Harbour Town Green Fees: How Much It Costs To Play RBC Heritage Venue
We explore the options for playing the RBC Heritage course in South Carolina - and how much it costs


Harbour Town, which hosts the PGA Tour’s RBC Heritage, is often considered designer Peter Dye's crowning glory.
That's some claim when Dye was also responsible for the iconic TPC Sawgrass, which is the permanent home of the PGA Tour's flagship event The Players Championship. However, there is indeed much to admire about the course, particularly for those who rely on guile.
Harbour Town is one of the most loved courses on the PGA Tour and is considered one of the best golf courses in the Carolinas. Its famous 18th hole makes it one of the most recognizable on the circuit, too. But can you play it?
The simple answer is "yes," but not between May 5th and November 10th 2025, as the course is closing for a resotration.
Of the best ways to experience a round there is by booking a stay at Sea Pines Resort. There are several packages, including the Villa Golf package and the Inn Golf package.
The Villa Golf package includes a three-night stay with rounds at Harbour Town and the resort’s other courses, Heron Point and Atlantic Dunes, with replay rates of $75. The Inn Golf package includes a stay at the four-star The Inn & Club with a round on each course over four days. Those interested are asked to call to make a booking.
You can also play a round without staying at the resort. Once the course reopens in November, green fees for Harbour Town will range between around $450 and $518 until the end of the year.

Sea Pines property owners and their guests can also take advantage of golf packages, with options for 20 rounds a year, costing $2,936, 40 rounds, which costs $5,419 and 60 rounds for $7,466.
Another way to play any of the resort’s courses is to become a member. However, with initiation fees reportedly between $25,000 and $50,000, and annual dues between $10,000 and $15,000, that will be out of reach for most.

So, what can players expect of that course? Well, it's a par-71 7,191-yard layout with narrow fairways and overhanging trees, including oaks and pines. That means it requires strategic tee shots and lay-ups to, while plenty of water, bunkers and small greens further reduce the margin for error.
Two of the most challenging holes are saved for last, thanks to the wind that frequently blows in from the Calibogue Sound channel. On the 18th, shots can even be played off the sand on the channel's banks at low tide. The final hole is guarded by the sound on the left, while ahead is the famous red-and-white striped lighthouse as players approach the green.
It's a hit with pros too, including first round leader of the 2025 RBC Heritage, Justin Thomas, who said: "I love it. I wish we played more places like it. I think more architects should design places like this. It kind of stands of test of time, I think. Especially if we continue to get weather like this and if these fairways get firm, the greens are already getting firm, it's going to be everything we want by the end of the week.
"I just think it's a really, really cool place that requires you to think on every single shot you're hitting, and you can't get lazy."

Overall, the course is both challenging and picturesque, making it one of the most memorable on the PGA Tour.
