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.

Nice Course but the Rough is too High

Great cart paths and the course is well marked. They have 150 yard poles and the cart path is embedded with yardage signs. Sand traps were some of the best I have played. We got the $5 hamburger plate and the fries were the best we have eaten. The rough at Black Robin waa way too long. Clumps of grass was all over the place and the ball would sink in the grass until it was completely out of siight. Very diifficult hitting out of the rough.We were loosing balls less than a foot from the fairway and we were finding balls all over the course because an inner city tournament was held earlier that day. Loosing a ball on a hook or slice is one thing but loosing balls on the edge of the rough makes for a frustratinhg day. This is a 5 star coursr if they dont wait so long to mow and can cut the rough shorter.

Always a good place to play!

The course i very well maintained, and the greens are very fast. Friendly staff and the rates are in my opinion, very cheap for this nice of a course. Unfortunately, it gets so hot here in South Carolina, your begging for a light breeze. But if you can make it though the heat, or get their early enough, you will have a good time.

Pleasant Suprise

I am a football coach in town for a clinic. I was looking for a course that was suitable for all skill levels as my group ranges from good to poor. We played the Oak Forest 9 and the Burn Kill 9. I am on average a 18-20 handicap golfer. I shot an 85. The fairways are wide. The greens were pretty big and they were in great shape even though they aerated only two weeks prior.. Hardly any water...and that is different for Charleston courses. We played the Wild Dunes Harbour Course the day before and I shot a 97 and lost 5 or 6 balls. I played the same ball all 18 holes at Wescott and parred 7 straight holes. Nice driving range, putting green, and separate chipping areas.

Nice Clubhouse with good menu. I really can't say enough nice things about the place. We will definitely be back next year.

It was challenging but fun.

We booked the time because of aerification (expecting a challenge on the greens). The greens were in great shape. In fact, the tee boxes, fairways and greens were great. It was fun.

The greens on all 27 holes are the worst in the whole area. There are much cheaper courses in the low country with much better conditions.

Great outing.

The staff at Wescott were friendly, patient, and accommodating--especially for one who enjoys setting out on his own. Wescott Golf Club presents one with several tracks to play, manicured landscapes, practice areas with which to prepare for the challenges ahead--and an enjoyable cart ride. Moreover, I found my experience overall to be a relaxing and fun.

Disappointed in my favorite course in Charleston

First of all I love this course and it's always my first option, but the greens were absolutely terrible. So many dead spots that it pretty much made putting not even worth it. I'd say somewhere around 30-40% of the green was damaged on all 18 holes of the 27 they have and I played on.. Love the course and its staff but if I'd had seen or was notified by the staff I wouldn't have paid $48. I know it happens and it's hard to keep everything perfect. First bad experience I've ever had there.

Refund?

The greens were absolutely horrible. They just aerated the greens and it was basically a sand trap and the other greens were half dead. Why would they charge full price knowing the greens were so bad? Huge disappointment.

Rough Greens

The greens were not in good shape. Large bare spots on all the greens. They rolled better than anticipated once seeing the greens. The condition did affect putting. I was surprised to see Wescott permitting 5-somes. This group of five slowed play. I saw Wescott personnel drive by this group and not say anything to them. I play here often and will play again but will wait a few weeks to see how the greens fill in.

Excellent value

My husband and I played this course twice while vacationing in the area. We tend to play later in the day (1or 2 pm), so only had a few fast moving singles in front of us and practically had the place to ourselves,. Greens are still growing in and should look better in a few weeks. Overall, a good value and nice course!

The worst

!!WARNING!!WARNING!! DONT PLAY WESCOTT!!

Been playing here and living here since 2002. Saturday will be my last time playing here. Slow pace, no control by management, brings the worst golfers and I'm not talking score or abilities I'm talking about not knowing when to let other groups play through when you are slow, people behind you hitting balls over your head when you are waiting on the group in front of you. Trash laying on the ground all over. No ranger monitoring pace of play. And I'm sorry but blue jeans don't belong on the golf course. In summery, there is absolutely zero management at wescott. This course is all about the dollars. How many people can we pack in, and they don't care who they hurt in doing that. This is not my first time playing here, so don't think that this guy is angry just by one bad day cause it isn't just this one day. Like I said I've been playing here since 2002, prob played here over a hundred times and it has never changed, only gotten worse. Then wait till its prime golf season and they want you to pay 55 dollars to play. Never again! WARNING!! WARNING!! DON'T PLAY WESCOTT!!

Challenging but Fair

I played this course with 3 friends on 2/19/16. Check In staff were very professional, carts were excellent and the course was Challenging but Fair. Course conditions were above average with some rain saturated areas. Price on Golf Now was somewhat higher than other courses I have played of same quality.
