I was vaguely aware of this golf course as we used to drive by it on the way to the beach (I usually cut off this section of the Sumter Highway by US-601 nowdays). Looking at the google reviews suggests it closed around November 2018, which surprises me, frankly. I did not go far into the property because I wasn't too easy in my mind about leaving my car at the entrance, but the road to the club-house seems to already be in quite bad shape, and I did not see any stretches of grass that looked like a course to me. Grass can certainly die, but it hasn't been exceptionally dry so far this year. I'd like to find a more secure place to park sometime and get up as far as the club-house to see what kind of shape that is in before they take it down. Of course that assumes that they do: currently the property is still for sale, so I guess it could still come back as a golf course under new ownership.

You can see the property in the satelite view of Google Maps with the map icon below, and there are also pictures (and diagrams) at the LoopNet listing and the Colliers listing. There are some people sharing memories at the unofficial Facebook page.

  1. Yeah, My friends dragged me to this course when I got my Betamax camera so I could film their swings. It was an OK course with little traffic in the 80s. There was one really nice hole where you tee off on a small cliff over a pond to the greens on the other side.

  2. R.I.P. SedgeWEED.....the local goat track of a course, but it offered golf to those on that side of town who couldn't get into the country clubs.

  3. I live out this way off of 378 and the word on the street is that it was finally bought by the owners of Cottle Farms. Not sure what they will do with it but hopefully it's a going to be a great expansion for their strawberries! The real reason I wanted to comment is that there is a BEAUTIFUL Victorian style house on the property that appears to have once been going through a remodel but never finished. You have to look close..it is directly across the street from the Bealuh Church on 378 in a grove of trees on the edge of the properry. If you parked where I think...you were probably right next to it and didnt even notice it. Its purple! THOSE are the pictures you want! Shame whoever started restoring it didnt finish.
