Lion’s Paw Golf Links is located inside the Ocean Ridge Plantation development in Ocean Isle, North Carolina. It is one of the noted “BIG CATS” courses. Lion’s Paw opened in 1991, and some consider it as renowned golf course architect Willard Byrd’s, finest design.
Lion’s Paw is an open, hilly course that winds its way through natural water hazards and strategic bunkering. Water is in play on all but four holes. The lush fairways lead to beautiful multi-tiered MiniVerde Bermuda greens. Beautiful natural wetlands surround the course which gives golfers a chance for outstanding Myrtle Beach golf photo opportunities.
