The Club at Pine Forest
About
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."

This course has great greens
Loved the challenge with the putting greens, They are very fast. Really have to think where you wanna put the ball on the green.
Good Day
Highly Recommended and very Challenging, the staff was very nice and helpful.
We are glad you enjoyed your overall experience at the course. We hope to see you back with your friends!
Very fun and challenging!
Nice course! Lots of water carries and your second shot on par 4 s has to be accurate!
Thank you for the review! We are so happy that you think our course is great. Hope to see you back soon!
One of the Best
As a 90's golfer I always find Pine Forest very challenging. But the course is in great condition for early Spring, and the staff and facilities are top notch. I will keep coming back, at least until I par number 10!
We are so glad you find out course challenging and think our conditions are great! We love having you at the course, hope to see you this weekend.
good course with a great price
I was visiting from Michigan and had the Pleasure of playing this awesome course. Staff was friendly and the course was pretty and tough. Will definitely play again when I come back down.
Thank you for the great review! We are so glad you chose our course to play while on vacation. We can't wait to see you back
Toughest course in the Lowcountry
The course is greening up and looking better. Pace of play is always an issue because of the high slope and hackers.
We are so glad that you think the course is getting back to great conditions. We hope to see you back soon!
Great Value
Excellent value overall. Course was in good shape. Pace of play was somewhat slow.
Thank you for reviewing and playing a round with us! We are sorry about the pace of play you experienced. We are always working hard on keeping up the pace of play. We hope to see you back soon!
Cheap and good play
Had great time. Good food. Great staff. Would play again.
Thank you for the review! We are you glad you had a great time with us. Hope to see you back very soon
the never ending nine
We booked 18 holes. When we got there we could see the group in front of us leaving the green. Though it took the two of use fifteen minutes to play the first hole, the group in front of us still had not hit their second shot. The kept lining up like they were going to hit iron shots two hundred yards on to the green and going no where. At first we assumed the course was super busy, which it was, but after a few holes we realized these chumps were just that bad. We waited an average of at least 10 minutes to tee off every hole, even after a third joined. We were never asked if we wanted to play through, there was no ranger, and no bev cart. Despite groups going out every ten minutes and temps near seventy. We stopped after nine because it took three and a half hours. I have never had problems like that anywhere else.
We are so sorry that you only played 9 holes. We also apologize for the lack of beverage cart and ranger on this day. We would love to make it up to you and give you a promo code. Please email me directly for a promo code, CharlotteTeeTimes@aol.com

Thank you for the great review! We are glad you have fun with us and enjoyed your round. We hope to see you back soon!
Nice Course, but Pace Too Slow
Stopped to play a round by myself, hoping to get 18 played in a reasonable time. No starter and no other players in sight when I hit the first tee. Looks promising, or so I thought. At the third hole, out of nowhere, I have another single player breathing down my neck. Not wanting to be rushed, I let him play thru. After that I encounter a single walking, a twosome taking forever looking for balls in the woods, and several other slow groups. Finally I had to skip 10, 11, and 12 just to get some breathing room. What started as a nice round had gone south because of all the distractions. It's a really nice course, but they need to have a starter controlling the spacing of players. I started at 230pm on a Wednesday, and didn't expect a logjam. Also, if you hit into the woods, take a quick look for your ball, then drop one within a minute if you don't find it. I could have written "War and Peace" while some clowns in front of me looked for their balls. One more thing.....no radios allowed on golf carts. Other players don't want to listen.
We are so sorry about the pace of play on the course and the radios in the carts. We would never want you to have a bad experience. We hope you will give us aother chnace, Please email me directly for a promo code CharlotteTeeTimes@aol.com

A Great Course for a Great Price
I started playing golf less than a year ago, but have fallen in love with the game since. This course has definitely played a role in that. Great facilities, helpful personnel and a distinct lack of snobbishness from players and staff makes Pine Forest a great place to learn the game, or to challenge yourself to improve. Great clubhouse and a great course. Lots of water, so be sure to check the signs and scorecards. The only thing I have ever not liked about this place, is that 3 times that I've gone to play a round, someone has bungled the maintenance of the driving range so that it is unusable. For the advanced, maybe that's not a problem, but for a novice like me, I need to get in all the swings I can before a round. So call ahead to check on the range. Love The Club at Pine Forest!
A Quickie
When I got to the course at 8am I realized that I was the first golfer on site. The day was scheduled for rain, and no one else showed up early. As a result I played a two and a half round and was having breakfast at 11am. Had a ball.
We are so glad you had so much fun at the course! We hope to see you back soon.
9 at Pine Forrest
Took in a quick 9 at Pine Forrest. Weather was great for December, 75 degrees. Other than the course still being a little wet from all the rain a couple of days earlier, had a great round!
Thank you for the review! We are happy you had a good time. We hope to see you back soon.
Thank you for the review! We are so glad you loved the challenge. We can't wait to see you back soon
