Nice course bit pricy

Enjoyed the course but it is a bit on the high side price wise. I would never pay full price.

Greens were fast and in good shape

Pace of play was slow.

Decent experience but not a 10

Great experience.

Played on a cold and windy day. Last played the course over 20 years ago. Looked forward to a "coming home" experience and was not disappointed. Course conditions were excellent for this time of year. Greens were smooth and relatively fast. This course appears to be much better maintained than the other Harbor course here. Even on a cold and windy March day, this is a great resort course to see and to play!

Great Conditions Especially for February

I enjoyed my round at Wild Dunes Links course. The conditions were fantastic. The fairways and greens rolled true and fast. The weather was great, 65 degrees in February! We played in 3 hours 45 minutes despite cart path only due to rain the previous day. I highly recommend playing here.

Unforgettable Experience

I had an early tee time on a golf now deal. Keep in mind this deal was still very pricey. Staff helped with pairing me with another for the first group so we could go without anyone in front of us and we finished in under 3.5 hours.

We walked the course and couldn’t recommend this enough. Every inch of this course is well maintained and fun. I played in January after all.

Greens are fast but fair and large greens make putting very important. Many memorable holes including the last 3. I find it pretty funny that everyone is saying not enough holes on the beach. Also saying hate finishing on a par 3. I recommend a Google search of hurricanes and erosion. Looks like the 18th is close to being built back to par 5. That will be a cherry on top once they get this done.

The pro shop guy probably in his 30’s has the personality of a sand crab but other than that this course is a must visit if you are in the area.

Great Day and a Great Course

I have played this course about a half dozen times in the past six months. The conditions are great, the greens roll true, and the pace of play was quick. Despite being a single behind three or four foursomes, I finished in less than four hours. I played at a leisurely pace, taking more time than usual between shots. I played one of my best rounds in the past year. The wind was up, steady at about 15 mph with gusts up to about 25. The staff is friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back again soon.

Great all around golf experience

A beautifully maintained course. Yes the price tag is large. And maybe for that much you would expect the ocean to be in play on more than two holes. However this is truly a sensational golf course. A good variety of holes, conditions are awesome year round. Truly one of the most enjoyable rounds of golf I think you can find anywhere.

Pretty Muc as Good as it Gets

It was my first time playing this course, and other than it being cartpath only it was a great experience. Pace of play was great. The course was in excellent condition and the layout was great.

It was really quite good value for the money given how good the course is. I’d highly recommend that anyone visiting Charleston make the time to play this gem.

Robust course

Rained all morning but course held up for a 12n tee time. Varied holes with some undulation in the fairways. Thoroughly enjoyed the round.

Ganz ok ,habe aber mehr erwartet

Würde weg von einem links course. Ausser Bahn 16,17,18 hat das nichts mit links course zu tun

Bevor ich wieder spielen würde,gehe ich noch andere Plätze in der Nähe spielen. Der Preis 169$ ist teuer für den Platz.

Not a links

This was not a true links course as name suggests. Only last two holes anywhere near the sea. Disappointed. Especially as we travelled an hour and a half to get there believing it was somewhere special

Fazio Gem

I jumped at the opportunity to play Tom Fazio’s first design during my recent visit to Charleston. Every hole is fun to look at and figure which way to work your way to the hole. Everything was in tip-top shape, with the greens and bunkers in fine resort-course form. Pace of play was great, but I went later in the day during blustery conditions. Nice practice putting/chipping green The driving range is smallish—irons only with floating balls, but that did not dampen my fun on the course. Frequent and friendly beverage cart.

Nice course

We decided to get a round in while we were visiting Charleston. I picked Wild Dunes link course and we were all happy with the course. You don’t see the ocean until the last couple of greens and then have to look above the berm to see it. The pictures online makes you think that you will see the ocean along those holes but you really can’t. The course was in good shape and the greens were also okay. I would play it again and try the harbor course also.

Course condition

We played this course after heavy rainfall. We were informed to be prepared for extremely wet conditions. The course obviously has excellent drainage because we rarely ran into any water issues and the greens rolled beautifully. Will definitely be back.
