While Patriot's Point is not the most glamorous or well maintained golf course you will play on this trip, it is an absolute bargain and is worth every dollar spent. Located right on Charleston Harbor, Patriot's Point is the golf course to play if you are looking for expansive water and city views, as it is located on a spectacular point that allows you to view the northeastern part of Charleston. You can even see Fort Sumter from multiple holes and use it as an aiming point on some of your tee shots. Patriot's Point is not a short and easy par 70 public golf course like most, it offers some real challenge and shotmaking as it has tees that can be played up to 7,000 yards. This par 72 can get windy as well, due to the fact that it is right on the water and doesn't have many trees. Not to mention, there is water in play on 16 out of the 18 holes, so no matter what level of golfer you are, you will be challenged. This golf course has also been awarded "Best Par 3 in the Lowcountry," which is hole number 17, a short par 3 to an island green that has sweeping views of Charleston, Shem Creek, and Fort Sumter. Patriot's Point ranges from $45-$100 for 18 hole rates and will leave you in awe once you experience its amazing waterfront views. The golf course is a 45 minute drive from the Andell Inn, a 30 minute drive from the Beachside Boutique Inn, and a 28 minute drive from John's Island.
