Santee National Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Santee National Golf Club possesses all of the charms of the Carolina Lowcountry but it is also nicely contrasted with highland terrain. The course sprawls across rolling hills covered with moss-draped live oaks that demand accuracy. Both the scenery and the challenges continue with pristine white sand bunkers that stand out against the lush greens. There are also five sparkling lakes throughout that come into play on several holes. The front nine is wide open but the course narrows as you move onto the back nine and it also becomes more wooded. It is a tough golf course but more forgiving than it seems. As the only Golf Digest 4-star rated course in the area, Santee National has a longstanding reputation with locals and it is also popular with visitors.

Great Time
Due to the rain and no sun to dry it out the course was cart path only but was still very playable. I played with two of my golfing buddies and we had a great time. The replay was pretty expensive but we sucked it up and paid the twenty something for nine more holes. Not sure why fees have gone up on replays I mean you have already paid the cart fees. The clubhouse staff were very friendly.
Santee National
What a Beautiful course. Recent heavy rains made it Cart Path Only but course otherwise was in Excellent condition. Dave at the check in is a Very Friendly gentleman and is a Pleasure to chat with while checking in. We Enjoy playing Santee. Santee National is Truly an Enjoyable course !!
Great value
Santee National is one of the best values in golf. The course is kept is very good condition, has a number of exceptional holes, and costs very little to play. Worth the drive to Santee, no doubt.
Golf at it's FINEST
Let me start off by saying that I've been playing this course for many years. No matter what time of year I drive up from Summerville South Carolina oh, it's always in great shape. I played a couple of weeks ago and there was a blower machine clearing the leaves off of the Fairway. Now that's what I call customer service. Fairways are always green and the greens are always rolling true. It's always a bargain booking it through GolfNow. Do yourself a favor and wherever you are make the trip to Santee National oh, you'll be glad you did.
Very nice course
I drove over 2 hours to play at Santee National it was well worth the drive I would do it again and again course was in outstanding condition staff was super friendly
Another great day at Santee National
The course is in great condition, especially for this time of year. Everything is so well maintained, greens roll true, staff is great, and the layout is fun. All-around one of our favorite courses to play in SC. Absolutely worth the one hour drive from Columbia. Every time we play here we feel like we are on vacation. Can't wait to get back again soon.
Fabulous all the way around!!
Found this gem of a course @ 1 mile off 95 on our way to Florida. Astounded at the shape of the greens and fairways especially as it was such a great value. They have overseeded with winter grass which left the fairways looking springtime Green in the end of December. It was a challenging and beautiful course. The staff was so helpful and courteous. They even came out of the pro shop as we came to the turn to see how we were doing how we like the course and if we needed anything as they knew it was our first time there. You will find true southern hospitality at this course. We will be back!
Delivers every trip
Thiss course delivers time after time.. Weather was heavy fog at tee off. Ground was wet with fog/dew but no rain. Literally had to hit ball and then go down line to find ball. Lucky I do not hit it far but usually straight. Fog persisted through first seven holes then good sun. Adds a new challenge. Course was in really good shape. Winter grass has come in nicely on fairways. Greens were in great shape without dead spots or weeds and rolled true. Course was very uncrowded when I started around 9:30 and did get busier later, but I was in front of the crowd . Never caught up with anyone nor was I caught from behind. Judging from observations after round, do not feel pace of play was an issue even later in the day. Overall a beautiful course and, eventually, a beautiful day.
