Origins

Golden Bear was developed as the golf course for the Indigo Run community on Hilton Head Island and opened in 1992.

Design Philosophy

Nicklaus routed the course through the existing Lowcountry setting, using trees, bunkering and changes of direction to place an emphasis on position and approach angles rather than relying only on length.

Today

Golden Bear operates as part of the Invited club network and remains the golf centerpiece of Indigo Run.
