The Course – Daniel Island Club Ralston Creek (Par 72, 7446 yards): Against a stunning backdrop of natural saltwater marsh and tidal creek vistas, acclaimed golf course architect Rees Jones has designed a true Lowcountry classic. Ralston Creek, Daniel Island's second 18-hole masterpiece, is a par 72 course playing 7,446 yards from the championship tees. Opened in 2006, the course was named among the nation's top new private courses by Golfweek and Golf Digest magazines and has hosted Korn Ferry Tour events. "The layout has all the elements of a stern test of golf," says Jones, "including strategically placed, sculpted fairway bunkers, diversely contoured greens, greenside bunkers placed to protect the championship pin positions, and enough length for the long hitters.
