One of the best values in the area

The course was in great shape and the staff, as always were very welcoming and friendly. This is the one of the best public courses in the area. Most of the public courses are way overpriced in the Charleston area and not in very good condition. This one has a fair price with overall good condition conditions would recommend this course to anyone in the Charleston area.

Fun, Challenging, But Fair Course in Great Condition

I love Santee National. It's an hour from Charleston, but worth the drive. Friendly staff, great value. I'm never disappointed. The Par 3s from the tips are fabulous.

Great course and also in tip top condition.

I’d recommend Santee National to anyone who loves to play golf but wants something that’s going to challenge them as well. The greens are always in great shape as they were again today 12-27-2025 when my uncle and I played there. Highly recommend Santee at any time of the year.

The course

The course was great and pace of play was excellent. One big downside was the bugs/bats the carts and the course were covered with them everywhere. Felt like you had them all over you on every shot

South Carolina’s Finest

Santee National Golf Club is one of South Carolina’s finest courses. Greens are always true and the challenging course plays fair. Not far from Charleston or Columbia and lots of great winter golf for snowbirds!

Elevated low country

Traveling home to Florida from a work trip in North Carolina, all the signs pertain to Golf in the area got me tweaking to get some holes in. This was my second time playing this course, I previously played it a little less than a year ago. I did not make a tee- time and just showed up as a single and had the entire course to myself. The Pro shop attendant, who was a little bit younger than me(I’m 40) was extremely friendly and helpful. Provide me with another course guide which I had brought with me from the last round here. The greens had been recently sanded and punched but my initial disappointment vanished quickly. The course is a mixture of long par 3s and short par 4s. As I said earlier, I had the course entirely to myself. All the holes are pretty unique from one another and provide equally unique challenges to avoid. Some holes feel like a mountain course, some holes feel like a park style golf course with a nice mixture of wooded areas and water hazards. If you hit a driver you better hit your line and trajectory. 3 wood requires a touch less precision of the tee but will add difficulty to your approach shot. You don’t have to be long to play from the tips on the par 4s but you better have a 230 club on the par 3s. The first time I played this of course it was later in the day and overcast. This time it was midday, sunny and visually felt like a different course. Not many houses along the course to hit. Don’t be long on approach shots. I took my time but was able to get 18 holes in and plenty of lollygagging in 2 1/2 hours. I deducted 1 star due to sand and punches.
