South Carolina – Charleston
04/27/26
Charleston National is a Rees Jones designed championship golf course, open to the public, year-round. Rated by Golf Digest as the best non-resort golf course in the Charleston area, it truly is Charleston’s “hidden gem.”
I got a 9:30 AM tee time here and the pro shop set me up with 2 other gentlemen and one lady to play along with. It was a nice 70 degrees and the course looked great. I hit a few practice balls at the range and a few practice putts before getting started.

My Favorite Hole:
I think that would be hole #9. It’s the longest par 5 on the course and I made par. I made a great long down the middle tee shot, then my second went about 140 yards short of the green. My third was again short by just 3 yards. I chipped up close to the pin and made par with the one putt.
