The Club at Pine Forest

The Club at Pine Forest, at 1000 Congressional Boulevard, anchors the community. Its 18-hole, par-72 course was designed by Bob Spence and opened in 1992, playing 6,905 yards from the championship tees down to 4,990 yards from the forward tees across five sets of tees.

The layout is unusual for the Lowcountry. Where most courses in the region run flat, Pine Forest works in genuine doglegs and elevation change, with elevated and undulating greens and a sprawling lake system that brings water into play on all eighteen holes. The live oaks, pines and dogwoods have earned the club the local nickname “Little Augusta,” most often applied to the stretch through holes 11 to 13. The course is semi-private, meaning it is open to public play alongside member tee times, and it runs an active tournament and instruction calendar.

Beyond golf, the club maintains a lighted clay tennis complex with lessons, adult leagues and a junior program spanning beginners through tournament players, pickleball programming, a Junior Olympic-size swimming pool with a bathhouse and cabana bar and grill, a play park, and a full-service clubhouse with a dining room and member’s lounge overlooking the course, pool and courts, plus locker rooms and event space.

The Four Sections

Pine Forest is not a single subdivision but four sections that grew outward over three decades, each with its own housing stock and homeowners association arrangement.

Pine Forest Country Club is the original section, with homes built primarily in the 1990s and early 2000s. These sit on the community’s largest lots, with the widest variety of floor plans and the brick exteriors the community is known for.

The Gables at Pine Forest Country Club sits south of the Rumphs Hill Creek bridge and operates under its own homeowners association, with dues collected through the master association.

Legacy at Pine Forest is a newer phase with more recent construction, generally offering larger square footage and contemporary floor plans, including layouts with private in-law suites for multigenerational households. Legacy homes belong to the master association and to a second Legacy association managed by ThirdTier, LLC.

The Reserve at Pine Forest is the newest section, built by Hunter Quinn Homes with three floor plans running from roughly 2,049 to 2,685 square feet. The Edisto is a single-level plan with three or four bedrooms that separates the living quarters from the entertaining space. The Rantowles centers on an open kitchen and oversized island with a first-floor primary suite and a flex room above that can convert to a guest suite. The Stono takes a more traditional two-story approach, with a first-floor office and second-floor loft that can each become a bedroom for up to five.

One practical note for buyers: because the sections carry different association arrangements, confirm which one a specific address falls into before making an offer. The master association publishes a section map and governing documents.

Homes in Pine Forest

Homes range from approximately 1,300 to more than 4,400 square feet with three to six bedrooms, across both one-story and two-story plans. The mix spans original 1990s and 2000s brick construction, the newer inventory in Legacy and The Reserve, and architectural styles including Craftsman, traditional Southern and brick ranch.

Many homes back directly to the golf course or to community ponds, and both interior lots and water-view lots trade regularly. Because build-out happened gradually rather than all at once, resale inventory here tends to be varied in age, size and condition in a way that newer Summerville communities are not — which rewards buyers willing to look at several homes rather than comparing two nearly identical floor plans.

Schools Near Pine Forest Country Club

Public Schools

Pine Forest Country Club is served by Dorchester School District Two, which enrolls roughly 26,500 students across 26 schools in southeastern Dorchester County.

According to the district’s published 2026–2027 Schools by Subdivision list, all Pine Forest sections — Pine Forest Country Club, Pine Forest Patio Homes, and The Reserve at Pine Forest — are currently assigned to the same three schools:

William M. Reeves, Jr. Elementary School at 1003 DuBose School Road, serving grades PK through 5.

DuBose Middle School, serving grades 6 through 8.

Summerville High School at 1101 Boone Hill Road, serving grades 9 through 12. Established in 1960, Summerville High is the district’s oldest and largest high school and competes as the Green Wave.

That consistency is worth noting: unlike several fast-growing communities in the region where a single subdivision splits across multiple attendance zones, Pine Forest addresses follow one track from elementary through high school. Attendance boundaries are reviewed periodically and can change, and assignment is determined by the district rather than the community, so confirm current assignment for a specific address directly with Dorchester School District Two before making a purchase decision. The district maintains an address lookup tool alongside its subdivision list.

Private and Parochial Schools

Pine Forest sits within one of the better-served pockets of Summerville for independent education, with several options a short drive from the Old Orangeburg Road entrance.

Pinewood Preparatory School — Summerville, K2 through grade 12, founded in 1952 by Henrietta Muckenfuss Allan. A non-sectarian, college-preparatory independent day school on a 43-acre campus at 1114 Orangeburg Road, essentially around the corner from Pine Forest. Accredited by SAIS and SACS and competing in the South Carolina Independent School Association, it is the closest full PK-through-12 independent pathway to the community.

Summerville Catholic School — a parish school serving elementary and middle grades within the Diocese of Charleston.

Faith Christian School — Summerville, kindergarten through grade 12, founded in 1949. An independent, interdenominational college-preparatory school on Farmington Road.

Northwood Academy — a Christian college-preparatory school serving preschool through grade 12, accredited by Cognia with advanced accreditation from the South Carolina Independent School Association.

Ridge Christian Academy — Summerville, on Ridge Church Road, established in 1999 and accredited by the South Carolina Independent School Association, with programs beginning at the preschool level.

Trinity Classical Academy of Summerville — Waring Street, offering a classical curriculum for families specifically seeking that model.

Admissions timelines at the independent schools generally run a year ahead of enrollment, and several have limited space at popular entry points. Confirm current grade offerings and enrollment directly with each school.

Location and Nearby

Pine Forest Country Club is located off Old Orangeburg Road and Butternut Road, with two main entrances that keep in-and-out traffic from funneling through a single gate. US Highway 17-A and I-26 are both minutes away.

Historic downtown Summerville is a short drive, with shopping and restaurants around Hutchinson Square, the Summerville Farmers Market, and a full calendar of community events through the year. Charleston International Airport is approximately 25 minutes by car, and historic downtown Charleston is roughly 30 to 35 minutes via I-26. The beaches at Folly Beach, Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms are about an hour away.

Everyday shopping, medical offices and dining along North Main Street and the 17-A corridor are within a few minutes, and Summerville’s newer retail around Nexton is roughly fifteen minutes north for buyers who want that inventory without living in it.

Pine Forest Country Club FAQs

What types of homes are available in Pine Forest Country Club homes for sale?

Homes range from approximately 1,300 to more than 4,400 square feet with three to six bedrooms, in both one-story and two-story plans. The community mixes original 1990s and 2000s brick construction with newer homes in the Legacy and Reserve sections, in Craftsman, traditional Southern and brick ranch styles. Many homes back to the golf course or to community ponds, and lots are generally larger than those in the region’s newer master-planned communities.

What golf course is at Pine Forest Country Club?

The community is built around The Club at Pine Forest, an 18-hole, par-72 course designed by Bob Spence that opened in 1992. It plays 6,905 yards from the championship tees down to 4,990 yards from the forward tees, with five sets of tees, elevated undulating greens, and a lake system that brings water into play on all eighteen holes. The course is semi-private and open to public play alongside member tee times.

Is Pine Forest Country Club a gated community?

No. Pine Forest is an open community with two main entrances, off Old Orangeburg Road and Butternut Road, on public streets. Individual sections operate under separate homeowners associations that maintain common areas.

What makes Pine Forest Country Club different from newer Summerville communities?

It was built out gradually from 1992 rather than delivered as a single master plan, which shows up in three ways buyers notice immediately: larger lots, mature live oaks and Carolina pines instead of young landscaping, and predominantly brick construction. It also has a golf course, tennis complex and pool at its center rather than a shared amenity building, and its addresses follow one consistent Dorchester District 2 school track from elementary through high school.
