Pine Forest, SC
Pine Forest Country Club: Pine Forest comprises two very good out-and-back nine-hole loops, and as the name implies, tall, mature pine trees line the way on most holes. The pleasantly undulating fairways tend to get distinctly mogully as you approach the often elevated greens. The greens themselves are typically fast and undulating, several having at least two or sometimes three tiers - prepare to have your putting skills thoroughly tested. In keeping with traditional links golf course design, the holes coming back are usually parallel to (but well-spaced from) those heading out, between them is a liberal sprinkling of majestic pines and a pine straw carpet beneath. With real estate kept a good distance from the course, along the sides of these "pairs of holes", the layout here retains a wonderfully natural feel, with one excellent and picturesque hole following on from another. Generally good-width fairways will permit reasonably free use of the big timber in your bag, but beware the many small water-hazards; some are well within driving distance, others lend additional protection around several greens. With its excellent standard of upkeep and pleasantly rolling contours (created from essentially flat terrain), Pine Forest is a wonderfully enjoyable course, and one that will thoroughly test your game, especially your short game, and most especially your putting.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends when a limited number of tee-times are available.

Situated on a pine-forested ridge, Summerville was first inhabited in the late 1700's as Charlestonians and other inhabitants of the Lowcountry sought respite from the summer heat, mosquitoes and disease. From May to September plantation families along the nearby Ashley River and other coastal areas, headed for higher elevation to live temporarily in the forest colony, soon dubbed Summerville.
