Santee National Golf Club
About
Santee National Golf Club possesses all of the charms of the Carolina Lowcountry but it is also nicely contrasted with highland terrain. The course sprawls across rolling hills covered with moss-draped live oaks that demand accuracy. Both the scenery and the challenges continue with pristine white sand bunkers that stand out against the lush greens. There are also five sparkling lakes throughout that come into play on several holes. The front nine is wide open but the course narrows as you move onto the back nine and it also becomes more wooded. It is a tough golf course but more forgiving than it seems. As the only Golf Digest 4-star rated course in the area, Santee National has a longstanding reputation with locals and it is also popular with visitors.

Windy but still ok
Golf at Santee National. Bob in pro shop was nice and got us out early. Carts in really good shape. Buildings seemed really new. Snack bar was good. Golf course in good shape. Greens very fast. Fairways firm and good lies. Some of tees a little thin for grass. Not mowed down and sanded in a number of cases. No Marshall and pace a little slow, about 4 hr 15 minutes for round. As a twosome, that meant a lot of waiting. Nice mix of water and trees to make it interesting. Front side is more open than back. Par 3s are pretty long and 5 pars are shorter. fun round of golf. would definitely play it again.
Southern Hospitality is Real!!
Staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Course was in beautiful shape and loved the overall layout. Will be back!
Great conditions
Great shape for this time of year considering amount of recent rainfall. Nice practice facilities. New carts and new bunker sand!
Awesome
This is probably my favorite course to play in the low country area easy to manage for a high handicapper.
Road Trip 2023
Although is was CPO from heavy rain, the course is in great shape. Tees and greens are awesome
Fun Course
Santee National is a fun easy to play course. The greens were in excellent condition as well as the bunkers. The fairways were dormant but playable from anywhere. I stopped to play here on my trip between Charleston and Charlotte and would do so again.
Santee National
Greens are outstanding; quick and true. Pace of play on front 9 was quick; there was 1 foursome that was very slow that held up play on the back 9. New bunkers with real golf course sand are excellent. Great value for the money! There really aren’t any food options worth talking about
A little Chilly to start
Started off cold But great course that allowed both the weather and Golfers to Warm up
Great condition and fun layout Used Golf Now for a Hot Deal so it was a super value
I will return again and again
Mid December Golf
Just another great day of Golf If you have never been the first 9 is relaxing and open. thye back 9 becomes more challenging
Great cousre
Santee National
Greens are excellent; bunker redesign good but too much sand in bunkers; pace of play on front 9 was good; but 1 slow foursome on the back 9 med pace of play way too slow.
Great value
Go to play this is causing potential injuries after a little rain in the morning. What is the middle of December so not a busy day at all. All staff could not have been friendlier. The lady in the snack store, Cindy, I believe, is a true gem.
Good course, single, little short, more Dulcolax than a pound. Greens roll true
Nice course
Great value. Golf course in nice shape. Greens we’re fast . This course was fun to play. Wooded, water.
Wide fairways . Clubhouse staff friendly .
Liked it so much played again .
Excellent Value
The course was well maintained. There were only a few people on the course so we had an enjoyable pace. The front 9 was wide open so it was a great way to get warmed up for the Back 9 that offers more challenging hole
Will definitely go back. Yes! I would highly recommend the Santee national Golf course experience
First Round Here
My son and I played the course for the first time this November. It was a little chilly but very enjoyable. The course was in great shape, traps were very clean, staff was very welcoming, and the clubhouse had everything we needed. Definitely will be back!
Just pure
Really nice course, good grass. Easier on the front and the challenge picks up on the back.
