Golf Club At Wescott Plantation - Burn Kill Course
About
The Golf Club at Westcott Plantation is a 27-hole course that is situated within one of the area's oldest plantations. The beauty of the Lowcountry is evident throughout the golf course with centuries-old oak trees framing all the layouts and lush vegetation along every hole. The names of the courses: Oak Forest, Burn Kill, and Black Robin, all have origins in the plantation's history. Burn Kill is tighter off the tees than Oak Forest, but more generous than Black Robin. The golf course has a classic bunkering style and there are streams, ponds, and wetlands interspersed throughout for added challenge. The 8th hole is one of the most unique holes of the entire course. On this par 3, the black and blue tees attack the green from a completely different angle than the white, green, and red.

Review
Still need a ranger to oversee slow play. I think there might have been one but first in a bit. Pace was better bc of weather.
Hot day cool course!
first time playing this course. A hot weekday afternoon I was the only one on the course played in less than three hours enjoyed it it was fun. greens were nice balls seem to be rolling true.
First time playing here!
overall course conditions were good. Greens were in great shape. Had rain the day before course was cartpath only. So not many players showed up I played in three hours 18 holes good day for me. I would definitely play this course again!
Nice course
A very friendly course with wide fairways. Very good conditions. Only drawback was the pace of play approached 5 hours. The locals we played with said this was normal. Definitely need a ranger pushing along play.
Great Course Golf Now sucks
This course wasn’t bad however the pace of play was very slow due to people in front trying to play a scramble that had no business playing one. My negative review is for Golf Now as the weather conditions were rainy and we needed to get a rain check and Golf now doesn’t let you get one with their new rules which is atrocious customer service on their end. No one should ever book with Golf now they rip you off.
Good Value
For a city owned course, the facility is very good. Of course the course conditions were ok and could have been better but not to be expected for a Municipal facility in this area.
Ok Forest/burn kill
Second time playing Oak Forest and Burn Kill. Haven't gotten a chance to play Black Robin yet, but the courses have been enjoyable and not overly challenging. Pace of play leaves more to be desired and they just aerated the greens so they weren't rolling true.
Poor customer service pro shop cashier
I've played here numerous times living nearby. Booked online and paid online as I almost always do. At check in, cashier tells me I owe full tee time cost. I told him I already paid as I have done it this way many, many times. He proceeds to tell me I must be mistaken, and I must have only reserved time online. After multiple times explaining I already paid showing my receipt, the club pro/manager comes over and instantly corrects him showing the cashier on his own terminal it was paid in advance. Not even an apology. How about better customer service and consideration that the customer just may be right.
Even after the unpleasant start, the course was in the best shape I've played it in years. I played with a member, and he says it was in such good shape because of recent rains. If that's what it takes to be in such good shape, I recommend watering more, and I would make it a point to play there more.
I probably would have given 5 stars based upon course condition had it not been for rude cashier, but hopefully, it will be better next time.
Excellent Public Links
Fun course. Wide, accepting fairways. Greens in great shape. Bunkers were hard due to recent rains and should be tended at the beginning of each day to ensure reasonable play. Plays long, so tee it forward. Green tees are plenty long for a handicap in the teens.
