Great time

My wife and I were paired up with a single. Very nice guy, on his honeymoon. Course was in great shape. Enjoyed the layout. Pace of play was excellent.

Because of COVID, Restaurant/bar closed. Halfway house had eats, drinks. Tuna Salad has a ton of salt! Could not eat it.

First time playing this course...#10 is a tricky hole!

I was very pleased with the conditions and the layout. Had a great time and my only birdie came on the par 3 18th.
Greens were very nice and plenty fast.

Worth The Money.

This course was worth every penny. We paid about $90 for the 2pm tee time and loved it. Awesome views, course layout is fun, and challenging. Will be playing again next time I am in the area.

Best Public Course in Charleston

Played the Links Course and have to say it is in spectacular shape. Everything about this experience was great. The staff is friendly and helpful, the course is immaculate and our twosome played 18 holes in a little over 2-1/2 hours on a Saturday afternoon and we felt like we were taking our time!

The course itself is mix of everything. You feel safe taking driver off the tee because of the wider fairways, but there are lots of well protected, tucked away greens that make it interesting to say the least. Add in a strong ocean breeze and it's one of the more challenging and fun courses to play in all of Charleston.

I usually play at Charleston National but I'm seriously considering making this my home course. If you live here you should add this course to the rotation, and if you're just passing through this is a must play while you're here!

Great Course

I consider this the best course available to the public in Charleston. The course was in fantastic condition, and offers a good variety of holes. IMO this course is slightly easier than the Harbor course, but can still gobble up golf balls if not hitting straight off the tee. The finishing holes are picturesque. I wish I would have had the chance to play 18 as a par 4 before they were forced to shorten it to a par 3.

Superb

Our group battled 20 mph winds day we played. Greens are immaculate.
Being a former asst super at several
courses....I look at everything. Only downside was 18th hole is a par 3. Mother Nature and ocean are the reason. No worries. Beautiful views and from tee to green very consistent. Hats of to the grounds crew and super. Itching to play again in less than 20-25 mph winds

Sanded Greens

Love the course. But wish we would’ve known about the sanded greens ahead of time. A discount would’ve been appropriate.

Disappointment in Wild Dunes

Folks were not friendly, the so called “golf ambassador” was more like the “ golf tyrant” ...
The day was ruined because we were” to slow” and could not enjoy the beauty of the course ...
The only person that was both personable and displayed any form of Southern hospitality was the cart lady, Molly ... She was a hard working young lady who displayed a wonderful attitude ...
Won’t waste my hard earned money here again that’s for sure ...

Beautiful course

What an unbelievable experience playing this course. The scenery and layout were unrivaled, especially as you come up on 15-18. The course was in great shape, staff very friendly and helpful. Well worth the cost to experience this course. Watch out for gators!

Great layout

Course was in great shape. Greens were a bit slow today but probably due to rain earlier in the morning.

Course review

It's was my first time playing the course.
I'm an average golfer and my overall thought on the course is you are paying for the destination more so than the course.
While the course was in great shape, you are only on the ocean for 3 holes., I would have been extreme unsatisfied if I had paid full price of $181 for a morning tee time. Instead I paid $95 for twilight (Easter week).
Much more reasonable in my humble opinion.
The pace of play was just fine. No one crawling up on you.
Beer pricing was a bit high ($60.00 for a 12 pack before tip) but they do give you 2 waters in a cooler.
There were plenty of gators to see as well.
