Golf in Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant, South Carolina has 9 golf courses in or immediately serving the town, and the split that matters to a buyer is public versus private: Patriots Point Links takes public play, Snee Farm Country Club and Dunes West do not. Each course below is listed with its designer, par and yardage where the club publishes them.

Two of the seven neighborhoods on this index are built around a golf course: Snee Farm around Snee Farm Country Club, and Dunes West around its own club just up Highway 17 from Brickyard. Worth knowing before you assume a course comes with the house — at Snee Farm it explicitly does not.

VERIFIED FROM THE HOA'S OWN SITE. The Snee Farm Community Foundation (the neighborhood association) states of the country club: "While not included in the annual assessment, many residents enjoy membership at the club." The club is a separate private business from the HOA; buying a home in Snee Farm conveys no golf, tennis, pool or clubhouse access, and club dues are billed separately from the HOA assessment. Membership is voluntary — unlike some golf communities where a social membership or higher is mandatory. The SFCF is managed by Ravenel Associates (manager John Eysen, jeysen@ravenelassociates.com, 843-768-9480 x3943). SAFE TO PUBLISH AS STATED. Do not publish specific initiation-fee or dues figures — the club does not post them and secondary ranges could not be verified.
