We’ll be back!

Played 18 holes in less than warm weather but found the course to be challenging and well groomed. Realized after we left that our Garmin GPS was still in the cart. Contacted the staff next morning and they found it for us. Great job guys!

Slow play and poor Greens

The slow play on this course ruined this day of play.
They booked a lady's tournament which the ladies in front of us took half an hour to play each hole.
Greens were in poor condition and unable to make any puts with all the bumpiness.
Course had a nice layout but absolutely no ball washing facilities on the carts or at each hole!
With the choice of many golf courses in the Myrtle Beach area this would not be on my top 20 list.

Fun little course, grumpy little staff.

Teetimes are advertised until 5 PM. That’s totally false. I made a 4:12 time and they were shocked and appalled that someone dare try to play. I’ve never seen anyone want to leave so quick while it was still daylight. I was approached in the parking lot by the starter to question me. Again I was looked at like an alien when I checked in. Once I gave the starter my pass and he realized I was serious, he did become a little more friendly, but hot diggity dawg 530 is a hard out. The clubhouse staff left the parking lot before I did. The course itself has a nice layout. No homes which is great.
