What Makes Woodside a Golfer’s Paradise?
South Carolina has a long and meaningful history in the game of golf, and Aiken sits right at the heart of it. Our hometown is host to the historic Palmetto Golf Club, founded in 1892 and recognized as one of the oldest continuously operating 18-hole golf courses in the country, still played on its original grounds. Just 21 miles from Woodside’s gates, Augusta National hosts the world-famous Masters Tournament, placing our community in the center of one of golf’s most celebrated regions. With that legacy as its backdrop, it’s no surprise that the game thrives within the gates of Woodside. Residents enjoy 72 championship holes designed to honor the game and elevate everyday living.
With four championship 18-hole courses woven throughout our community, players of every skill level love trying their hand at one of Woodside’s unmatched golf experiences:
- The Reserve Course: Nicklaus Design
Designed by Nicklaus Design and recognized by Golf Digest as one of “America’s Best New Private Courses” upon opening, The Reserve Club Course is the crown jewel of Woodside Golf. Expect rolling fairways, elevated greens, and scenic Aiken vistas that make every hole memorable. With multiple tee options, it’s enjoyable whether you’re fine-tuning your short game or chasing your best score yet.

The Hollow Creek Course, crafted by Clyde Johnston and Masters champion Fuzzy Zoeller, offers a more strategic layout that rewards smart shot-making.
