Play it

The course meanders around a couple neighborhoods and a river but it should not be missed.

Really good conditions, the greens were consistent and smooth though a bit on the slow side.

The holes are challenging with some great green protections.

Play this course, for the price it should not be missed.

Second time this week - we had to replay this!

A group of friends and I are in town for a week and after playing this once on Tuesday we cam back on Thursday. Such a great layout and challenge. We wish the carts had GPS the first time, but after playing once it was no problem figuring out where the holes were headed.

We definitely recommend this to anyone, One of our group played the gold tees, the other the white tees - perfect challenge for our skill levels.

Give it a go

Beaufort has some very interesting holes that will challenge your shot making.

The greens were in great shape though a little slower than I’m used to. They were nice and smooth and consistent.

It’s a must play if in the area.

Challenging course, especially in the wind

Group of 4, 3 of us never playing there, had a great time. Layout had lots of water and sand to negotiate and the greens were rolling consistently.

One small issue is that the scorecard does not have hole layout and there was no yardage book, so I had to use an app to see the layout.

Lots of long drives between greens to next tee on the front would make for a really long walk.

Can’t wait to play here again!

Tons of rain in the area but the course was in very playable shape if you kept it in the fairways!

Greens were in great shape. Rolled fast and true.

Would love to get back when things dry out!

Very windy but aimed at the center of the greens and trusted my putter.

Great Course even for a winter round

Weather was a factor as winds added to the challenge of playing a dormant wet track. Always a fun round whether winter or summer.

Very nice facility

Very nice course and facility. Staff was very friendly. Carts are new. Only complaint is the wind. Sometimes tough to putt as you had to brace against the wind. We'll play it again hopefully on a day that is less windy.

Excellent Course

It was my first time playing this terrific course. I was greeted by two friendly and helpful staff, one of whom took me to my cart and explained where everything was. There were free range balls on offer on a well-maintained range that offered numerous targets and turf to hit off. The course is a serious layout. I played from the gold tees which were apparently 5800 yards but played more like 6100 in the cold and the wind.

The only downside is that if you have mobility issues as I do it is a tough walk. In fact, it damned near killed me. I should have checked before I went out to see if they had blue flags and could turn off the automatic shutoff when you venture beyond the cart signs.

In any case, I thought the course was terrific. It was in great shape, especially the greens, and I enjoyed the layout, even though I found it pretty tough. I definitely recommend that anyone in the area play here at least once. You won’t be disappointed.

Great condition

Greens were in great shape. Staff was friendly. Tee boxes and fairways were in good condition for this time of year. Complimentary range balls was a nice touch as well.
