Great Course

I have played this course about 6 times and for the money it's great. The bunkers could use some work but that's it. Would recommend for anyone.

Great Layout

I live one hour and fifteen minutes from this course and I won't hesitate to drive and play it again. The course was in great shape from the tee box to the greens. The staff was very friendly. This is a must play if you live in the area.

Review on the Independent and Chester Courses

This is the first time after using Golf Now that I have ever truly wanted to write a review. This is totally unbiased and how I felt after playing Mt. Vintage yesterday.

- Staff: Extremely welcoming, professional appearance and very helpful given this was my first time at Mt. Vintage.
- Facilities: Very nice and they even had clean bathrooms. Also out on the course there are shelters every few holes complete with a water fountain and men's/women's restrooms. These also were in very very very clean condition.
- Food/Beverage: Had a hot dog and drink at the turn and the staff inside the bar area were very friendly and struck up conversation with us. (Made us feel at home)

Now onto the "Golf" portion.

- Practice Facilities: One of the best I've ever seen. Better than anything in the Columbia area.
- Practice Green/Course: This was when I realized that this isn't tif-way greens. It's Bentgrass. Let me tell you, these greens are TRUE, SOFT, and very good. I found that the speed of the course greens were the same speed as the practice green which is very important to me in preparing to play.
- Independent Course: Absolutely Perfect. Nothing here I can critique. I shot 4-Over here.
- Chester Courss: Almost Perfect: A few of the bunkers are in need of some re-working. (Only Reason for 4 vs 5 stars)

All in all I will be making the hour drive from Columbia a lot more often for this true gem of a golf course.

Beautiful, picturesque & challenging golf course!!

I have been wanting to go over and play this course for quite some time. It is about 90 miles from my house but decided to go and try it after seeing a great deal on GolfNow for a 12:30 PM tee time on Saturday, August 1, 2015. Mount Vintage Plantation has 3 9-hole courses so you may want to be prepared for extra holes! The course is extremely picturesque, challenging & in great condition. Pace of play was also good but that is probably because of mid-day tee time though. I would definitely recommend in making the drive over to play this jewel of a course!! You will not be disappointed, I assure you of that. Make sure that you take extra balls because for the majority of golfers, you will need them! Staff was very friendly and overall, it was a great day of golf for me with a 72. Definitely recommended!!

Great Course

Played this course in the hot of the summer and have to say it was in great shap. The track is one of the best around and give you a good opportunity to shape the ball. Everything is well manicured, with the fairways being some of the best around.

The greens are super receptive, but show signs of significant ball repair, this is due to the type of grass that needs to be kept at a lower temperature, therefore, the course has fans and waters the greens throughout the day leading to the greens being sofg. The greens play slow but for the most part true.

Nice layout and fair

Not to far from Evans.ga where I live and the course is not a hard layout and in pretty good shape. Range balls were included at no extra charge which save you money. GolfNow had a good price and saved about $10.00 off regular price.

Great value.

I've been fortunate to have played most public courses within 60 miles from my home, and I will assure you Mt. Vintage plantation courses are at the top of my list to play again. I am an avid golfer who appreciates a good challenge and I got one!

Nice course, but...

This is a first class facility with a great practice area, restaurant, and club house. Has 3 nine hole courses. We played Vintage and Chester. The greens were aerated and sanded the previous week and had not fully recovered, and thus were very slow and bumpy in places. Once they heal, they should be very nice. Fairways were still a little thin and some were weed infested. Bunkers were full of sand, but somewhat compacted. I like the layout of the course, the elevation changes and scenic holes with the water features. Will be coming back in a month or so to see it with normal greens and hopefully less weedy fairways.

Making a comeback ...

I played this course in 2000 when it was only 18 holes. They added 9 more tough holes in 2008 and shortly thereafter the course went bankrupt. It is in a beautiful neighbourhood totally focused on golf. Fifteen years ago there was not a blade of grass out of place. It was not that good this time but you can see it is making a comeback. I wish them well. It is a really good course with lots of water but fair.

The Mount Vintage Advantage

Played Independent (front) and Vintage. The front 9 was played quickly and without any waiting. The back 9 was just the opposite from the 10th to the 18th as we ran up against the final group of a scramble tournament turning from the Chester 9. Even so, the course & clubhouse is beautiful; staff is friendly; practice/warm-up facility are excellent.
