Feature Holes Descriptions:

There are only 3 holes where water is in the line of play at Cheraw. All three are solid holes demanding a true swing and a little courage. Hole 13 is a 90 degree dogleg left that forces you to cut off as much as you can to shorten the approach over a large pond to a large and well protected green. The bold players can try to go over the trees, but with little room for error, this is a huge risk / reward hole. Par 3 Number 14 is a short drive over the bridge and presents a tricky green guarded by a grass bunker front right and sand, trees and water on the left. The final hole, a lengthy Par 5, requires a daring tee shot over water to the uphill, dogleg left fairway, followed by two more solid strikes to get to the large sloped green.
