Tradition Club

The quiet allure of Tradition Club, a Pawleys Island classic, awaits those interested in experiencing true Lowcountry golf. This one-of-a-kind golf course is set upon a 500-year old rice plantation with a backdrop that features towering live oaks and lofty pines that have established residency upon the land for centuries. Tradition Club takes up residence in relative seclusion along the Grand Strand’s quieter southern shores and is peacefully hidden amongst well-protected maritime forests in order to create a sense of privacy and relaxation.

A gambler’s paradise, golfers have the option to "play it safe” on many of the holes but playing aggressively can prove just as rewarding if met with success. Twisting waste bunkers paired with a handful of strategically placed water hazards make for a round that requires extreme accuracy and determination. Intimidating tee shots amplify the importance of precision and focus, while approach shots into well-guarded greens prove equally as testing. Though pars or birdies are readily attainable on this course, you may find yourself scrambling to save par on some of the more demanding par 3s and par 4s.

Among Tradition Club’s many accolades are winning the prestigious "Golf Course of the Year” Award from the South Carolina Golf Course Owners Association in 2001 and earning a 4.5-star rating Golf Digest’s "Places to Play.” To this day, the course continues to receive a variety of distinctions for its meticulously maintained greens and fairways, as well as recognition and praise for its overall natural beauty.

Rated by players as one of the most enticing golf courses in the area, location and charm are married together in this stretch of 18 beautifully crafted holes. Let the coastal charm of Pawleys Island offer a glimpse of the quiet Southern lifestyle that defines a round of golf played at Tradition Club.
