Yeaman's Hall Club Golf Course ☆ Follow

Yeamans Hall Club is a country club built on a 1100-acre tract about 12 miles from Charleston, South Carolina, in the town of Hanahan, South Carolina. The first 18-hole golf course, designed by Seth Raynor, was completed in 1925 at about 6400 yards. It is a classic Seth Raynor design with characteristic template holes, set on a spectacular property with massive live oak trees and broad vistas of the low country.

The course contains a classic collection of Raynor favorites, including a Road Hole, a Biarritz, a Redan and a Prize Dogleg. Unusual for the region it has a fair amount of elevation change, with bunkers that are deep and difficult and greens that typically have false fronts. In the late 1980s, the course superintendent discovered Raynor's original plans in the clubhouse attic. Architects Tom Doak and Jim Urbina used the plans to faithfully restore Raynor features, and Yeamans Hall today is one of the country's most polished and evocative examples of Raynor's architecture on a relatively flat piece of lowcountry land.
