“Longest 6400 yard course I have ever played. Super fun course with a great variety of holes. Push up greens on some holes that require precise wedge shots. When greens are fast and firm this course will give the best players trouble with errant shots. Bring your short game, if you miss left, right or long it will be a difficult up and down."

“Coore/Crenshaw design in the South Carolina low country that encourages walking, The course features small, elevated, sloping greens that are its main defense against par. Staff and members were very welcoming. Definitely play here if offered the opportunity."

“Biggest feature on this course is back to front slope greens with several false front. Area in front of greens soft due to run off and therefore not best for ground game approach."

Review
“Chechesee Creek is an excellent minimalist Coore-Crenshaw design located near Hilton Head SC. One of the more relaxing and natural courses I've seen, this course winds through the lowlands with an excellent layout. Relatively straightforward tee to green, Chechesee gets very difficult when you start missing these elevated greens and are left intimidating up-and-downs. This is also an excellent place to hang after golf with its own signature cocktail - the "Creek Tea."
