at Eagle Point and Crescent Point (both off of the Island itself).

We loved all of the courses played and we didn't even scratch the surface of places to play. We decdided not to play Harbor Town because one of my brothers was on a limited budget and we could play 2 rounds elsewhere for the price of Harbor Town. We did go down to Sea pines and had an adult beverage under the light house.

The closest tennis courts would be across the street (Hwy. 278) in Palmetto Dunes. You'll see them on the left before you get to the gate guard. Close enough to ride your bike if you wish. They are nice courts.

If you call the resort, they can send/fax you golf rates (about 6 pages of info). It includes Drive time from the resort to each of the courses they list. The three already mentioned are closest (just a few minutes away) and great courses. The next closest are Indigo Run and Palmetto Hall. Shipyard Golf Club is close, but it may be closed for
