About this course

Stono Ferry, west of Charleston, echoes with the whispers of Revolution, where American patriots once clashed near these very fairways. This links-style course, carved from former indigo fields, presents a distinctive Lowcountry challenge with its undulating terrain and windswept grasses. Designed by Gary Player, Stono Ferry unfolds with wide fairways that belie the strategic demands ahead. While seemingly forgiving off the tee, the course rewards thoughtful approaches and deft touch around the greens. It is a course that favors players who can control their ball flight in the ever-present coastal breeze, and those who possess a creative short game. While not a major championship venue, Stono Ferry offers a stern test and compelling playing experience. The club fosters a relaxed atmosphere.

Getting there

The Links at Stono Ferry is reached most conveniently via Charleston International Airport (CHS), situated roughly thirty minutes to the northeast, a straightforward drive that carries you from the coastal lowlands into the quiet, oak-draped landscape of the Lowcountry. From there, the route traces south and west through the marshlands and maritime forests that define this corner of South Carolina, where the transition from modern thoroughfare to tree-lined approach signals your arrival at this understated gem. Private aviation options at nearby Charleston Executive Airport (CXE) offer a more discreet entry for those seeking it, positioning you within minutes of the club's gates. The final miles unfold beneath a cathedral of live oaks and Spanish moss, a landscape that whispers rather than announces, befitting a course designed to honor the ancient traditions of links golf in one of America's most storied golfing regions.
