Escape winter to Santee, South Carolina

The Historic Clark’s Inn & Restaurant Offers Affordable Golf Packages and the Comforts of Home

Santee, SC – Canadians crave two things during the long, cold, winter months; warm weather and golf. Santee, South Carolina is the perfect place for golfers to fill the void. 

With golf packages starting at $56, and access to three top notch courses within a mile of Clark’s Inn & Restaurant, Santee Cooper Country Club, Santee National Golf Club and Lake Marion Golf Course, proprietor Bill Clark thinks they have a recipe to satisfy golfers’ cravings.

“We have golfers here all year long, and on occasion during December and January we get some weather that makes golfing a little iffy.  Certainly for southerners!  But we find that Canadians will play in almost any weather when they are here.  We can’t do anything about the weather but we have been taking care of golfers for so long that we know what they want.”  

The Town of Santee is known as ‘America’s Value Golf Destination’ sits on the south shore of Lake Marion where the largest freshwater lake in South Carolina meets I-95.  

“It was here back in 1946 when my father Private William E. “Bubba” Clark returned from serving in the war that he had a vision.  From there Clark’s Restaurant was born.

 

Even before I-95 was an Interstate the road was a most popular route for northerners traveling to and from Florida and many people stopped looking for a good meal and a place to bed down.”

Over six decades and thousands of guests later, Clark’s Inn & Restaurant remains unbranded and family owned.  “We like to think of our guests as our friends and that while they are on the road our home is there home!”  

Clark’s is definitely not your cookie cutter style hotel.  Its gingerbread look in tandem with the classic southern hospitality, warm ambiance and all the modern luxuries lures travelers back year after year.

The restaurant too is in a class of its own. Designated Santee's Favorite Place for Food & Spirits, Clark's is not only a landmark; it is the oldest restaurant in Santee that offers a truly special dining experience. Guests can look forward to the home cooked flavors of their famous southern fried chicken and catfish fillet.
