The Club at Pine Forest

I have always loved the course layout. If this golf course had just average greens I would play it all the time. The greens were so bad it just killed the round. What makes it worse is that the pro shop guy said that they don't look good but they roll great. WOW! Not even close. I would not send any of my friends to play it with greens in this condition.

Tough but fair course. Some hidden water hazards, yardage book came in handy. Greens were a little bumpy but held their line if you putted firmly. Had a great time with my son. Shout out to Chip and Tim, whom we were paired with. Friendly pro shop, snack bar, and cart girl staff. Good value.

Clean, kempt, and attractive landscape. Played 18 holes yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Beautiful weather; albeit, strong winds made for an interesting time. This, coupled with the design of each hole--I'm thinking water hazards--provides for a fun challenge complementing the gorgeous weather. Thanks for a pleasurable time.

Great club, staff, course, and value!!

The summer grass has not come in so the fairways are not at their best. They have also punched the greens so they are rough and not true. Pine Firest is one of if not the hardest course in the Charleston area and in about two to three weeks I would expect it to be back to it's normal excellent condition. I am usually very happy to score 10 strokes above my handicap on this course. Be advised there is a lot of water and the greens are very hilly.

Course is nice and we'll worth the price ($32). Some of the greens were not fully grown in.

Make sure you ring a six-pack. I'm not talking about beer or abs, I'm talking golf balls. The layout is really challenging with lots of water, undulating fairways and tiered greens. The greens were very bumpy, but it was early March and the greens had not filled-in yet. Take special care to stay below the cup. I'm from PA and hooked-up with two locals and enjoyed the entire round. If you're in the Charleston area, take time to play this course.

Bring your A game! It will be a long day if you don't drive it straight. Played from the blue tee's and made birdies and quads!

I'm from the Philly area and was passing through on my way to Florida. I saw the good reviews online and decided to book a tee time. When I arrived it was nearly empty. Probably because the temp was in the low 40s, but to me it felt like spring considering back home it had been in the teens with winds making it feel like below zero! I pretty much had the course to myself. I saw other people playing but they were a couple of holes ahead of me. I could tell that the course during warmer months must be a gem; the fairways were all brown except the greens. Can't complain though since I don't get to play in Feb. too often, if at all, in the Philly area. The layout is pretty challenging with water hazards throughout much of the course. The greens are relatively small and most of them were very undulating and fairly quick. I would not recommend this place for beginners or high handicappers. I would love to come back someday and play this course when my A game is on.

Play safe shots without risks or challenge the course to improve your handicap.. We enjoy Pine Forest everytIme. Pin placements can add strokes to your game, ball placement is crucial in the fairways with big greens which is nice for those who are not so accurate with the irons. Everyone should play this course and share your game. I shot 87 and at some surrounding courses 77. Enjoy!!!

Drove up and no one was at the bag drop. Parked, dropped bag and went in to pay. The lady was nice enough, but I had to pay about $5 more than GolfNow said I was supposed to pay. I opted for the round at 9:56am that was $13 more per golfer in our group of 3 than a 10:20 tee time, but when we got there they were on a frost delay and didn't tee off until after 10:30am anyway. A couple of guys 5 groups back were parked up at the t box and only after 2 groups asked the starter to go talk to them did he drive up there, talk to them briefly, and come back with them still sitting there. He said he went and told them they should go hit the driving range but they didn't want to...so he was just going to let them hover over the tee box while the next 5 groups went up until it was there turn. We were the next group up, so we pulled up and I made my opinion known to them that sitting there was pretty much a jerk move, and they acted confused for a minute then said something about their tee time was 10:18 and thought they were behind the 5 ladies in front of them. They then left and went to talk to the starter to clear things up. Either way, I had to do the starters job, or he was not clear with them. The course was on a frost delay, so that's going to come with some sogginess, but this was bad. There were plenty of spots where you had to half jump / tip toe to not slush in the mud. I would have done better wearing my bogs than my Nikes. The biggest water hazard was the fairway. No drink cart ever traveled the course. I grabbed a chicken salad sandwich at the turn and it was dry and tasted about a day old. I ate half and threw the rest away. The course design itself was actually good. The greens were challenging and misleading, but I like that stuff. It makes it more fun. If they took care of the fairways and greens better I would enjoy a course like this. The cart path is atrocious. Cracks, bumps, huge puddles, holes. Certainly not a comfy ride. The other 2 in my group drove cart #24 which the battery was dying on for the last 4 holes. It just looks like the ownership / management has given up on having a quality golf setting for customers.

We were traveling home from SC and called....were able to stop in and play...for a GREAT rate....and really enjoyed it! Very friendly staff...course was wet, but hey, it had rained a lot a few days before! Would play here again without a doubt!

I played in late Dec, was surprised how green the course was for that time of year, its obviously well maintained. When I played it was super wet, but granted its been a rainy couple of weeks. I'm not a very experienced player, but I will say I found the course very challenging. Not a ton of bunkers, but water is in play nearly every hole, and tons of undulations particularly near the greens which makes approach shots very difficult. Fairly long course too, almost 7,000 from the black tees. Pace of place was slow the day I played, I had to wait nearly every shot. But overall, fun course and quite nice. I'll definitely play again but hope to play when its drier.

Cart path only for play. Course was extremely wet. Greens were running fast despite all the water. Noticed many unrepaired ball marks on the greens. Lots of undulation around the elevated greens makes the approach shot challenging. This will be a great 18 holes when it dries out.

Poor course condition lift clean and place should be in effect the greens are abnormally undulating I feel this is a very tough course to score on. The starter was a very nice 80 year old fellow and he had great sdvice. I have played many courses all over the US and this one is possibly the most sever as far as huge slopes on the greens

Had a lovely time playing this well designed course, best weather, greens were moderately fast and difficult to read (my problem!). Only issue is that the course was still very wet in places. Otherwise very nice and great value for the $.

Much better than average course for exceptional price ($25 with cart this day), best deal in the Charleston area. Plenty of 3- rated courses charging more, worth the extra 10-15 minutes drive to get here. Easy checking in/out, staff was nice, electric cart, no complaints. 4+ rating seems right.

Sunny and 75 degrees. What more can you ask for in South Carolina. Perfect day for golf.

Enjoyed playing golf, it was a beautiful day and the course was in great condition! First time playing in South Carolina, so the grass was different than Indiana. Will play there again if in the area!

We were on vacation and found this jewel of a course. This course has a challenging lay out with water hazards and sand bunkers on each hole. Tee boxes, fairways, greens all in excellent condition! Friendly people in pro shop. All in all great golf experience.
