The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
The tighter, shorter Fazio sister to the Links, a par-70 squeezed onto an unusual parcel with the Intracoastal as its showpiece. Reviewers love the marsh and water scenery and the back-nine stretch along the waterway, while the narrow corridors, small greens and limited practice setup are the consistent caveats.
Consistently praised
- The Intracoastal Waterway stretch on the back nine, one of the most scenic in Charleston.
- Six par 3s and small greens reward precise irons.
Worth knowing
- Very narrow corridors with houses or water everywhere; wayward drivers pay a tax.
Golfers recommend
- Leave the driver in the bag on most holes and play for position.
- Bring extra balls; misses off the fairway are often gone.
