Sergeant Jasper Country Club
About this course
Sergeant Jasper Country Club sits in Ridgeland, South Carolina, a small town in the Lowcountry region between Savannah and Charleston. The course was designed by Gary Player, the South African champion whose design firm has created layouts throughout the southeastern United States. The property occupies terrain characteristic of the coastal plain, where relatively flat topography meets stands of pine and hardwood, with water features that reflect the area's proximity to tidal rivers and wetlands. Player's design work in the region typically emphasizes strategic bunkering and water management, asking golfers to navigate hazards while working with the natural drainage patterns of Lowcountry land. The course serves a residential community and operates as a semi-private facility, providing golf in an area that has seen development growth along the Interstate 95 corridor. The setting offers the quiet, wooded character common to inland South Carolina courses, distinct from the marsh-lined layouts closer to the Atlantic coast. The club takes its name from Sergeant William Jasper, a Revolutionary War figure known for his actions during the 1776 defense of a palmetto-log fort in Charleston Harbor. This historical reference connects the facility to South Carolina's colonial and military heritage, a naming tradition found across golf clubs in the state. The course provides a regional option for both residents and travelers passing through the Lowcountry's interior.

Getting there
The journey to Sergeant Jasper Country Club begins at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV), situated roughly 45 minutes to the east, or alternatively through Charleston International (CHS), a similar drive to the south - both gateways serving the coastal Lowcountry with equal grace. From either hub, the route winds inland through the maritime landscape of the Sea Islands, transitioning from coastal marshland into the oak-canopied roads that define this corner of the South Carolina Lowcountry. The final approach to Ridgeland carries you through a landscape of Spanish moss and pine, where the club's grounds emerge as a serene sanctuary of championship fairways and Southern hospitality, perfectly positioned between the historic charm of Beaufort and the refined leisure of Hilton Head.
