Word on the street
What locals are saying
Trophy Lakes is widely regarded as a hidden gem on Johns Island, combining a well-regarded 18-hole disc golf course with a cable wakeboard park, slalom ski lake, and aqua park. Disc golfers consistently call it the best course in the Charleston area, praising its tactical water-carry holes and scenic layout, though locals flag poor signage, inconsistent maintenance, and an $8 daily fee as friction points that make repeat casual visits less appealing. The watersports side draws steady praise for friendly instruction and a relaxed atmosphere, but the facilities feel lightly staffed and the clubhouse is noted as rarely open.
