Courses in Sumter
Beech Creek Golf Club
Sumter, SC
Beech Creek Golf Club in Sumter opened in 1989 in the High Hills of the Santee, on the site of the Revolutionary War Battle of Beech Creek. It is three miles from Shaw Air Force Base. The course plays about 6,800 yards from the back tees through mature forest and open hills. Elevation changes are rare for the area and give long views. Ponds and well-placed bunkers add the challenge. It is public and open daily, about 35 minutes from downtown Columbia.
Crystal Lakes Golf Course
Sumter, SC
Crystal Lakes Golf Course is an 18-hole public course located adjacent to Dillon Park in Sumter County, South Carolina.

The layout was later expanded to a full 18 holes in the 1990s, with additional design work credited to Wayne Chappell. The course is described as a risk-and-reward layout that rewards accuracy over length, making it approachable for juniors and casual players.
