Questions and Answers ## Charleston Golf FAQ Common questions about golf in the Charleston area, answered. - What are the best public golf courses near Charleston SC? - Are there any famous-designer golf courses in Charleston? Yes — Pete Dye's Ocean Course at Kiawah Island is one of the most famous championship layouts in America (1991 Ryder Cup, 2012 & 2021 PGA Championship). Seth Raynor designed the historic Charleston Municipal Golf Course in 1929. - What is the longest golf course near Charleston? - Are there junior golf programs in Charleston SC? The First Tee of Greater Charleston also serves the region. - What are green fees at Charleston area courses? HERECharleston’s golf desk covers every course, every tournament, and every story relevant to golf in Charleston County and the South Carolina Lowcountry (Lowcountry). Charleston is one of the most storied small golf towns in America — home to **Palmetto Golf Club** (founded 1892, the oldest course in South Carolina, redesigned by Alister MacKenzie in 1932, three years before he completed Augusta National) and **Charleston Golf Club** (1912, one of the oldest public courses in the state). Coverage spans the private layouts (Palmetto), the semi-private clubs (Houndslake Country Club, Midland Valley Country Club, Cedar Creek Golf Club, The River Golf Club in nearby North Augusta), and the historic public access at Charleston Golf Club. Tournament coverage tracks the SC Golf Association events hosted at Houndslake, the Palmetto Golf Club Masters Week invitation events every April, SC Junior PGA events, Carolinas PGA pro-am stops, Carolinas Golf Association amateur championships at regional venues, and the SC High School League golf calendar for Charleston County programs (South Charleston, Charleston, North Augusta, Midland Valley, Silver Bluff, Wagener-Salley, and Ridge Spring-Monetta). Just 17 miles down the road, Augusta National and the Masters Tournament drive massive April golf tourism to Charleston — the town has been a winter colony for golfers, equestrians, and northerners since the late 1800s, and Masters Week remains the highest-demand hotel week of the year. Coverage also tracks course-condition reports after Lowcountry weather events from the National Weather Service Columbia office, club-pro hires, course renovations, and the small-business sponsorships flowing to junior-golf programs across Charleston County.
