About

The Legends at Parris Island offers a unique golfing experience and a challenging layout, amid a beautiful setting. Near Atlantic coast beaches and surrounded by beautiful marsh views, Parris Island is situated on a park-like military base where Marines are trained and equipped for U.S. military service positions all over the world. Golfers must have a tee time in order to come aboard Parris Island.

The golf course truly is a legend, having been rated as one of the top 10 military golf courses in the world. Yet it is little known by the outside world, tucked away from crowds, and a place of peaceful solitude.

The 18-hole golf course is lined with live oaks draped in Spanish moss. It features 6,898 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. The course rating is 73.3, and it has a slope rating of 131. Designed by Fred Findley and George Cobb, the Legends opened in 1947. Clyde Johnston redesigned it in 2000.

Need to be pre-approved

Play this course every year when I come to the area. Usually love it and have no issues. Booked on GolfNow and was never told you have to be pre approved to get to the course these days. Takes up to seven days to get approved. Got turned away after driving an hour to get to the course. Would’ve been nice to know.

Didn't Get To Play

Arrived at the gate early with all credentials as instructed by golfnow.com. After waiting for almost an hour, I was told by Military Police that I needed a DBIDS access card to enter the base. (Golfnow.com didn't mention anything about that.) So, now it was under an hour to cancel the tee time. My case has been escalated and if I don't get a full credit from golfnow.com, I'll have a decision to make in September.

No base access

After driving over an hour to get to the course I was not allowed access due to ‘heightened security’ measures. Would have been nice if GolfNow informed me in advance.

the course was very enjoyable pace of play was fabulous the greens were true and typical for this time of the year. because it is a Marine base give yourself plenty of time it could take 30 to 40 minutes when entering. FYI the flies are brutal especially when the tide is out, and the sun is shining. overall, it was a fun day and well worth the money.

A February round

Course was in very nice shape.Greens ran true and were quite fast as there was a tournament soon.

Pro shop help was much appreciated and eased the entrance at the main gate even with the necessary documentation completed weeks ago.

Lots of water to avoid and wildlife abundant.Made for an enjoyable round.Course could easily be walked.

Good course

For the price it was a nice course. Great pace of play. Challenging enough for 15-20 handicappers.
