Course Highlights
The wooded layout across 27 holes offers genuinely varied terrain, with well-regarded bunkers and greens standing out among recent rounds. Friendly pro shop staff and solid course amenities contribute to a welcoming experience worth returning for.

The Golf Club at Westcott Plantation may be owned by the city of North Charleston but it is far from being your typical municipal course. The 27-hole layout is divided into three nines: Black Robin, Burn Kills, and Oak Forest. They each take their name from the plantation's long history, it's one of the oldest in the area. Care was taken to preserve the centuries-old live oaks and pristine wetlands that are scattered throughout the entire course. Black Robin is the tightest of the three nines with small greens that make it the most challenging as well. Every hole is framed by lush vegetation and various streams, ponds, and wetlands come into play throughout the course. The golf course ends with a welcome chance for a birdie in case you didn't fare too well on the tougher preceding holes.

Terrible Customer Service!!!!

Staff was very argumentative!!! They felt entitled to belittle people just because they work there!! Course was like playing off concrete and the greens were slowwwwww!!! Grass isn’t cut so you can easily lose ball in first cut!!! Never will play here again!!!

Affordable Great Course in Charleston, SC

Challenging, but open layout. Nice driving range. The bag drop area in relation to the pro shop in relation to the carts makes no sense. Greens could be in better condition, overall the course condition is fantastic. Really a fun course to play.

Thank you for taking the time to review us and we are pleased that you enjoyed your day here. Yes, the greens are subpar at the moment due to going through the aerification process last week. The weather has been ideal for the growing in period and the greens should be back to our standards by the end of the month.

Rough shape

Overall a fun course to play minus the course conditions. Tee boxes were chunky and uneven. Greens were hot and burnt aside from aeration.

Thank you for taking the time to review us. Unfortunately the aerification process is a necessary evil to maintain long term healthy and strong greens. We generally aerate twice per year: beginning of June and again in early August. The weather conditions are optimum this time of year for the this procedure.

As for the tee boxes, we couldn't agree with you more. Earlier this year we prioritized the bunker restoration, cart path repairs and a new clubhouse roof ahead of the tee boxes. However, as we look to the future, the tee boxes are extremely high on the list for needing help!

Thank you for visiting Wescott Golf Club and I hope you come back to visit...the greens should be in fine shape by the end of the month!

1st under 4 hr round in a long time

Love to play in 4 hrs or less especially when the course is in good shape. Course was manicured even with the extreme heat we have had. Great day

Black Robin

My first time playing the course here. It was great condition even though it rain the day before. Greens were in great shape! Will be back another time! Three 9 holes courses to choose to play. I wish I could have played all three! Burn Kill course was close but the other two were awesome! Friendly staff and a few group of three and four some let me play pass because they saw me playing alone! Great experience over all.

A Great Vacation Golf Outing

Went and played this course on 4th of July weekend with friends of varying skill levels. The course was in great condition and the staff made us feel welcome and made navigating the course as a newcomer easy.

The only thing that affected our day was the varying pace of play. We were being pushed and then as soon as we let them play through we were waiting on each tee box, but that’s just how it goes sometimes.

Overall, this course was a highlight of our weekend and was a fun round for a group of casual golfers.

As expected

During these unpleasant times great to get out on the course. Greens recently punched but should be good in another week or two..4 1/2 hour round but cartpath only due to heavy rains the night before.

Most golfers should enjoy this although par threes have a similar look and feel and can be a little penal.
