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.

Course in great condition
Played from the tips; tees fairways and especially the greens were outstanding. Tees were at all the way back; good, challenging pin placements.Pace of play was good.
Loved the greens
Even in early February, the course was in great shape. Would play it again in a heartbeat.
course was in good shape for feb. Like the square tee boxes. The greens are very big and hold well.
The front nine is very open for novice player and then tightens up on the back nine where ball placement is critical.
Challenging course, excellent condition, friendly staff
Enjoyed playing this course. We had a good time, would recommend it. Large greens.
Course plays great
Santee National is a favorite. Area has gotten an abundance of rain lately. The fairways are mown but a little shaggy. The greens have been aerated in the past month but are recovering nicely. Greens are slow but relatively true. Can't beat this course at the Golf Now rate.
great design with challenging features
Hey fun golf course to play that would challenge you on some golf shots and will be for giving on others
