Cobblestone Park Golf Club - Garnet Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Cobblestone Park Golf Club in Blythewood boasts 27 championship holes. Formerly known as the University Club, the course hosts the University of South Carolina's golf teams. The holes are divided into three unique nines. The Garnet nine is the second longest of the three but it can feel quite lengthy thanks to the variety of elevation changes. The rolling terrain characterizes the golf course and adds to the diversity of the layout. Some of the highest points in Richland County can be found throughout, making the round as scenic as it is challenging. Strategically placed bunkers frame the greens and there are towering oaks and pines looming above the fairways. The tough layout will force you to use every club in your bag but the generous and inviting landing areas offer some respite.

Best course in Columbia
Always a pleasure to play at Cobblestone. It is always in the best condition of all courses I play in Columbia. Even in winter their greens are the best. Layout is very hilly with many doglegs. It’s a challenging course.
WOW superb golf course
This is the most beautiful layout I ever played, green in great condition,
Rainy at first however
Great course every time, played 4-5 times this year although 45-55 minutes away from my primary address. Course layout is exceptional, challenging elevation change for midlands course. Tee boxes and fairway were in excellent condition as were the greens ( fantastic ). One issue the snack bar was not open at the turn and no service cart, could have been the weather and lack of traffic that day ....45-50 degrees.
Tough but fun
Absolutely love this course. Visually beautiful, hilly, wooded and the best group of par 3's on one course I've ever seen. Each of the three nines has at least one island style par 3 set in water. Course can be long if you don't play from the right tee. I played from the senior tees (club) and it was fine. Cart path only due to overnight rain and that made for a 5 hour round. Normally pace is very good. One negative - no on course restroom that we were aware of. I've played all three nines now and there isn't one hole I would consider a poor design.
Cobblestone Park GC
Excellent course to play, never had an issue with pace of play until this past Saturday Oct.14, 2017. Seems the GC allowed a small tournament group 3-4 foursomes that slowed play considerably GARNET to BLACK.
Cobblestone
Like always, the golf course was great. Very well manicured. Staff excellent as well. One of the guys favorite, if not the favorite, golf course to play on there southern trip from Ohio no matter what time of year.
Cobblestone

Good experience
Very good experience. The course was in very good shape and the greens ran true. The bunkers had good sand. The elevation changes made for neat challenge. Enjoyable day!
Always nice
Course is challenging and in good shape. Things slowed up on the black course and had to wait on 5-9. Pace on the golf course was great.
Great course
Great value. Layout was really solid, Fastest greens I've played on this year. Course was in great shape.
Exceptional
I have played here more times than any other golf course in SC. I plan to keep it that way.
What a gem!
My wife and I were looking for somewhere to hang out and watch the solar eclipse then play some golf afterwards. What a surprise this golf course was. Simply put beautiful from start to finish. Picture perfect yet challenging golf. Loved it! Can't wait to go back.
Hidden Gem
This is an outstanding golf course. The natural terrain is unbelievable. Greens , tees and fairways were perfect. I will definitely plan another trip to Cobblestone Park!
Excellent course. Easily the best public course in Columbia.
