Charleston National Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Marshland and natural lagoons make Charleston National a real gem to play. Architect Rees Jones and Greg Muirhead strategically placed wooden bridges over the natural areas which sometimes range from tee to green. Once tree laden, it's now a little more open, which may be to your advantage. A trip to Charleston National should be considered by any serious golfer visiting the Charleston area.

Worth playing just for the SPECTACULAR marsh views!
The course has both challenging holes over water and marsh as well as open rolling ones. It includes some of the most beautiful marsh views that I have seen on a golf course.
Lot of great natural marsh features
Always enjoy playing this course. The marsh and wetlands play well in the course design. Greens are always in great shape all year round
This course has an excellent backdrop and a beautiful layout.
This was one of the most beautiful golf courses I have ever played. My family and I went down to South Carolina for a quick Christmas getaway and this Golf Course sure does rank highly on my top golf course list. From the par 3's that are a force carry over water or the bridges over the marshes, the alligators and the beautiful inter-coastal view. The Greens are perfect and roll about 10 on the Stimp meter. Challenging course and if you play a long ball, you are able to reach the par 5's in two. The course also requires extremely accurate shots and favors the player who is a shot maker rather than a ball striker . I really liked this course and I think my favorite hole is the par 3 18, and challenging par 4 ,15.
Course is real challenging
Course was exactly how I though it would be very challenging good views in very good shape for December will play again soon even had two deer join us on the 18th tee box to finish the round great time
Great greens rolled true.
We booked our tee time a few days in advance and had no problems getting an early time. When we arrived we were greeted by a staff member and check in was great. We arrived at the first tee a little before our tee time and the starter got us right out after some brief instructions. The course was in good shape and the greens were fantastic. The course was straight forward until you got to number 15 & 16 which were a little tricked up for my taste. The course finished strong and we were very pleased over all. We would definitely play here again when visiting Charleston.
The course is in a great location.
The greens were in excellent condition, but they are much slower than most of the greens around this area. I also live how the course is spread out and you get to see so much of the area. Finally, the course has some challenging holes but the views are great and we had a great time out here.
Well maintained, fun and very challenging
This is an excellent course that plays very difficult in the wind. Bunkers, fairways were in great shape, greens were excellent shape and putted true and fast. This course makes you think; if you want to score well you need accurate yardages on virtually every shot. Clubhouse was clean and service was fast. The par 4, 8th hole at 445 yards should be a par 5.
good to great course
very nice golf course greens very challenging beautiful track with lots of wide open marsh views some interesting holes, esp the ones that take the driver out of your hands
very nice layout
Very nice course with an exceptional staff. Pace of play was perfect especially for a Sunday.
Nice course,good value
Good set of par 3's.Lots of carry over water.Fun course Greens in good condition
The course was in very good condition, fast greens, which I like, and you can't beat the surroundings.
Wow! Very impressed with this course. It was long at times, but overall very fair, having to hit all shots in your bag. It was too
good of a test in golf. I failed that test. Also, I want to point out that I went to your practice facility down the street for the first time, and I was really striping it, then went out to the course, I
couldn't repeat the great practice. Not your fault though... Can't wait to go back!
Great views on the first and last few holes.
Greens were great, great condition for the winter. Can't beat a deal at this course when its under 30.
