According to Golf Digest's "Places to Play" guide, The Wellman Club is certainly one of best kept secrets in South Carolina. The course is considered a hidden gem on the grounds of the Persimmon Fields community. Designed by Ellis Maples and Ed Seay, the 7,018-yard Wellman Club golf course features lush Bermuda fairways and well-trapped fast greens, with water on 9 holes. A combination of beautiful and challenging championship golf and true, friendly Southern hospitality. It has true natural beauty and large, fast and well-bunkered greens with several challenging water holes. The signature par 5 11th hole is worth the ride and is considered a mirror image of the famed 13th holes at The Dunes Club in Myrtle Beach.
