Signature Holes
One of the most notable aspects of Pawleys Plantation is the presence of several holes that are bordered by saltwater marshes, particularly the signature par-3 13th hole, which is a short but tricky hole requiring a precise tee shot over the marsh to a small, well-guarded green. This hole and others exemplify the course's challenge, where accuracy is often more important than distance.
