73.1
134

Greens: Bermuda

Ranked among the top private clubs in South Carolina, Secession is a walking-only, caddie-required club on Port Royal Sound. P.B. Dye's design emphasizes strategic angles over length, with marsh views on nearly every hole. The men's-golf-only culture and no-tee-time policy give it a distinctive character.

Walking-only. Caddies mandatory. Consistently ranked in Golf Digest America's 100 Greatest.

Pro Tip
Wind off Port Royal Sound flips club selection. Play the wind, not the yardage — locals routinely take two extra clubs into the ocean-facing holes.

131

Greens: Bermuda

Original Fripp Island course, designed by George Cobb in 1964. Ocean Point runs along the Atlantic with marsh, dunes, and pine as recurring hazards. Six holes touch the ocean. Recent renovations updated the greens and drainage while preserving Cobb's classic routing.

Six holes with direct ocean views. Wildlife (deer, alligators) part of the experience.

Pro Tip
Late afternoon rounds catch the Atlantic breeze — plan tee times to have the wind at your back on the closing ocean holes.

138

Greens: Bermuda

Davis Love III's design threads through Fripp's maritime forest, tidal marsh, and lagoons. Considered the more strategic of the two Fripp courses, with narrower fairways and more forced carries than Ocean Point. Alligators are common; carry-yardages matter more than raw distance.

Davis Love III's design signature: elevated tees, framed doglegs, water on 14 holes.

Pro Tip
The marsh crossings look shorter than they play. Trust the yardage book, take the extra club, and never short-side yourself over water.

100 Dataw Dr, St. Helena Island, SC 29920 • Tom Fazio • Est. 1983
6,594

72.4
135

Greens: Bermuda

Fazio's Cotton Dike opened Dataw Island's golf program in 1983 and remains the flagship. Set on former Sea Island cotton plantation land, the course uses tidal marsh, live oaks, and antebellum ruins as design features. Cotton Dike hosts most Dataw member tournaments.

Antebellum ruins along the fairways. Frequently ranked among the top private courses in the Lowcountry.

Pro Tip
Fazio put the trouble in front of the greens on the par-5s. Lay up to a comfortable wedge yardage instead of forcing the second shot — you'll score better than the scratch player who goes for every green.

Greens: Bermuda

Arthur Hills routed Morgan River along the tidal river that gives it its name. More open than Cotton Dike, with longer forced carries and dramatic elevation changes near the closing holes. Members typically call it the tougher of Dataw's two courses.

Long carries off the tee. Wind exposure higher than Cotton Dike.

Pro Tip
Two-tiered greens are the Hills signature — always check which tier the pin is on before club selection. A back-pin miss short can leave a 40-foot uphill putt.

Callawassie Island — Old Tabby Links

Greens: Bermuda

Callawassie is a 27-hole private community with three nine-hole layouts (Palmetto, Magnolia, Dogwood) that can be played in three combinations. Tom Fazio designed the original 18 with Jack Nicklaus consulting on greens. The Old Tabby Links designation refers to Callawassie's history as a Sea Island cotton and tabby-lime plantation.

27 holes routed in three loops. Community includes tabby ruins from the plantation era.

Pro Tip
Ask the pro shop which two nines are set up for the day. The Dogwood nine plays the shortest but has the toughest greens — score-savers routinely make it their finishing loop.

Greens: Bermuda

18-hole course on Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island. Set along the Beaufort River with live oaks and marsh views. Access requires military ID or being the guest of an eligible player. One of the more accessible affordable rounds in the Beaufort area for those with base access.

Access-restricted (military base). Gate check required.

Pro Tip
The 12th and 13th holes run along the Beaufort River — bring extra sleeves; wind off the water is deceiving. Consistent low ball flight scores better than high fades here.
