About this course

Monticello Golf Club is the newer of the two 18-hole courses at Savannah Lakes Village, a 4,000-acre lakefront community on Lake Thurmond in McCormick, South Carolina. Designed by Tom Clark and opened in the spring of 2000, the par-72 layout stretches 7,032 yards from the championship tees. It is a modern links-style course with rolling topography and water in play on nine of the 18 holes, including a dramatic lakefront peninsula green midway through the front nine. Greens are MiniVerde Bermuda with zoysia collars and Bermuda fairways. Golf Digest named Monticello one of its top ten new courses in 2001. Outside guests can book tee times through the golf shop.

Mount Vintage Golf Club

North Augusta, SC · 28 mi away

Mount Vintage Golf Club in North Augusta is a 27-hole Tom Jackson design spread across the rolling, wooded topography of Edgefield County. The original 18 opened in early 2000 as the Chester and Vintage nines and hosted the LPGA's Asahi Ryokuken International Championship from 2000 through 2004; Jackson returned to build the Independent nine, which opened later in the decade. Each nine has Champion G12 bermuda greens, bermuda fairways and five sets of tees, and elevation change is constant, with uphill or downhill shots of at least 30 feet on eight of the nine Vintage holes. Holes 5, 6 and 7 on Vintage wrap around Pavilion Lake and are the club's signature stretch. The clubhouse is a restored 1840s piedmont plantation house, and the homeowners association runs the club as semi-private with daily-fee play.
