Rating N/A

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.

Mixed

Great clubhouse, range was off mats and $9 for a small bucket of very mixed quality balls. Greens super bumpy and slow - worst I’ve played this year. Layout flat as pancake and all holes pretty much the same. No GPS on carts and very few yardages marked in fairways. Basic muni- ok if greens were better

Rain days prior made for tough conditions

Pace of play was affected due to cart only. Otherwise it's my favorite corse to play.

Half great / half not so

Burn Kill 9 was in great shape. Very good conditions on tee boxes unlike other courses during the past week

Black Tobin was polar opposite- with poor conditions from tee boxes to greens.

Other than the pro shop staff and the starter - all other staff were grumpy!

Will assume this to be a one off. Would give it another shot.

Nice course but….

The course needs water! The ground was rock hard; almost impossible to put a tee in the ground. Fairway grass was very thin; very tight lies everywhere.

Conditions were not good.

The condition of the course was not as good as I hoped based on reviews. The tee boxes are in very bad condition. The fairways are not much better. The greens were in pretty good shape but really firm and had some spots of crab grass. I liked the layout, just wish it was in better condition.

Still dormant

Very nice track, however best played mid March and beyond. They just had a lot of rain, so footing and lies weren’t consistent. Enjoyed it nonetheless. Would absolutely play again.

Westcott

First time at this course. Had to stay on cart paths, as fairways were water logged. Understandable after last week's snow storm. Greens in excellent condition. Would play course again if travel opportunity presented itself.

Poor conditions

Golf course is not in good shape. The rough is either really thick and needs to be mowed or really thin. Lots of muddy areas, Greens were okay but slow

Course was fun to play. Generous fairways…just enough hazards…visually pleasing…greens on first nine had been recently aerated, but didn’t affect course play too much. Good bargain…would play again!
