Obviously, the word is already out on this course as I doubt there were more than 30 people on the entire course.we played 18 holes in less than three hours.South Carolina ( / ˌ k ær ə ˈ l aɪ n ə/ ( listen)) is a state in the coastal Southeastern region of the United States.

All in all a disappointing visit.even at reduced fees. Surprisingly, the fairways were beautiful.remains from the courses past beauty. We were concerned driving our cart over several bridges, due to loose and broken boards.there was actually a hole in one bridge that was partially covered with a piece of old plywood. Tees had little grass and were not level. Don't think a putt over four feet was made. Rough is long, which is fine, but it gets old chipping back onto every green from it.and again not being able to stop the ball. They would not hold a shot, no matter if it was a high wedge or run up.everything ran over the greens. Got on the course and found little to no grass and very hard and CRUSTY surfaces. We were told at the club house.after paying our $49 fees, that the greens were in "transition" from winter overseed. What a disappointment, greens were horrible. Hadn't played this course in several years, but returned because of past good memories.
