Carolina National Golf Club - Egret Nine
Rating Snapshot
About
Carolina National Golf Club boasts a 27-hole layout designed by Fred Couples. Situated along the banks of the Lockwood Folly River, the course encapsulated the beauty of the low country. The holes are divided into three nines that are named after the birds that can be seen throughout the course: Egret, Heron, and Ibis. Couples placed an emphasis on preserving the rich natural landscape and wildlife, earning the golf course designation as an Audubon Sanctuary. They each have unique designs but they all have challenging greens that are some of the best in the area. The Egret nine will reward long, strong drives. This and the Heron nine are home to the six holes that play along the river. These are some of the most visually stunning holes. Carolina National Golf Club's three nines provide three different 18-hole combinations.

Why wait to spruce up??
The course is a little older, but has some.nice views. A beautiful track of land to work with. However, being in a high vacation area, there were some surprises when we arrived. No snack bar to get our necessary items before the round starts, along with a sign indicating there would be no beverage cart....that can be very disappointing. Especially considering how strict they were with bringing in anything from the outside. We should've know the course was going to show some issues when we were told that the course was old and the sand traps were in rough shape. All in all a decent course, but overdue for some "TLC"!
Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to the staff. Thanks for visiting us!

Played Heron - Ibis ... Course was in really good shape. Very few areas that were under repair. Maybe one small area on one green. The rough is the type where you can walk circles around your ball and not see it. Staff were all wearing masks except the starter (and most had mouth and nose covered...). Challenging course for me but overall great round.
