Kiva Dunes

This has to be one of my favorite courses I’ve ever played. It has a similar vibe and feel to it as the ocean course at Kiawah with the openness and Oceanside sand dune. Pictures really don’t do it justice, it’s difficult to capture its feel in an image. Staff was incredibly friendly, food was great. Even with packed course pace of play was great, finished 18 in under 4 hours with many groups of 4 ahead of our 4some. Course offers good challenges and a unique layout. The only slight knock against it I would say is at a course of this level I would expect GPS carts. But they do give you yardage books with your scorecard which I enjoyed more than using GPS. It’s a long drive out but would recommend Kiva over anything else in the area.

Nice course, nice layout and good condition.

I’ve played many courses this nice and nicer for $60

First timer and fell for the hype….its not all that.

Well maintained course. Excellent greens , good fairways n tee boxes. Carts had extra plush leather bench seats and no GPS. Course clues by starter were helpful. Tried the grill n bar afterwards which had a nice view of green 18. Decent food and service.

Course is always in good shape and greens are always great/fast.

We got there they came and got our bags put them

In the carts promptly and were super helpful. The Marshall was on top of pace of play big fan of that. Really pretty course

Was a single and was paired with a twosome (members). Great guys and they made the round fun. Was here on vacation and the weather was terrific. Course was in great shape and staff at check in was very friendly.. Was originally scheduled to play at 928 and checked in and that was confirmed. After warming up some on the range the starter came up and asked me my name and then he told me I was going off at 920. I told him I was at 928 and he grumbled that he had me at 920. I said no problem I can go off early, but that I reserved 928. I dont think he liked to have his God complex challenged. I wrapped up my range session and went to the first tee and have a great round. Never saw the starter again, which was nice.

Very friendly staff. Course is in really great shape. Nice fairways and very good greens. Definitely will play it again.

One of the best courses I've played .It was a great experience!

Course was in amazing condition compared to what other courses look like currently. First time playing a course that cost over a hundred to play. Did not disappoint was worth every penny. Would highly recommend lives up to its top reviews.

Nice course , staff was very pleasant, ranger came by and explained why the back 9 would be playing slower, the greens had been aerated recently but by another week will be in excellent condition. I will play this course again.

Excellent course. Great staff I enjoy the mix of water grasses, trees and rough. Makes one think. Not easy but super fun.

We had big expectations for our 1st time at Kiva Dunes. The staff and amenities were terrific. Pace of play was a bit slow, really got backed up on the back 9. The ranger tried to move things along, but it was a long hot day.

The course routing is a bit generic, with only a few really good holes. No bad holes, but nothing that really stood out. Was hoping for better views. For the price, there are better tracts in the area.

4star in lieu of course being recently aerated. Staff alerted us beforehand so no surprises with that issue. Great time had!

Loved this layout and resort feel. I came to Kiva as a guest staying down the road with family. They were fantastic. They meet at the car and help with the clubs, range is included and cart is included which are huge perks. The grass and overall quality were great. Not a single issue here. Thanks for the great course Kiva!

Tee time was 730, it was overcast but never rained. Course was in fantastic shape! No GPS on carts so bring your own. Round was 4:15, pretty good for a resort course. Greens were perfect.
