About this course

Nestled within the Longleaf pines of Blythewood, South Carolina, Columbia Country Club’s Tall Pines/Lakeside courses represent a modern interpretation of Lowcountry golf. The original Lakeside course was built in the early 2000's and the Tall Pines followed soon after, each designed to test every club in a golfer’s bag. Carved from the gently rolling, wooded landscape, the courses favor strategic play over raw power, demanding thoughtful approaches on dog-legged fairways and well-guarded greens. While Columbia Country Club hasn’t hosted national championships, its dual courses are a regular fixture on the regional amateur circuit. The club is known for its family-friendly atmosphere and robust junior golf program, fostering a love of the game in the next generation of golfers from the Palmetto State. Beyond the course, Columbia Country Club is a community hub, centered around the game of golf. A relaxed dress code on the practice facilities and a lively post-round atmosphere in the clubhouse underscore the club's commitment to inclusivity and fun. This isn’t about stuffy tradition; it’s about enjoying good golf and good company in a beautiful South Carolina setting.

Getting there

The journey to Columbia Country Club begins at Columbia Metropolitan Airport, a compact regional hub just twenty minutes south of the club's gates in Blythewood. From the terminal, the route follows Interstate 77 north through the gradual transition from South Carolina's Midlands capital into the gently rolling terrain of the outer suburbs, where the urban grid gives way to stands of native pine and broader sky. The exit onto Blythewood Road marks the final approach, a quiet passage through horse country and wooded estates that feels deliberately removed from the bustle of downtown Columbia, culminating at one of the state's most established and discreetly elegant private clubs.
