Good condition for early spring.

This was a good course for the time of year. Fairways and greens in great condition. Our only problem was with the very slow pace of play. We waited on almost every hole for a significant amount of time, with often two groups waiting on each tee box. First saw a marshal on the back nine who expressed his frustration at the slow pace of play but was not able to change anything to help!

A fun challenge

Excellent layout with a chance for the good to average golfer to score well. Yet, plenty of challenge.
Very pleasant scenery away from noise and housing.
Would play this course many time if lived in the area and will for certain plain again when traveling in the area.

Nice Layout

This was our 1st time at this course. The folks in the pro shop were super, very accommodating. We were paired with another 2some and went off earlier than our original tee time. The area had just received some heavy rain, and the course was very wet, hence carts on path. The weather was beautiful, but play was slow due to the above conditions. Under normal conditions this course would be most enjoyable.

Great Fun

This course is a lot of fun to play and really just take it's beauty in. I am an accomplished golfer and the course is a challenge from the tips. I also have met people from all over the world that has proved to be a great touch. The staff really goes out of there way to make your experience an exceptional one. Hole 15 is a real gem, a dogleg right par 4 with a green that has a lot of slope from back to front. Tip: keep it below the hole! You got to play here if you get a chance!

Nice course to play

This is an excellent golf course to play. The greens putt really good and there are nice fairways to play from. The staff is very friendly and got us right out to play. There are nice restrooms located at convenient places on the golf course. There are some easy holes and some very challenging holes to play on this golf course. I will return to play here again.

Good Santee golf.

This is a relatively conventional course among the lakes and pines. It is pleasant and well enough designed, but fairways were not fully mown, with tufts of grass (the season?), giving a slightly scruffy look. Greens were fine.

Very enjoyable round of golf

Outstanding golf now value. Greens rolled very well and the course offered a good challenge. Front 9 might be a little easier than back 9. This would a definite return course for me.

this course was in great shape. The greens were great.

The staff were very friendly. The price was fair. I felt the pace of play was okay considering this was Saturday afternoon. I think the course was in great shape. The rough very thick and tuff to get out of as it should be this time of year. Staying in the fairway a big plus. The greens were perfect speed wise at least what I like. Not lightening fast, nor slow. The greens were consistent from one hole to the next. I will definitely go back and I will recommend this course to my friends.

Golf Now made the day..

The course is only ten minutes from our resort. Computer was having internet connection problem, so after driving over to the course to see if they had computer available to make reservation, they did not and their price for out of state customers was too high. Went back to resort and called Golf Now . The customer service was excellent, not only did she get me a reservation at the original golf course, she called the course and advised that I was running late. The staff at Santee National was very hospitable and sent me on to the first tee for a great round of golf at a very excellent golf course.

Great shape, great price.

Real nice course. All but 1-2 greens were perfect. Fairways were nice. Course is mainly open in the front 9, then weaves through the woods in the back.

Good

This course was in great condition. Minus a few tee boxes not being up to par I really enjoyed playing here. The greens were emaculent they were soft but rolled really well and rolled true. Was very pleased playing here except for the pace of play. Well worth the drive from Charleston to come visit and play.

Interesting change from out to in.

Well maintained. I think this course is a definite challenge if you do not hit the fairways. I am talking about the grass length and type. It is really hard to recover in most spots. Make sure you hit the fairways coming in. Definitely will recommend this course. Very, very nice greens and fair pin placements.

Great Layout & Friendly Staff

Booked a Hot Deal on GolfNow while at home in FL. My wife and I like to stop over in Santee on our way to the beach in Nagshead NC. I was a single and was paired with a nice couple from Charleston. The course is in excellent condition and a very nice layout. Super friendly professional golf staff.

Very Well Maintained Golf Course

We needed to find a course close to I-95 so we did some research and found Santee National. We read the reviews and decided to try the course. We were not disappointed, except that it was very wet when we played and was cart path only. The greens were a bit "furry" but we figured it was because they weren't able to cut them due to the 7-plus inches of rain they had received in the past few weeks. The fairways and approach areas were well maintained and the two-tiered greens made for some challenging putts. The only drawback was that the tee boxes are extremely spaced out, but this was not a deal breaker in the least. We are glad we chose to play Santee National.
