Santee Cooper Country Club is the sister course to Lake Marion, which sits less than 15 minutes away. Both courses are known for their exceptional greens that offer fast, smooth putting surfaces. The course wanders through the forests of majestic pines and native vegetation that border Lake Marion. The fairways are lined with trees and form twisting doglegs that can be quite tricky to navigate. The layout consists of an interesting mix of holes including challenging par 3s and risk-reward par 5s, which are all spread across a variety of different elevation changes. It is a golf course that will test your skills with different shot requirements, so be prepared to use every club in your bag. Santee Cooper Country Club finishes with one of the best closing holes in the area, which is partly memorable for its beautiful panoramic view of the lake.

Decent course

played 9-12-13. A challenging course. total of 11 or 12 true doglegs and tight fairways with elevated greens and many hazards. Pin placement this day were tough, a 4 footer that edged the cup could run off the green. The GPS on the cart could be better it showed only yardages not a course layout like neighboring course Lake Marion GC. All in all i would play again but it would not be my 1st choice
