Caddie's Summary: Within what may
be one of the top five resort locations in the US, Kiawah Island Club has two private
courses for Island property owners. Guest package are available but not easily obtained.
The courses, are incredible. The River Course is a golf course with amazing uniqueness.
Sculpted fairways are always in near-perfect condition, and the greens and bunkering are
very challenging. Surrounding the golf course are beautiful wide-open sceneries with
marshes, grasses and forest. It is an ideal stroll in the park. Timid beware, however,
as this course is demanding. A perfect place to improve your game focus, the high
bunkers, fairway ridges (making for some tough lies) and heavily sloped greens require
precise shot-making and club selection. If looking for a natural retreat with
breathtaking views and the best golf design around, look no further than the Kiawah
Island Club. |
