Signature Holes: The par-4 7th hole is one of the most memorable on the course, with a challenging tee shot over a marshland to a narrow fairway, followed by a demanding approach to a green protected by bunkers and water. The par-3 17th hole is another standout, offering breathtaking views of the Colleton River with a green that is almost entirely surrounded by water. It’s a hole that demands accuracy and nerve.
The Dye Course is maintained to the highest standards, with fast, true greens and perfectly manicured fairways. The course’s natural beauty, combined with its challenging layout, makes every round a unique experience. The course was restored in 2016 and is now more spectacular than ever. The Dye Course is a par-72 layout measuring 7,171 yards from the back tees, including the par-4 18th hole measuring 490 yards from the championship tees.
