Pros:
+ Scenic course. Palm trees dot the course and the back nine plays along a stream.
+ Well done tees and signs. Long, level tees and accurate, detailed signs.
+ Navigation is extremely simple. The next tee is always visible from the last basket.
+ Some fun lines here. #6, #8, #10 and the last few holes were all pretty fun. Short holes but enough trees and elevation in play to keep things interesting.
+ Decent shot variety. Most holes are fairly straight shots, but there's some uphill shots, downhill shots, and a few holes with multiple routes.
Cons:
- 16 out of 18 holes had broken glass on the fairways.
- I don't think any hole was over 250'.
- While the water hazards present some risk / reward scenarios, none of the holes are hard enough they can't be birdied with a putter.
- Leans a little too hard on 120-180' straight holes. Some more hard hyzer lines would be welcome.
Other Thoughts:
This was a fun pitch and putt course. The tees and signs are great, and its very quick to play.
This is a good course if you're looking to warm up for one of the longer, tougher 18's in the area, or just want a stress free round packed full of birdie opportunities and ace runs.
Despite being a really easy course, I had a fun round here. Nice way to relax while on vacation enjoying the beach.
I threw Swashbuckler before Socastee, and they paired well together. This course got me warmed up, while Socastee made me work (Threw golds).
