The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
The area’s standout Arnold Palmer design, a big Lowcountry layout with marsh, moss-draped oaks and water on most of the back nine. Reviews praise the look and the test, with the harder back nine and forced carries cited as the defining challenge.
Consistently praised
- Classic Lowcountry scenery, Wando River views and live oaks framing most holes.
- A strategic Palmer routing that rewards thoughtful positioning over raw distance.
Worth knowing
- Conditioning reviews swing widely; fairways and bunkers don’t always match the design.
Golfers recommend
- Pick a tee that respects the carries; the back nine punishes overreach.
- Bring extra balls; water and marsh are in play on the majority of the round.
