The tips out here are a challenge especially if you do not drive it 280 which most times I do not. But it's fun. Greens were quick. Back side is beautiful! Played here lots and will play lots more. The gentleman working the front is so nice! Could not ask for a better golf getaway. And I do mean getaway. This is golf and nature. No outside noise!

WOW! WHAT A GOLF COURSE! Decided upon arrival to play the championship tee boxes. Staff was kind enough to explain the challenge it would be and that the championship boxes were seldom used. Was just hoping to break 90. Make a few pars but basically play for bogeys on lots of holes as several of the holes would be a challenge just carrying it to the fairway. #1 was playing 494.......it's a PAR 4! Both 10 and 18 were in the the 460 range. It's definitely a challenge hitting approach shots with a fairway metal instead of short irons or wedges when playing from blue boxes. Had 4 straight one putts from 15 -18. Only 18 was a birdie putt. Hit a 234 yard cut from right of fairway with a 3 wood to about 15 feet. Only other birdie was on 3. Shot 39,39. No way I should have shot sub 80. 5 days before this round I had a 76 at another course with my first ace from 176 with a 7 iron and that was my best round EVER! UNTIL THIS ROUND. I will remember every shot and every club used on this round and to top it off, I have the entire round on video as I brought my GOPRO along. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!

FIRST ACE IN ABOUT 13 YEARS OF PLAYING. #5 FROM 176. USING MIZUNO HOT METAL JPX 921 AND A SRIXON Z STAR BALL. LOVE THIS COURSE FOREVER!!!!!!

Fantastic golf course. But please invest in new carts. They barely make it through 18 holes. Replayed 9 and cart died on #3. Clubhouse would not answer phone. Have had this happen 3 times before. The back side is no fun lugging a tour bag around. Today I was lucky as one of the cart guys was coming around to collect the flags. For between 60$ and 90$ should not be el cheapo on the carts. Gps would be nice also. Should be customary for such a pricey course. Brookstone and Pinelake has gps. They are not on the level Walker is. Step up your cart game Clemson. Get Dabo to write a check.

Minor delay starting due to groundscrew taking a little longer to do maintenance on the course, no biggie. Played from white tees. Made club selection a little tricky because of doglegs and downhills that could run out to hazards. Greens, fairways, and rough were in good shape. Greens do not have lots of slope which helped in shooting 79 since I'm a pretty terrible putter. Cart paths are a little beat up but who cares really. Just pointing it out. Hot dogs are just delicious. Homemade chilli. Well worth the 3:50. Will add this track to my weekly golfnow hot deal search.

By far the most difficult course I've played. Lots of bendy undulation. Greens are perfect! But so so small. Smallest greens I've ever seen. Needed to play with a member to get guidance of layouts. Front side is so difficult. Back side eases just because you can see your targets. You will know if you miss in the wrong place or you pull the wrong club. White o\b stakes can get ya too so be aware. Par 3 on the front that plays 240 if the flag is in the front, 252 middle and about 270 back. Big boy par 3. Not sure the yardage from the up tees but this was a difficult track from the back.

Course is always fantastic! Bonus replay only cost 10$ per 9. Practice facilities are best in the area by far. #18 is playing as a temporary par 3 because they are having to shorten it due to a new clubhouse\ business center. Once completed it will go back to playing a risk\reward par 4. Our 4 some all parred #9. That's unheard of playing from tips as it's in the 460 yard range with trouble everywhere including false front that feeds anyball short of green 10 yards down embankment to a pond.

Greens were fantastic. Smooth, quick and receptive to good shots. The fringe areas were nice also. The views of the mountains on some holes make it more than worth it to play. The fairways need some work as well as several tee boxes. And lots of areas off the fairways need a lot of work. Bunkers look nice. Fortunately I was not in a single one but they all looked fluffy and very much playable. Black tee boxes make several holes quite the challenge. In a good way. Need a practice area to warm up. Hitting into a net is no bueno.

Course was ok. Greens a little beat up. But #5 was beautiful. So beautiful in fact that this here guy Zachary Timms aced it from 176 with a Mizuno 923 hot metal 7 iron using a srixon z star #2.

Even on a rainy cold day they still sent out the beverage and snack cart. Good for golfers, not so much for the attendant. Beautiful golf course. Still wish they'd make #9 a par 5 and convert 5 into a par 4. Make the front play a little easier.

Finn scooters are a must. Absolutely fun time playing golf. Even the bad shots didn't seem to matter as much. They need to maybe buy more of them and more carts also. About a 20 minute delay waiting on carts. It was a nice day after some pretty terrible weather so understanding that the course was packed.

Posted several reviews. Only negative thing about this course is difficulty of #9. If I could afford the initiation fee I'd bid all other courses farewell and play this course exclusively. It is that nice! Thanks Clemson for the only thing I like about the word Clemson. GO GAMECOCKS!

Brookstone is in as good a shape as I have seen it. Greens are rolling good. Not bumpy. Lots of fluffy sand in bunkers. And the new guy working in clubhouse a really nice guy. Chatted with him about 20 minutes waiting out a rainstorm.

Thanks Chip for the awesome round. Good 94 from tips. Awesome 81 for me!!!! Best score so far from tips. Clubhouse worked effortlessly to resolve issue with online booking. Greens rolled true as always. I don't think my ball hit a bump the entire round. 2 chip in's. Always good to have 0 putts. Only double was on 18. Found water, missed 4 footer for bogey.

Course was fantastic. Normally, I do not mind being paired up especially when I play solo but today they paired me with a mom and her two sons. Pretty sure they'd have much rather enjoyed the time together without a stranger. This is the first negative thing I've had to say about this course.

Play this course every chance I get. Tips are quite challenging, especially the par 3's and par on 9 gains a stroke on the field. Shot 85 from tips today.

Course seems to be better every time I play it. Only one course in the area that matches this course that being Cateechee. I will continue to play here every chance I get. We're it not for the steep initiation fee I think I'd become a member.
