Loved it!

The fairways and greens were awesome. The greens rolled pure and were in great shape. They were working on some of the bunkers that were damaged several weeks ago with heavy rain.

Not worth the money

This course is definitely not worth even the discounted Golf Now discount price. One of the holes was under construction and you had to play a make shift hole twice. The staff is friendly but for the money I would play other courses. I’ve played many links courses this is not one of them. I generally don’t critique but due to my disappointment felt I had to. If you have to play one of these courses, the Harbor course is just as challenging and way cheaper.

Good challenge

Much better than the Harbor course, which is unnecessarily narrow and has postage stamp greens. The Links course is a proper course, representing a proper challenge of your golfing skills.

Good not great

We played the Links on our first visit to Charleston. We had some not great weather which may have colored my opinion of the course a bit. The course was in good condition, very tight. The few holes on the water were very pretty, but overall I think too expensive for a less than memorable course.

We played Stono Ferry on John’s Island the next day and my husband and I were far more impressed for half the price.

Bad from every angle

We played both the Harbour and links course out here for a small golf trip and we all left disappointed. The course conditions on the Harbour course were so sad to see given this being a Fabio designed course. Tee boxes filled with sand, torn up fairways that are wet, extremely slow greens, and horrible carts carts, direction of the course or next holes, tee boxes, etc.

The links course was better but only because of the views which is only really one hole because it is on the ocean. Course is some parts are under construction, more slow greens, no signage, no yardage.

We also were set up with an 8am tee time and they didn’t have anything open for breakfast(no other food close by). The only breakfast spot by the pro shop said they were shut down because not enough staff showed up. This was unbelievably disappointing all around.

Solid course and holes on the ocean at high tide are incredible

It was a solid course and would play again. Is it worth 280? Probably not. The course was definitely in good condition. I also will say that there’s really only one hole along the ocean.

Worth the money*

Was able to play this course thanks to a significant discount through GolfNow, and it was worth every penny of the discount rate! Don’t know if I would pay full price to play it ($260?!), but definitely worth it at about half that!

Wild Dunes, A great golf Experience

We played an afternoon round on a very hot day! The staff in the clubhouse was courteous and helpful. The cart crew were also very nice, they added extra complimentary waters in the cooler at our request. The started was a very nice Gentleman that gave us a little history of the course and shared some course knowledge on #1 before we teed off. The course was in immaculate shape considering the downpours the night before. The 17th hole is beautiful with the Atlantic Ocean and Beach just out of bounds, very picturesque. 5 star experience was shared by our group! Lunch in the clubhouse restaurant was also very good!

Did not operate as a resort caliber course.

Having played this course a few years ago, was excited to come back after some recent renovations.

Had a 730 tee time on a Wednesday. Showed up at 700 to warm up and check in. Pro shop staff hadn’t arrived yet, so we couldn’t buy range balls.

Went to putt while we waited, but were told by grounds crew that the putting green was closed due to needing to water it.

Pro shop finally opened around 720 - so no time to hit balls before we teed off.

Staff said nothing about the greens being micro-punched on Monday or that we were starting on 10 that day (16-18 as your closing holes are the reason you play the links course as they finish along the ocean).

Didn’t see a beverage cart at all during our round to get waters between the turn or the two coolers on the course.

Grounds crew was still mowing and raking while we were on our back nine.

Physical layout of the course was great - super playable course for all skill levels - but the experience left much to be desired, as compared to other resort courses in the southeast.

Greens were aerated. Started on the back side which obviously had been aerated first and were recovering not good but ok. The front side Greens were perceptibly worse. Had called the pro shop before I made the green fee purchase and was told that they were lightly tined which unfortunately turned out not to be true. Great layout
