Surprisingly good

Course was in great shape. Fairways and green were in great condition and well maintained. Driving range was lacking slightly; however nothing that would deter me from coming back. Highly recommend this course to anyone visiting the area

Santee National

Close to I-95 for the traveler. Can't miss course if you have the opportunity to play it. Conditions right now were good since it the dormant time of the season, the fairways are overseeded with growing grass but the fairway lies are still tight. Greens rolled great at a quickish pace but super fast. Bunkers compact allowing easy outs. Course has a open look with wide fairways, I played the White tees and drove the ball well today practically in the middle of each fairway right at the 150 or inside it. They have a back tee for the long hitters and two more forward tees. Many doglegs so placement of your tee ball helps. Each hole is different. Par fives I don't have the juice to reach them in two but three out of four I was close the the green in 2 and was pitching for the third. Overall a nice experience I would not hesitate to play again if the chance arises.

Came here from Canada cold and snow. So the course is in great shape greens and fairways, don’t stray away from the fairway. Book your own trip because you will do better combining Hotel and golf with tee off.com than using theirs.

Fun Place to Play

Very much recommend this golf course. With the exception of one tee box, this course is in excellent shape right now. The greens are lush, but were just a little slow for my liking. The layout is fantastic, my group loved this course the best of the 3 in Santee. You can't go wrong playing here. Such variety of holes on this course.

Great course but needs a ranger

Played the front nine is less than 1.5 hrs but hit a brick wall on the back, took close to 3 hrs to play. Course is in great shape, but slow play killed it for us

Course in excellent shape -- great value

The course was in great shape and you couldn't beat the price - $20. FW's were very lush and closely mowed. Greens were smooth and running relatively fast for the heat, i would judge a 9. The course is flat, but there are a lot of doglegs to break up the monotony. Green complexes were fairly easy, and flat but there were alot of subtle breaks. I played at 6900 yds. the net set of tees is around 6100 which is a big difference

Perfect day

Played here last year for the first time and decided to try it again. Weather was perfect and so was the course. Greens rolled nicely. The rest of the course was in great shape also, some traps were hard pack as are most courses anymore. Pace of play was under 4 hours. I understand August is usually slow in SC, but the weather was perfect, low humidity and not much wind.

Will definitely play it again when I'm in the area.

Loved it

Place was very nice to play. Challenging back tees that made the course difficult for advanced players. Course was in great shape and the greens were rolling true.

Would enjoy playing there again

Nice layout.

Course was nice, liked the layout, well maintained.

We were a twosome, teed off only 10 minutes after our starting time. Pace of play was incredibly slow. No ranger, no notice of lack of drinking water until number 7. Refreshment cart did appear on the scene around #5. Gnats were terrible and using "OFF" did very little to keep them away. Santee is a nice place. I'd play there again if in the area.

Super layout!

Of the 3 area courses we played in our golf package, Santee National was our favorite. It's a very pretty golf course and a great value. The course is in great shape and it's fair for the average and high handicappers. The fairways were very nice and most were plenty wide enough. The Bermuda greens were a little bumpy but we were told they are scheduled for "yearly" aeration in a couple of weeks. This course needs to be on your list to play in Santee.

Well Maintained & Fun

Rude starter (gave me a hard time adding a second player to my tee time even though I was a onesome playing behind 3 4somes). After that, everything was great. Course was in great condition especially near the greens. Plenty of chances for fades and draws. Reachable par 5s make for great scoring opportunities. Only hit 1 bunker (thank goodness) but it was the way a bunker should be. Greens were quite fast compared to my normal course.

I carry a 16 handicap and managed a respectable 82.

For $20, I'd play this course weekly!
