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.

Good test

The layout of this course provides a good test of your game. Plenty of dog legs, ponds, and well positioned bunkers are lurking, though the fairways are wide. My wife and I enjoyed our round at Westcott.

Better than ever!

Couldn’t be happier; the course was in fine condition, the staff friendly as ever and the pace of play was terrific! It was like playing a private course with no one in front or in back of us. Maggie, the starter, is the best!!

Good course for a muni

Played nine holes in league play. Three nines available; played Burn Kill which is between hardest and easiest. Course in Ok condition. Greens true, but fairways still to grow in. Good driving range and great clubhouse/bar available.

Wonderful track with a great layout.

Wescott is a great course, 27 holes and they all have their different challenges to them. Greens were a little slow because of the rain but the greens were beautiful.

Not impressed

Played Wescott because reviews made it sound like a quality course, well maintained, and in good condition. It was none of the above. It’s claim of not being like most muni’s is just simply not the case. The course layout is mundane. Not one hole stood out as a well designed or interesting hole. The fairways and rough were sparse, especially for a southern coastal course. The grreens were decent, but an invasive weed was present on all of them, causing putting to be less than ideal. The part of my experience that was the most disappointing was that every tee box was littered with about a hundred broken tees. That just lets me know that neither the staff nor the regular players care much about their course. It’s too bad this Charleston area public course is so bad. I guess I’ll play Wild Dunes or Kiawah next time I visit the area.

Nice Layout

This course could be a lot of fun. The conditions were terrible but may be it’s the time of year. Dead Bermuda with hard pan underneath. Tee boxes were mostly dirt. Greens rolled pretty nice.

Great experience

From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty, Clubs unloaded & directions to pro shop where the staff was attentive and helpful. Nice practice range with extra balls lying around for a quick warm up.

Played the challenging course with 2 young USAF gentlemen. Fairways bunkers came into play way too often for my game, but overall course conditions were great. Considering the beautiful weather and number of golfers pace was excellent.

Nice course

Course in good shape considering it's end of winter, course doesn't punish for minor mis-hits but does punish for just plain bad shots. Good selection of tees. Staff friendly, especially at the bag drop off

Nice layout and really good greens!

Pleasant round with friends on a cool and breezy day. The greens here are first rate but in stark contrast the tee boxes are terrible. I know it’s early in the golf season but it doesn’t look like any attention is being given to the tees. Fairways are just ok but I’m sure they will improve when dormant grass starts to grow. Come on ! Give the tees some love too.
