Perfect Dayton and for golf

Call it luck of the draw but it was a day when every thing just went right. The weather was perfect, no wind, sunshine, mid sixties. The course was a little wet in spots but manageable and otherwise perfect. We were able to play at our pace without ever having to wait or feel pushed. The greens were medium/fast, in great shape and rolled true. I know I played way above my pay grade hitting fairways and greens with such pinpoint accuracy that I had to pinch myself from time to time. I obviously left with a smile and a memorable round of golf. Just wonder why I can’t play like this every time.

Great course !

The course was in very nice conditions except for two or three greens were just a little rough in spots. The greens were very fast and true. Played the round in 3 hours and 10 minutes. The staff was great.

Tip Top

Played here as a part of our Santee package and were not disappointed.

Course was in fantastic shape. With the exception of a few tee boxes that needed a bit of work (Bermuda + Shade tough to manage), tee-to-green was great. Greens rolled smooth and had minimal imperfections. We were able to roll around and play another 9+ after finishing our AM round.

Santee National will continue to get the nod from our group each trip.

Great Golf Course

Player the course in late September. Conditions are excellent. There is plenty of challenge on this course but not too difficult, very playable course. Bermuda greens are tricky to read, must pay attention to the grain. Greens are excellent and receptive to incoming shots. Highly recommend this course. You will not be disappointed.

Unique course layout

I have 4 dogs, so my joke for the course is that I'm sure there are more dog legs on the course than in my own home. I was surprised the par 3's didn't have dog legs. But seriously, it was a great course. It isnt long, but its personality presents it's own challenges. The greens were in great shape, good speed, and the fringes were puttable. Overall, it was a great course and I would beyond a shadow of a doubt play again.

Great Course

Very hilly, be prepared to adjust yardages to compensate for elevation changes. Well conditioned, greens rolled true and fast. We played 36 holes and I never had to roll my ball in the fairway to get out of a bad spot.

Good round. Good course.

Santee National remains one of the most affordable and we'll maintained courses around.. there are new golf carts. All the fairways were nice and green. The greens were in good shape

The restrooms were clean. The bridge on hole 10 needs to be replaced. Otherwise it was a good golf outting.

Greens were not in good shape

we played all week in the Santee area. Have played this course many times, always in mid-late April. The greens are always iffy. The greens at the other area courses were in much better shape. Lots of poa annua coming in especially on a few of the greens. #9 seemed to be the worst. Probably the best fairways we played and the practice area and other amenities are the best in the area.

Also, there were two pins that were cut in terrible locations. #'s 7 and 15 you could not keep a putt on the green if it did not hit the hole.

Nice fairways, otherwise meh.

Pro: nice fairways, that’s about it.

Con: pace of play (2-3 groups on each par 3), greens were fast and true, but looked dead. Traps were water filled holes (no recent rain). Snack shop lady was the rudest golf staff I have ever encountered!

Overall, poor value for even $ 45.

Great Value

Had Santee National on the agenda again for our annual golf trip and loved the value. Course was in pretty solid shape with a lot of it still coming out of dormancy. Fairways were top notch. Greens were extremely quick and some unfortunate pin positions made a few holes a bit comical.

Santee National is always a great 1st day course as part of a package deal and we'll likely be coming back again next year.
