- Description
- If you're a fan of golf with a side of scenic views, The Plantation Course at Edisto on Kiawah Island is your perfect tee-off spot. Nestled among ancient live oaks and waving palmetto trees, this gem was crafted by Tom Jackson in the late '70s, originally to spice up the local resort scene. It's not just a golf course; it’s a slice of South Carolina's serene beauty. One of the standout holes is the 6th — a par-3 that dares you with its island green. It’s all about precision here; one wrong swing and you're fishing your ball out of the drink! And for those who like a longer challenge, the 15th is a par-5 that’s guarded by cunningly placed bunkers, making your approach to the green a true test of skill and strategy. A tip for first-timers: Keep it accurate rather than powerful. The narrow fairways and sneaky water hazards demand a strategic game, especially around the greens. It’s more chess than checkers out here! Whether you’re staying onsite or just passing through, The Plantation Course offers a relaxed yet challenging day of golf, wrapped up in the tranquil vibes of Edisto Island. Swing by, and maybe stay a while! Check out more at [The Plantation Golf at Edisto](https://www.theplantationgolfatedisto.com/).
