About
Timberlake Country Club in Chapin sits on the shores of Lake Murray, just outside of Columbia in the Midlands of South Carolina. The classic design is reminiscent of traditional Scottish links courses, featuring a combination of water and pot bunkers as well as large grassy swales. The golf course sprawls across rolling hills, which provide plenty of contours and elevation changes. From the elevated tees, golfers will have a dramatic view of the rugged landscape. The golf course is mostly open though there are a few stands of mature trees that can be troublesome if you're not careful. The cavernous bunkers and carefully molded mounding present formidable challenges that will test even the best golfers. In addition to the golf course, Timberlake also offers a full driving range and practice green as well as tennis courts and an Olympic-sized swimming pool.

4th hole par three. Pond in front and lake to right and back Photo submitted by u631580812 on 07/01/2019
Needs some improvement
Greens need a ton of help. For price and location this course should be in better shape. You can see some improvements being made on ponds but the tees, fairways and greens are very bare.
Golf now tee time
Booked a tee time on golf now drove 45 minutes to find out they closed course early. Some rain earlier in day but absolutely gorgeous for the second half of day. If you book I'd recommend calling in advance.
Greens are BAD right now.
Greens are half sand/half just dormant or dead grass. You get to watch your putted ball hop, skip, knock and then die on sand. Not sure why because no other course around is like this. They were heading this direction before winter 2021 and have just gotten worse.
Lost greens
Not sure if this is intentional or not but the majority of greens are badly damaged or lost. Maybe they are planning to replace them. There is a lot of work going on out there. Lots of pines being removed, the par 3s with pond are drained and work is being done on retaining walls. 17 was closed. Fairway are filling in, the few greens that were in slightly better condition were hard and died out. Personally I will give the course some time before returning, I like course just not in this bad of condition.
Greens
The greens are in transition burned out everywhere
Ok for Winter
Doing a lot of work on the course. Cutting a lot of trees. And the back 9 greens need some work around the edges.
First timer that was not disappointed!
Friendly staff, challenging but fair good looking course, I have been hesitating to play here because of some reviews but I was pleasantly surprised! Greens are good and rolling, maybe one or two greens on the course need a little TLC but overall a very pleasant place to play!
Fair but has opportunity
Good layout, through the neighborhood, but needs some TLC with the greens and cart path.
Feel bad for the members
Great layout and some cool looks but the course is not properly maintained. The greens are terrible, super slow and necrosis everywhere. Would not recommend to anyone.
