Santee National Golf Club

The staff was super nice and honest about playing condition of the greens, and a true golfer must respect the honest. The staff show us about the condition of greens with low rates. I guess since I had just played Lake Marion SUPERB Golf Course, I expected the same thing here. Overall Santee National is a decent track.

I was staying 20 minutes away in Orangeburg and it was raining as I was wondering if I could play. I called course and the pro, David, told me weather in South Carolina is fickle, despite rainy forecast. I took the drive, David sent me off the 10th tee so I couldn't have to be behind a group of 12 and just as I finished 18 holes (on number 9), it began to rain again. Owners should be proud of David; he'd never seen me but treated me like a member. Enjoyed course though wet, would play again when I'm in South Carolina.

Greens in terriable shape, the test of the course was great.

This was 24th year our group had played this course. Great layout, greens are large. This year you could tell course has had a lot of rain. Greens rolled nice but not a lot of grass as compared to other courses this year. Played this course twice this trip.

Love the layout. Hilly and tree lined fairways. While still not up to great conditions due to lack of rain, the course was in decent shape.

Pro shop staff really friendly.

This course was a lot of fun, in great shape and and not crowded. We will return.

Enjoyed our time at Santee. Course Pro was extremely friendly and accommodating.

If you’re on vacation and playing new courses this is a perfect choice. Best course in Santee, though Lake Marion’s no slouch either. This one was far more forgiving though with nice big greens that weren’t overly protected or elevated. Cart was included but I chose to walk it as that’s usually my preference and found it very doable and enjoyable. Front nine is linksey and the back is forested which mixes it up nicely. Really enjoyed the friendliness of the staff and the terrific couple we played with. If you see this Tony and Janet, it was truly a pleasure and I hope our paths cross again someday.

Great layout, good greens and great value. I will play this course again soon.

For this time of year the course was in great shape considering all the rain we have had, staff was great , let us go out earlier than our tee time, Greens rolled true, fairways looked great

I played this course in dormant conditions with a light overseed, so it wasn't at its best. Still, it was easy to see how enjoyable this course is, even during wet, cold conditions. The holes are laid out nicely with a good deal of variety around the five lakes on the course. Greens are interesting, but not severe, and the topography is beautiful, which I'm sure I would appreciate even more if it were spring or especially fall. In short, this is a course anybody can enjoy.

Call it luck of the draw but it was a day when every thing just went right. The weather was perfect, no wind, sunshine, mid sixties. The course was a little wet in spots but manageable and otherwise perfect. We were able to play at our pace without ever having to wait or feel pushed. The greens were medium/fast, in great shape and rolled true. I know I played way above my pay grade hitting fairways and greens with such pinpoint accuracy that I had to pinch myself from time to time. I obviously left with a smile and a memorable round of golf. Just wonder why I can’t play like this every time.

The course was in very nice conditions except for two or three greens were just a little rough in spots. The greens were very fast and true. Played the round in 3 hours and 10 minutes. The staff was great.

The course was in good shape for November. Nice layout and challenging greens.

Played here as a part of our Santee package and were not disappointed.

Course was in fantastic shape. With the exception of a few tee boxes that needed a bit of work (Bermuda + Shade tough to manage), tee-to-green was great. Greens rolled smooth and had minimal imperfections. We were able to roll around and play another 9+ after finishing our AM round.

Santee National will continue to get the nod from our group each trip.

Player the course in late September. Conditions are excellent. There is plenty of challenge on this course but not too difficult, very playable course. Bermuda greens are tricky to read, must pay attention to the grain. Greens are excellent and receptive to incoming shots. Highly recommend this course. You will not be disappointed.

Very nice course with an excellent layout that requires a good strategy on each hole. I highly recommend it.

I have 4 dogs, so my joke for the course is that I'm sure there are more dog legs on the course than in my own home. I was surprised the par 3's didn't have dog legs. But seriously, it was a great course. It isnt long, but its personality presents it's own challenges. The greens were in great shape, good speed, and the fringes were puttable. Overall, it was a great course and I would beyond a shadow of a doubt play again.
