Golf Club At Wescott Plantation - Black Robin Course
About
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 course but
It's a nice course but the pace of play was terrible. The starter is at the club house and tells you which of the 3 nine Hole courses you will play. When we get to the tee box there is already 3 groups waiting and 2 on the hole. It took 6-1/2 hrs to play 18 holes! Not once did we see a ranger and only saw the cart girl once.
The course it self is nice. Staff is friendly and the club house is very nice.
Not overly difficult but it will challenge you.
Not sure if I'll play there again just because of pace.
Great value course
Course allows for solid rotation with (3) 9 hole courses so wear and tear are kept down. For the price it's always a solid play.
One thing to note this clubhouse is THE center for all the homes in the community and as such there is always a lot going on at the clubhouse, usually involving kids and their parents. If you are easily bothered by kids being around and just being kids (i.e, being noisy at times) maybe you should look around.
Greens are well taken care of during the off season, kept green (probably paint) but they rolled well even after some rain earlier this week. Drainage is about par for this area, if it's drenched the night before, probably a good idea to wait a couple of days or it'll be cart path only and the course will be pretty wet.
This course is one of our regulars with the group I play in. Usually a can't miss for the value on Golf Now.
Golf
It was a nice course but it was very slow. We did not have a chance to complete our 18 holes of golf.
Beautiful course...Great experience!!
Me and my brother had an 11:20 tee time, and arrived at the course around 10:00. We hit the driving range for about 30 minutes then ask the guy in the pro shop could we start our round early, and he agreed since the course was wide open for play. The layout was beautiful and not overly challenging, however undulating greens created a challenge in the short game. The greens were rather fast, but it had rained for the past two days previous to us playing. Overall it's a great course and the staff was friendly. I would definitely play Wescott again!!
WORTH THE PRICE
GREAT PRO SHOP STAFF ( LINDSAY ) SHE
ALWAYS KNOWS YOUR NAME .
This is a good course
I have played this course several times and love that it is 27 holes so you get a different round just about every time you play
great course
The staff is friendly and the course is great. 3 different 9 hoke courses and all offer a different experience. I will play there again.
Really enjoyed playing this course.
Really enjoyed playing this course. Not too hard, not too easy. should be enjoyable for all skill levels.
course is in great condition
played the forward senior tees.
used the driver only 4 times
course is fairly open so missed hits have a chance
greens are very fast
Fun course
The course is in good shape, greens are pretty fast as usual. Overall good value will be playing the course more often
Wescott 10/14
Good day except the kitchen wasn't operating completely. VERY limited choices for a sandwich.
Great course Bad weather
This is the second time that I have played the course. The course overall was in good shape. Greens, bunkers were in good shape. It had been raining for almost a week solid so the course was soaked. The fairways were soaked with lots of standing water. In spite of the water I will definitely play the course again.
Well maintained despite the abundance of rain lately
Although the course was still quite wet (cart path only), we enjoyed the layout and the conditions of the greens. The course is well-managed and the staff are extremely professional and customer-oriented. From the head pro to the pro shop staff, starters and grounds crew, everybody was super-freindly and aimed to please. This all contributed to an enjoyable round of golf.
Better luck next time.
Played at Wescott again and as always I love this course. The faculty is usually top notch but today must have been an off day for the kitchen and bar staff. Very poor service and not once did we see the cart lady on the course like they said we would. But over all a great place for golfing.
Great course. Rough too high though.
Fairways and greens were fantastic. The tough was way to high though. Very difficult to find and hit out of.
This course has it all
Every type of warm up. Driving range, putting green, chipping area, sand traps. Fairways and greens are in super shape. 3 9 hole layout. Played 18 in under 4 hours. Great round. Other 3 players in our group agree and will play Wescott again.
greens
Greens have come along nicely now. Always enjoy my bread and butter golf course. Even good for a beginner such as best friend whom came out and played. He enjoyed it and had a great time.
Great course
Great course relative to the cost. Well maintained. Definitely will play there again.
Great layout
Very friendly staff, great for pre-round lunch or post round diner.
Course in great shape, Greens roll fast and true.
The pace was a little slow
Excellent value for the money
The whole facility is well equipped and well maintained. Typical layout for the area but with less water hazards.
