Glen Dornoch
Designed by
Clyde Johnston in a
tribute to the legendary Donald Ross,
Glen Dornoch is a
traditional course
where each hole
flows with the natural terrain of lakes, centuries-old
live oaks, and spectacular marsh and river views.
Featuring rare-for-the-area 35-foot elevation changes
and South Carolina’s most beautiful stretch of the
Intracoastal Waterway.
This is truly a wonderful site for a championship
golf course. Each hole seems to have been crafted by
nature rather than by man. The three finishing holes
are among the world's best.
The magnificent Glen Dornoch club house features
a traditionally-decorated pro shop with an extensive
fashion collection. The Pub offers homemade salads,
fresh sandwiches, and delicious daily specials...all
served with a tranquil view of the unique double green
of 9 and 18, plus the scenic Intracoastal Waterway.

All uphill, anything
center or just right of
center is perfect. Make
sure to take enough
club for uphill second,
must clear front
bunkers.
Keep drive as close to
bunkers on left as you
dare, to give you best
angle for your second.
Avoid pot bunker and
over the green.

side again; however, the
best place to be is as close
to right edge of fairway as
you dare for best angle into

Tee shot not defined well because
of wetlands. A finger of wetland
on right measures yards from blue
tee, either play short of it, or take
enough club to make sure you can
clear it. The second and third shots
are straight away.

Live oak on left prevents you from aiming
too far left, but drive
should favor left side.
Take enough club to
make sure you carry
the nasty little pot
bunker fronting this
green.
Drive
should be
left center
to set up a
second shot
that is very
demanding.
Consider laying
back to 125 yards to
avoid trees on right
if second strays too
far right.

Keep drive down left side of fairway; a short hole, so placement
more important than distance.
Second should carry on to
green, as there is a diabolical
mound hidden from view just
short of green to deflect short
shots.

As close to bunkers on right
as you dare, leaves you in
best position to approach
this green. Pay attention to
the yardage to the crest of
the hill. You don’t want to hit
it over. Scary second, but you
can’t deny its beauty!
