I recently had the opportunity to play Cat Island Golf Club as a guest, and it was an excellent experience. The course was beautiful and very well maintained, but the biggest highlight was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating throughout the day. They made us feel right at home and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Very thankful for the hospitality and would highly recommend it to anyone lucky enough to get the chance to play there.

Played Cat Island golf club on July 30th 2023 during a VGA tournament. Overall this is a nice course and has its challenging moments. The best thing about this cause is its greens. They are in great condition and roll honest and true. The fairways, tee boxes, and bunkers are also in good condition. You must land in the fairway or you will be punching out of some very thick rough. Nice range and putting green for practice. However, the course is still working on adding to the course due to being shut down for a few years. One thing they MUST do immediately is put more water to drink on the cour…

The Cat Island Club in Beaufort, South Carolina was course designer George Cobb's final design as he “passed the baton” to his understudy, John LaFoy who did a masterful job completing the work. When the course debuted in the summer of 1985, it was enjoyed by both locals and out-of-state residents and became one of the most desirable clubs in the area for years. However, after several years of neglect and poor management, the property was in disrepair and was subsequently purchased by Resort Development Partners (RDP) on June 1st, 2022. The company immediately called on LaFoy to help them ret…

This pool is always closing down due to problems. Last year (2020) they closed in September due to their pump being broken. They didn’t open in 2021 until June due to the pump still not working, and we come to the pool Labor Day weekend to find the pool was closed on order of DHEC. No notification about the closing, and no idea of when/if it will reopen. This is not acceptable for how much you pay for the pool. Go somewhere else if you’re looking for a pool that stays open.

My son played in an SCJGA event at Cat Island and the experience was great. Well run facility and the course was in great shape considering it was in mid-February. Friendly staff and very nice clubhouse.

My wife and I enjoyed a great “exploratory day”. The layout is outstanding and in remarkable condition considering it’s only been open for 10 months. Very friendly and hospitable staff. The clubs vision shared by Doug & Tim was very impressive. Can’t wait to return in 2025.

Played the course on November 5, 2023 as a guest of a member. My expectations were low given how long the course had been closed, but I was pleasantly surprised. The greens were great. The fairways were a little shaggy but in very good condition. I’ll definitely go back !
