1st Time Playing Wild Dunes Links Course

The course is beautiful, has a nice layout without some very scenic views and is challenging yet not overly difficult. Fairways could use some attention as there are lots of bare spots. Not terrible but not what you'd expect on a $100+ course. Greens were in nice shape overall and put very true. The real teeth of this golf course are the tricked up greens and wind from the ocean. Our round was very enjoyable and I would definitely recommend this course and would like to play it again!

One of the very best

I have been fortunate enough to play a lot of nice courses all over the country. I can't remember one that i enjoyed more than this one. Beautiful layout and in excellent condition. A bucket list course.

A fun and challenging course

Interesting layout. First timers need to play their green shots to the center as the greens have sideboard runoffs and the wind can play havoc as well.

Questionable Value Given Condition, Tight But Interesting Layout

Resort golf with a few holes on the ocean is not usually a cheap proposition, but even at Hot Deal pricing, the condition of the fairways were a real disappointment. Staff claimed cool conditions in April and early May were the culprit, but other nearby courses seem in much better shape. No such complaint about the greens, however, they were excellent. The attractive Fazio layout kept your attention, though often fairly tight as you might expect. Pace of play suffered because a family of 6 with 2 children were directly in front of us and had our threesome waiting for every shot. Even if only 4 of 6 were playing, the decision by staff to allow 6 on the course with 2 10 years olds playing at 1 pm was questionable.

Fairways Need Work

There were many bare patches on fairways add near greens plus everything was aerated. I felt there should have been a fees discount given course conditions. The greens were in very good shape.

Pace of play was slow, and a they are about to lose a few of the fairways. Tee boxes and greens are fine. Pretty lay out. Worth it if you can find a deal tee time.

Most gorgeous course I’ve personally ever played!

When I knew I was coming to Charleston, (April 20-24, 2021), I knew there had to be a golf course on the ocean. I’ve never golfed on the ocean. While only the last three holes have ocean views, it’s totally worth the wait. 17 and 18 are absolutely incredible! I didn’t tee off till after 4:00pm, the pace of play was kinda slow, but we made it through 18 holes before sunset, which made the last holes even better with sunset on the beach. Thanks to a Hot Deal and a promo code Tee Off had going on, I played this course for waaaayyyyyy cheaper than I ever expected! (Keep watching the app and try to wait for promo codes!) Overall, the course was most definitely pristine! I was more than satisfied with my experience!

Great day

Staff is great. Little unclear n getting out, but just a small oversight other part, no biggie. Starter and all staff very friendly. Layout is great, grass is sooo short and fairways a bit rough, but NOT bad. Maybe I'm just not used to fairways being that slick and flat. I would play again but would also try to get a better deal. Probably a bit overpriced but for a special "one time" while on vacation was fine.

Greens were in great shape. The rest of the course was in pretty rough condition. The finishing holes into the wind were tremendous.

Overall an Enjoyable Round

First time playing this.course and I was not disappointed. With no one in front or behind us pace of play leisurely and enjoyable. Overall course was fun to play, challenging but not overly difficult. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Only downside was the grounds crew were constantly using the leaf blowers on the fairway. Other than that would play here again.

Last three finishing holes are awesome!

This course would have gotten 5 stars if the fairways were in better condition. The greens were absolutely immaculate. The tee boxes were pretty decent. Fairways were a bit disappointing. The last three holes by the Ocean are worth the drive from Charleston and worth the money. If the groundskeeper puts a little more TLC on the fairways, this will be a gem.
