“Excellent links style, Gary Player designed course in the South Carolina foothills. The course is flat with many bunkers and waste areas to define the hole routings. The greens are very well maintained and very fast making putting chipping challenging. Further, several greens are on plateaus. No two holes are the same as the yardages are quite mixed. It is quite rare to see such a links style course in an inland location."

“The Cliffs at Mountain Park is one of the few walkable courses in a region fully of hilly golf. Gary Player's team did a very good job crafting an interesting course that's got some great natural features combined with a good variety of holes. Definitely exceeded expectations!"

“This is one of best Player courses in the USA. Built in mountain valley and excellent use of small river that runs through the property. Minimal elevation changes but lots of large sand bunkers, mounding, and big greens. Conditions excellent and fast firm greens. Fun to play."
