I enjoy the atmosphere, however, Keith, the pro at the shop is not nice and creepy. The way he treats some of his employees is questionable and left me in awe. Other than that, it’s a great place to spend time. Stay away from him.
Went to a fun private party. The golf course is iconic.
The staff and head pro were especially welcoming and helpful during our US Kids junior tournament there! Great course, looking forward to attending next year
Course is in great shape… greens are very fast
Food was great and service was excellent
My son played in an SCJGA event at Cat Island and the experience was great. Well run facility and the course was in great shape considering it was in mid-February. Friendly staff and very nice clubhouse.
Beautiful homes and the one. Is peaceful, but too many deers..Drive carefully 👌
Golf course was amazing
What’s not to like. The new ownership group has done a great job in my book!
The food and service at the club exceeds my expectations. Over the last 18 months the Golf Course has been bought back from the years of neglect, the monthly improvements are clearly apparent.
Joined beautiful Cat Island in January and delighted with the course, club house and the wonderful staff…Also the members we have met have contributed to a wonderful experience…. We are looking forward to many enjoyable years wintering and playing golf at Cat Island. Not to mention the kick start to our golf season when we return to Canada ??… see you all again in January 2025.Many thanks again to Tim and his wonderful team.Peter and Laurie

My wife and I enjoyed a great “exploratory day”. The layout is outstanding and in remarkable condition considering it’s only been open for 10 months. Very friendly and hospitable staff. The clubs vision shared by Doug & Tim was very impressive. Can’t wait to return in 2025.
For all of our local small businesses that provide services:This establishment does not pay their invoices in a timely manner. If they call you to perform an HVAC or mechanical service I highly recommend you get payment upfront, otherwise you’ll get excuses and a runaround.
Needs lots of work. Fairways are rough and bunkers are ugly.
The Cat Island Club in Beaufort, South Carolina was course designer George Cobb's final design as he “passed the baton” to his understudy, John LaFoy who did a masterful job completing the work. When the course debuted in the summer of 1985, it was enjoyed by both locals and out-of-state residents and became one of the most desirable clubs in the area for years.However, after several years of neglect and poor management, the property was in disrepair and was subsequently purchased by Resort Development Partners (RDP) on June 1st, 2022. The company immediately called on LaFoy to help them return the golf course to its former glory. LaFoy and the staff at Cat Island Club have worked tirelessly to see that every mound, undulation, and contour has been restored to what both Cobb and LaFoy meant it to be.RDP hired Tim Mervosh, a golf industry professional with over 35 years of experience in the golf industry as General Manager. One of the first things Mervosh did was open up lines of communication between himself, RDP, and the membership base eliminating any doubt that RDP was “in it for the long haul!”LaFoy has done a wonderful job of blending Cat Island Club into its natural surroundings. Water comes into play on at least 12 holes and makes for a couple of Kodak moments from the 16th and 17th tees. The Port Royal Sound comes into play on six of these.As I stood on the first tee at Cat Island Club in Beaufort, SC, one of the members offered me some words of advice, “Favor the right side of the fairway.” I took his advice and hit it down the right side and, when I drove up to the ball, I could see why. There's a pond on the left side that is reachable from the tee. If you hit it left off the tee, you might get lucky and find a bunker! The water comes into play on approach shots to center or left pin placements. Looking back, I should have kept him around for the rest of the round!The views for Numbers 16 and 17 steal the show. As you stand on the tee box of the 118-yard par 3, 16th hole, you can’t help but be impressed by what you see behind the putting surface. Sixteen showcases South Carolina’s Lowcountry at its best with a boat dock beyond the green and countless miles of marshland behind that. The par 4, 17th hole is a dogleg left that plays 341 yards and starts with a tee shot from a manmade tee box in the middle of the marshland. Playing your tee shot over the marsh and down the left side of the fairway will leave a good angle into the green which is long and narrow.If you’re looking for a club where status is measured by how much you’re worth, how big your house is, or the car you drive, then Cat Island Club probably isn’t a good match. Membership here leans towards God, country, and family. Patriotism is also on high display here and with Parris Island nearby it’s no wonder! There are many Military veterans in the area and Cat Island Club is no exception. They’re easy to spot; they’re the ones standing at attention and saluting whenever Revelle plays at nearby Parris Island. When the course officially reopened, the Marine Honor Guard raised the flag and there was a flyover of F35 fighter planes; talk about impressive! LaFoy himself served in the Marine Corps.On my recent visit to the club, I was overwhelmed by how much use the swimming pool complex received. It includes a lagoon-style pool, a kiddie pool, an adult-only pool, and a jacuzzi. In case hunger or thirst overtakes you, there’s a full-service bar and poolside grill with a casual menu. It’s not unusual to find entire families here for the day.Cat Island Club is currently accepting new members. There are several membership classifications with low initiation fees and very reasonable monthly dues. It’s the best and most economical way to be a part of Cat Island Club and take advantage of everything they have to offer.
Wonderful community! Membership options are reasonable and well thought out for such nice amenities. ?https://youtu.be/Btv4PZ3M_6M?si=a-z-W55aEmdPCIYq
