Good challenge

Much better than the Harbor course, which is unnecessarily narrow and has postage stamp greens. The Links course is a proper course, representing a proper challenge of your golfing skills.

Not an Exclusive Experience

If you like to play in a venue where between holes you drive through construction sites, commercial parking areas where payloaders, bulldozers occupy beat up parking lots and chain link fences this is your place. The fairways were fine, the greens tiny but acceptable condition, but everything away from the hole itself detracts from your experience. The roadways for carts are a deteriorated mess, you’re driving with or against real traffic over highway bridges. To hold yourself out as a first class experience is dishonest at. Least. But there aren’t a lot of choices on IOP, so if you want convenience this is one of your two choices. Also, although my greens fee included driving range privileges, the range was closed for maintenance and I was not offered any compensation. Also know that there is NO DRIVING RANGE at the Harbor course, you have to drive your car to the Links course if you want to hit balls before playing, then drive back to Harbor to play. Not an ideal set up and not disclosed on the website.my 5 star rating for pace of play was because no one was out there.I was able to go out 90 minutes before my tee time (I was there early to hit balls on the closed driving range at the Links course.)PS do not attempt to walk this course!

Harbor course

The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. The starter was knowledgeable about the course and conditions. The fairways were perfect along with the greens. Great layout with good views

Good not great

We played the Links on our first visit to Charleston. We had some not great weather which may have colored my opinion of the course a bit. The course was in good condition, very tight. The few holes on the water were very pretty, but overall I think too expensive for a less than memorable course.

We played Stono Ferry on John’s Island the next day and my husband and I were far more impressed for half the price.

Inaccurate description

Course was great, and staff was friendly. Only bad thing to say is about the posting on golf now. It says it comes with practice balls, a meal, and a drink in the included price which is inaccurate. We chose this deal because of what was supposed to be included and felt cheated by the description.

A fun and challenging yet, scoreable course which has good tee options for all levels.

The course condition was outstanding and way better than other courses in the area that seemed to have suffered more from the recent flooding. The greens were very well manicured.

I will be back soon!
