Litchfield Country Club
Pawleys Island, SC — The Wailea Golf Club Emerald Course, a vibrant creation by Robert Trent Jones Jr., opened in 1994 with a design philosophy centered on enjoyment and aesthetic appeal for a broad range of golfers, particularly considering women golfers in its conception. Jones Jr. aimed to delight the senses while subtly testing club selection and strategy. The course is renowned for its lush, tropical landscaping and gentler, more aesthetic bunkering compared to its sister course, the Gold. It offers breathtaking views along the southwestern edge of Maui, with the Pacific Ocean serving as a constant, stunning backdrop. A unique and memorable feature is the large, double green shared by the 10th and 17th holes, adding an intriguing element to the round. The first hole itself is considered a signature, a 380-yard par-4 that immediately immerses players in the Hawaiian landscape with lava rock and jungle elements. The Emerald Course's commitment to playability, stunning scenery, and thoughtful design makes it a highly acclaimed and enjoyable golfing experience in Maui.

Founders Club at Pawleys Island
Pawleys Island, SC · 0.5 mi away
Founders Club at Pawleys Island stands out as a testament to creative design, offering a unique Lowcountry golf experience with more elevation change than typically found along the Carolina coast. Masterfully reimagined by Thomas Walker, former lead designer for Gary Player Design, the course is built upon the foundation of the old Sea Gull Golf Club, transforming it into a visually stunning and strategically demanding layout. Walker’s philosophy shines through in the rolling terrain and the omnipresent waste bunkers that artfully frame nearly every hole, creating a dramatic landscape punctuated by native sea oats. The playing experience here is undeniably challenging, requiring precision and thoughtful shot-making. The par-5 12th hole is a memorable highlight, a double dogleg that tempts golfers with multiple routes to a well-guarded green, embodying the course's strategic depth. While demanding, the course’s excellent conditions and unique character make it a rewarding round. Founders Club is ideally suited for destination golfers seeking a distinctive and rigorous test of their game, offering a departure from the conventional beach course aesthetic.
