Nice course

For February, course was in good shape, Course has a good variety of holes, The hardest thing for me was every green required climbing up some pretty steep slopes to get on and off so not recommended if you have bad knees.

Waste areas, love them it hate them.

A very different course with waste areas abounding. I enjoy the difference occasionally. Greens were very receptive. High and soft, low and fast all started on the green.

Great SC low country layout

Fun holes, mostly dirt/sand cart paths which add to the laid back feel. Elevated greens are challenging and deceptive yet not too evil!

December Day at Founders

You cannot beat this course for the price. The course is always in good shape and the service is very good. I always find the staff very friendly. I play golf for fun. This course fits into that even though a few holes are narrow.
