“What a gem!!! Stayed here while on a college tour of Clemson University. When we arrived the first thing I noticed was the grounds were immaculate. Our room was sparkling clean and as we headed out we passed our housekeeper who quickly introduced herself as Brenda and said if we need anything while we were here to let her know and asked us if our room was to our satisfaction. We thanked her for making it shine for us. She said she had worked here for 20 years and she just loved this place. It shows… Keep up the southern hospitality James F. Martin Inn.” – Shannon P.

“The best public course hands down. The golf pros and greens staff do an incredible job.” – Frank L.

“The Walker Course at Clemson University is a championship layout that ranks with some of the best in South Carolina. This tree-lined and open parkland course provides a wonderful test for your all-round game, with many attractive, skillfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy.
