Detailed description

Legend Oaks Plantation is a Semi-Private 18 hole golf course located in Summerville, South Carolina, 30 minute northwest of Charleston on the site of a former rice plantation.

Legend Oaks Plantation golf course opened for play in 1992. The course was designed by Scott W. Pool.

Legend Oaks is genuine Low Country golf course. Golf Magazine Travel Editor Brian McCallen likened the approach to the Legend Oaks plantation-style clubhouse, through an avenue of 300-year-old live oaks, to the drive up Magnolia Drive leading to Augusta National. "Though the golf course is more akin to Pinehurst no. 2 in its straightforward presentation of challenge," McCallen added. Legend Oaks Plantation is a classic layout, nestled in Charleston's Historic Plantation area. It's a tight course with water in play on 14 holes, trees lining and bordering the fairways, and plenty of sand. The greens are well guarded, there's a number of doglegs, and it's really more of a shot placement course than anything else. The course is located in a residential community with houses in view on some holes.

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees the course plays to 6,974 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 4,954 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 15, a par-5 that plays to 596 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 8, a par-3 that plays to 160 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 1, a 434 yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole at Legend Oaks is # 17, a 175 yard par-3.
