Very Nice

Played Cleghorn for the first time yesterday (05/29/21). What a beautiful and good conditioned golf course. From the pro in the clubhouse until the final putt dropped it was a wonderful experience. The Pro was very friendly as was all the staff, and the course is beautiful and in very good shape. Not a bad hole on the course. I didn't play well but still loved it. It took just over an hour from Greenville to get there but a easy and pretty ride. I will be back and look forward to it. If you have not played it, schedule a round and go enjoy it!

A gem remembered

Played on 05/26/2020, after not playing here for 15 years. It was a course we always enjoyed just a 75 minute drive so we usually played closer to home. We have received record amounts of rain lately so the course was cart path only. The course was wet in places but very playable and fantastic. Overall the course is in great shape and beautiful to the eye. We enjoyed the first 18 so much we played another nine. The staff here is friendly and accommodating. Clubhouse is nice and accommodating also. Tom Jackson designed a gem here and the staff has made it a must play with their conditioning. Treat yourself to a beautiful course that you will want to play again. We plan to return soon and enjoy it all over again!

Fantastic!

This was my first time playing the course and I was impressed and enjoyed it very much. One in our party had a coupon so we all played for $20.00 a man (fantastic deal). The course was in excellent shape and we almost had the course to ourselves (we teed off at 2:30 PM) so the pace of play was excellent. Staff was very pleasant and friendly. The course does have some elevation changes but nothing so much as to prevent you from playing well. I am a big fan of Tom Jackson designed golf course and this one is very nice also. I will be back to this course and would like to play the private course for members also. Go play Pebble Creek and you will enjoy it also!

Great Shape

Played 07/31/2017 and enjoyed it very much. All of the staff personnel were very friendly, helpful, humorous, and a pleasure to talk with. The course is a very fair course that is always kept in very good condition. A crowded morning when we teed of and it took us right at 4 hours to play. A good pace of play. This course is off the beaten path but well worth your the time to find. I will play in the future and recommend you do also!

Fantastic!

Just returned from our annual Myrtle Beach Golf trip (07/28-07/31/ 2017) having played Tidewater on 07/29/2017. We had played Tidewater about 15 years ago loving it then and now loving it even more. The Myrtle Beach area has not been getting rain this summer but the course was beautiful and in great shape. The staff members were friendly, good humored, polite, and great to interact with. Every hole is a delight with many having beautiful views. This course cost more than most in the MB area but it is worth it and you should treat yourself to this beauty. The carts have a great and accurate GPS system that makes you wish they all did. If you are going to the MB are to play golf make this a must to play. I loved it and think you will too!

Not good

The fairway grass is long and in some places too long. Just off the fairway is weeds and Bahia grass that was 2 feet long in some places. The sand traps and bunkers are terrible with some weed filled. The greens were ok but slow. Just not impressive in any way. I would and will not go back to play this course and would tell you to play somewhere else if you want to play a course in good shape.

The layout is pretty wide on most of the holes with wide landing areas. The course was in really good shape and the staff was friendly. We both enjoyed playing this course and look forward to returning for our next play! If you have not played them then you need to call and make a tee time. Play golf America!!

Fantastic!

This was my first time playing this course and what a great surprise it was. Personnel were very friendly and helpful. Made me feel welcomed and appreciated. This is a great Ellis Maples layout that was in fantastic shape. I was also surprised with the price..$25.00 to ride for 18 holes on a Friday. The course has many doglegs and is not a just grab your driver on every tee box kind of course. It is helpful to get the cheat sheet from the popshop (it's free, just ask) to help if you are playing for the first time. We teed off at 230 and never had a problem. I really enjoyed the course and look forward to playing it again in the near future.

Worth the wait!

I've been wanting to play this course since it opened in the 90's and just something always came up. Well, let me tell you that it was worth the wait. I finally played it yesterday and loved it. Pulling in you see a nice clubhouse that house that English/Irish/Scottish look to it. Walking into the clubhouse was met with a very friendly hello and welcome. Played using the golf ap, Golfnow for $31. What a deal! The course is short from a yardage standpoint but the choices it gives you are fantastic. Haven't used this many different clubs in a round of golf in a long time because of choices and strategy. The conditions were very good for this time of year. Maintenance personnel were on the course working which is nice to see. We enjoyed every hole so much we did a replay (only $15). Fantastic course, people, cold beer, and fun. I can't wait to return for another 36 holes!!

Very Nice

I have been visiting the Greenville are for many many years and have wanted to play since it opened. This was my first time but not my last. I started as a single and ended up joining another single who plays here often and was helpful with course knowledge. It has been a very, very dry summer for us in the upstate but the course was green and in good shape. The staff was very friendly also. I have nothing but praise for the course and look forward to my next round here!

Blind Shots

I must start out and state that the course was in very good shape and the staff was very friendly. That said, I am not a fan of courses that has this many blind shots. When playing the first time without any course knowledge it is unfair. When you hit a tee shot down the middle of the fairway and end up in the ruff (high and thick ruff) because of a very sloping fairway you could not see..unfair. I would play again and recommend because of the conditions and the staff just not my favorite in the Greenville/Spartanburg area. Not a course to walk!!

Disappointed

It had been a few years since I had played here but loved it then. The layout is really nice but the conditions had gone from great to average at best. They have bent grass greens but crab grass is everywhere throughout every green which does hurt your putting. I really loved playing here years ago but will not go back in the near future. This was once an upscale club but times have changed. It is more like an average municipal course with country club prices. The staff was extremely friendly and nice. I just can't recommend it now based on the price vs the shape it is in.

Great Find!

I played this course the last two Wednesday's and loved it. It is out in the middle of nothing but what a course. Every hole was in very good shape with all greens in great shape and consistent. Lots of elevation changes but a very fair test of golf. Loved the layout and really everything about it. I highly recommend playing Woodfin Ridge and I plan to be back myself.

Very Nice!

I had not played this course in ten or more because of the distance from me. It was good then and has only improved with time. This is an upscale club and you know it the minute you pull up to the gate. The clubhouse is beautiful, the staff is very friendly and accommodating, and the course (it is 27 holes) is in great shape. They punched the greens a couple of weeks ago, but they are fine. I didn't miss any putts because of that. The course is a nice challenge while still being playable. I used GolfNow ( if you don't have this app, you are missing out on saving a lot of money on many great courses) and paid $19 with the total being $24.00. What a steal for almost any course, but an upscale club like this. It was a real treat that I look forward to doing again. If you looking for a place this is it, "Go Play!"

Hot Summer Sun

I play this course regularly because it is one I can get on as a single during the week without any problems. The staff is always very friendly. The hot summer and lack of rain are starting to take its toll on the course. The tee boxes are in poor shape and very hard. It is difficult to get long tees into the ground. Fairways are OK and the greens are in good shape. This is a course that if you are not a good driver you are going to loose balls. The woods are thick and on every hole. Very nice layout and a good challenge. I will be back to play and when using golf now you cant beat the price!

WOW

$15 dollars using Golf Now, wow!! Staff is always friendly, the course always in good shape and fun to play. They punched the greens two weeks ago and they are looking good. Still a little sand but did not effect any put. I talked with greens crew and they goal is to be beautiful in all ways about the first week in July. I have no complaints about anything now, I can't wait until July. If you have not played here..."go play."

Always Good!

I have been playing this course for years and it is always in very good condition and the best deal in town. Golf Now's price for $25.00 for 18 holes makes this an excellent deal. A six pack and chicken salad sandwich (which was very good) was $16.00. I guess not a great value but in line with most courses. The staff is always friendly. The only complaint I have is over the years (to include yesterday) is as we made the turn a foursome started on the back nine. This seems to occur a lot here with the pro shop starting them their. They only held us up on two holes but this just should not happen. I have never played this course when it was in anything but good condition. Make sure you are below the pin on every hole (very undulating). All the par three's play longer than the yardages.

Enjoy and fairways and greens!
