Description

Family-built and family-run since the late 1960s, Charwood sits on sandy soils in West Columbia and today plays as an 18-hole layout. Founder and designer L.C. Lucas favored straightforward golf with room to swing the driver and greens that reward solid short-game touch. The club maintains a driving range and short-game areas, keeping it popular for practice. It's a value-minded local's track with plenty of nostalgic Midlands character.

Charwood is a unique course. There's a lot of sand, making it a lot different from most of the courses I've played. The course is lined with residential houses, which, combined with the sand, makes it one of the least aesthetically pleasing golf courses I've seen. There's also a couple of holes that look like they were added at the last minute and are not very well-designed. The worst thing about Charwood however, is that the members are very entitled. Two out of the three (2/3) times I've played there, members have just jumped on a tee right before my tee time, causing an obvious delay. I understand that members are the bread and butter of any golf course, but I do wish the staff would get a handle on this. I will say that the staff is very kind and helpful however. The best thing about Charwood is that it's not very expensive, and they have a great twilight rate. In addition, it's a pretty laid-back course, so it's good for people like myself who aren't very good. All-in-all, I'd say that Charwood is ok, but not the greatest golf course in Columbia.

Decent condition course. Could be better. Greens are tough which I enjoy. Most of the staff is nice. Good value with an actually interesting layout. Staff handles opinions well.

Disappointed in greens. Just painted and in rough condition. We should have gotten a discount I feel. Only acceptable green was number 18. The course has some good holes and can play from various tees. Needs to have some real good maintenance done.

Played there Saturday 7/26 and the course was in good condition. I heard mixed reviews but when we got out there it was a good track. The first 6 holes or so were very very slow; waited about 10 minutes per shot. Eventually the pace picked up but front nine was slow. The fairways were in good condition, very narrow fairways which was fun and challenging. Cart girl was active all day so that was nice to buy beverages. Overall, I would go again. Great course.

This course is in great shape, the greens rolled true and very fast. They are always very friendly and informative in the clubhouse, and booking a tee time was clear and simple. One of the most economical courses in my area. Two thumbs up!! 👍👍
