pines and palmetto palms." |

Scottish-American style course. It has the best of both golfing experiences. Also
indicative of the low Country is Oak Point's fresh water wetlands (alligators included)

"Overlooking
Charleston Harbor." |
| One round on this harborside links course will confirm its
popularity. A subtle and rolling course, the Links' pleasing appearance belies its most
devilish feature: the winds blowing from the harbor. This factor gives it a certain
unpredictability, especially on hole #17, a short 3 par whose green reaches into the
harbor, giving golfers a real test for birdie. The constantly changing natural conditions
of Patriots Point Links, coupled with the breathtaking vistas, combine to give varied
dimensions to this course that promises to be a rewarding experience each time you play
it. Club Pro: David Nelson
