- Description
- Hey fellow golfers! If you're looking for a classic round of golf steeped in Southern charm, you've got to check out Summerville Country Club right here in Charleston. Established in the roaring '20s and expanded in the '50s by the visionary John Doe, this 18-hole gem blends a rich history with a layout that keeps all levels of golfers on their toes. One of my personal highlights is the 5th hole—a tricky par 4 where a sharp dogleg right demands some smart play off the tee. Avoid those pesky bunkers or you'll be fighting for a clear shot to the green. And believe me, that satisfaction of nailing the green after a strategic drive? Unmatched. For those hitting the links here for the first time, remember: this course favors accuracy over power. Sometimes it's wiser to club down and focus on placing your shots, especially on those narrower fairways. Whether you're here to challenge yourself or just enjoy a day out with friends, Summerville Country Club offers a welcoming vibe with perfectly manicured greens and a layout that never gets old. So grab your clubs, and maybe I'll see you at the 19th hole! For more info, swing by their website at [Summerville Country Club](http://www.summervillecountryclub.com). Happy golfing!
