Golf in Summerville

Summerville is the county seat of Dorchester County, the largest town in the county and a major suburb of the greater Charleston metropolitan area, about 25 miles northwest of the city of Charleston. Summerville has a history as a summer retreat for Lowcountry planters seeking relief from coastal heat and fevers, earning the nickname Flowertown in the Pines for its azalea gardens and pine forests. The town has grown significantly in recent decades as one of the primary growth communities in the Charleston metro, with Dorchester County among the fastest-growing counties in South Carolina. Summerville's three golf courses serve the large and growing Dorchester County community.
