The Plantation Course at Edisto

Picture moss‑draped live oaks framing fairways that weave past shimmering salt‑marsh inlets, white egrets lifting off as you step onto the tee, and a gentle Atlantic breeze adding its own rhythm to every swing—welcome to The Plantation Course at Edisto, the Lowcountry’s most scenic round. This island layout marries postcard beauty with pure shot‑making joy: designer Tom Jackson carved 18 holes through native oaks and palmettos, letting tidal ponds and golden Spartina grasses steal the spotlight.

At just over 6,100 yards, the par‑70 routing tempts you to grip‑and‑rip, but water lurks on 14 holes, subtle doglegs demand precision, and coastal winds turn club selection into an art form. Small, undulating Tif‑Eagle greens reward creativity, while generous landing areas keep the fun factor high for every handicap. It’s a walkable, strategy‑rich track where locals play bump‑and‑runs under the oaks and visiting sticks chase birdies against an ocean-scented sky. 

Whether you’re day‑tripping from Charleston or already unwinding on Edisto Beach, this is the round that proves a course can be both breathtaking and brilliantly challenging—an island gem you’ll want to replay as much for the views as for the rematch.
