About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6905 yards
Slope 138
Rating 73.9

The 18 semi-private holes at Pine Forest wind through the tall Summerville pines with numerous live oaks, dogwoods and a lake system thrown in for good measure. With an equal balance of straightaways, doglegs and elevation changes, this course is nicely balanced, with challenges and fun in store for golfers of all levels. Rental clubs and electric carts are available.

At 6,905 yards with a 138-slope rating, Pine Forest lives up to its name, as the course has numerous barriers of tall Summerville pines to cause problems for an errant shot. The Bob Spence design also makes use of water to add to the difficulty of some holes. It's a semi-private course, and they've named each hole, with No. 12 being known as "Little Augusta" while No. 15 is "Wastelands."

The pace of play was EXTREMELY slow. We paid for 18 holes and were only able to play 9 as it took over 3.5 hours to get through 9. The started told us to try and keep it under 2 hours for the front and the back which was comical as we had two groups in front of us waiting to tee off at our tee time.

Great Place! And making a comeback.

I played 18 in the morning after it rained. I wasn’t expecting much, and it ended up being great. The first couple of holes were wet from the night before but fantastic after. I had my doubts on the pace of play bc of a tournament the first hour and we teed off 10/15 min late. But it was really good. Zero complaints on it whatsoever.

I played with someone that plays there regularly and says the course is making a huge comeback. It is getting better every month. Maintenance on the greens, and traps, etc.

Highly recommend it.

Great Course for the Value

It's been a busy weekend to book and get an early tee time. Glad I got one and enjoyed playing the course thru golf now. I have played here couple times. I wish they could get the greens to a better level, this course would be phenomenal.

The course layout is really good. Driving range and practice green lacking but it’s ok. The biggest issue was the greens. Plans infested and a lot of bare spots around the fringes.

Interesting lUout

Water comes into play throughout. I found it very interesting and challenging for my 20 handicap. Was in sand only once but water a couple of times. Course was decent for winter conditions.

Nice course

This was a nice course. It was in really good shape considering the time of year. Can't wait to play it when the weather is better.

Most holes you are better off left than right. And itnseemed.like everyone had water. The course is definitely challenging.

Excellent course for the money

When the greens are in good condition, the course is wonderful. If it's wet or recently rained, it gets super muddy. Overall, I never regret playing there.

Poor conditions

Unfortunately this course still suffers. I have played this course 5 times in the last year and a half. Hoping to see improvement in the greens or in the overall course condition. Played in May, August, Sept and Oct and either the course has been extremely wet(under water) or the greens are totally blighted and unsuitable.

Shame since the staff and clubhouse staff are so nice as well as the greens fees low.
