Type Semi-Private
Par 36
Length 3484 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

Formerly known as the University Club, Cobblestone Park Golf Course may have changed names but it still offers one of the best courses in the Midlands. There are a total of 27 holes, which are divided into three distinct nines. The holes stretch across more than 240 acres of rolling hills. The Black nine is the longest of the three and naturally the most challenging as well. A variety of elevation changes come into play, ranging from subtle to dramatic. The golf course even features some of the highest points in Richland County, providing scenic views throughout your round. There are strategically placed bunkers lurking throughout and mature oaks and pines lining the fairways but the challenges are balanced by wide landing areas that are nice and inviting.

The coarse is in great shape

We played the gold coarse and as always Cobblestone is in great shape. I love putting on the fast but true greens. I hate to say it but we could use some rain to soften it up some. We will play here again and again. well worth the money!

The course was very nice great layout. Pace of play a little slow. The cart guys were great and helpful. Could use a beverage cart and there was no starter the day we played so a little hard to get going. I would play it again!

Fun challenging track

This course is always in top condition. The staff is good to deal with and well worth the money to play. This course forces you to use every club in your bag and you don't always need a driver off the tee.

Excellent Course

This is how a golf course should be. Excellent practice facility. Good customer service. Great conditions and well looked after course. Special note to the bag boys who bring your cart right to your car in the parking lot and load you up while you are putting on your shoes. We also stayed after the round because if you go into proshop after round they give you a coupon for your first beverage cost equals your score. What a great way to promote the clubhouse.

Great service

When the staff met us at our car in the parking lot ,with our golf cart , I knew this was an exceptional course.

The staff was very organized and friendly, making sure everything was in place.

Course was beautifully laid out with a combination of wide open and challenging holes.

Lots of elevation changes and water to watch for, could have had gps in carts to help first time guests navigate the course.

Greens were playable and easy to read .

Recommend playing this course while in Columbia.

Best Course in Columbia

Cobblestone is the golf gem of the Midlands (Columbia, SC). As home to the nationally ranked University of South Carolina Gamecocks golf program, the course is always in amazing shape. The Garnet 9 is probably my favorite for the reason, it is the only 9 you can realistically walk on the 27 hole course.

It starts with a gentle and scoreable Par 4 on 1. After a slightly disjointed walk/ride, #2 is a long (175 yard from the Member Tees) Par 3 that can be difficult when the pin placement is to the right. You do not want to be left of the green on #2. This goes into a frustrating dogleg of a Par 4 #3 which includes a ravine about 100 years from an up hill green. #4 is very uphill Par 3 which a difficult green. #5 is a beautiful Par 5 that includes a large water hazard and a large church-pew-esque sand trap. #6 is a long Par 4 and #7 is a deceivingly tough Par 4 that has a fairway that slopes to the right and a large waste hazard separating the fairway and the green. #8 is yet another uphil Par 3 and you finish with a long uphill Par 5 on 9 with a sloping fairway and a finish in front of the club house.

This is the best 9 on the course and is best when played with Black.

Great course!

Spent $22 on a hot deal w GolfNow. Love this course!! Challenging, but pretty open. It was raining and had been raining the past 5 days off and on, but the course drains well and the greens are SPECTACULAR!! For the winter months, the foliage is nearly non-existing. Lots of pine needles, but not many leaves, which makes it pretty easy to find your stray shots. Can't stress enough how much I enjoy this course!! Great practice facilities and the restaurant is great as well!!

Outstanding PERIOD

This course is wonderful, very pretty and hard to PAR. This is USC's home course, so it is a site to see. Pretty open, but you must hit the huge greens in a certain area due to speed and difficulty in pin placement. If you have never played here you SHOULD.
