Jones at Sea Trail Golf Resort and Convention Center

This Rees Jones-designed course was at times like playing in a scenic wetlands and at other times amid some beautiful homes. That's how varied the environment was. A couple of fairways were soggy from previous rains but for the most part the course was in great shape for mid-December. We saw blue herons, egrets, cormorants and, on one hole, a large alligator thankfully sunning itself quietly to one side of the green not far from a pink golf ball that someone ahead of us apparently decided not to retrieve. All in all, a great day on a fine course at a bargain price. Would love to play the Byrd and Maples courses at Sea Trail.

I thoroughly enjoyed this round of golf.

Course condition was excellent... it's winter golf but the fairways, greens and tees were nicely over seeded so they were green and plush... just a bit wet from watering necessary to get the winter rye to grow. Traps were nicely groomed and paths were in good condition. The course layout was quite good but not in my top ten for the immediate area.

I signed up as a single but got paired up with another single. He was a great playing partner. We completed the round in just over three hours only having to wait on a few shots.

Great value for the cost. Definitely would play the Jones Course again.

Very nice course but very wet

I've played all 3 Sea Trail courses in the last month and the Jones is in the best condition. Rye is growing in nicely, greens rolled true, fewest issues with over watering fairways. Some bare / worn areas in rough and fairways but much better than the other two courses.

For late November the course was in OK condition. The fairways grass was a little sparse and the greens were a little bumpy and slow, but consistently so. Some teeboxes were almost bare, but the bunkers were very good - nice powdery sand. The layout is very nice - good variety on the par threes. Nice aesthetics for a course that winds through a residential area. Overall a very pleasant day!

Arrived to Sea Trail on Thursday. Nice weather and over night lots of rain so cart path only. That's only bad thing i can say about the course. Greens were true but slow. Not a bad lie anywhere in fairways unless in water gathering areas. Tee boxes nice as well. Bodies of water on majority of holes. Only 2 real problems/concerns was the attitude of the bag handlers/starters. Some what rude and short.Other problem was range was couple hundred yards away from bag drop and had to walk to range with cart paths leading to range. Putting green was in opposite direction of bag drop and just as far away and had to walk there as well.

it took 2hours and twenty minutes to play six holes on the jones course so i was forced to play on the byrd course

This is one of many must play tracks in the area for the value and mid handicap golfers. Very generous fairways, lots of water, 11 of 18 holes, but half of the water hazards do not really come into play. Great condition, pride shows in grounds crew and Supt, drains very well, a handful of greens and tee boxes are rough, but are coming along nicely. Quite a few very challenging and scenic holes, straight forward layout off the white tees that seems to play less than 6,350 yards. Tough par 3s. Had a great day, couldn't say enough about the entire staff as they made the visit a "can't wait to come back again" feel. 5+ rating there! Gators galore.

First, I have to say that for the money I paid, this wasn't a bad deal. That said, I would have to rate the greens "Poor". Some of the tee boxes were also in serious need of repair. I liked the design and layout of the course. But no matter how much money you pay (or don't pay), I expect the greens to be in puttable condition. These were bumpy and sparse. With a little bit of maintenance, this would be a fun course to play.

Course layout and fairways excellent; however, a few of the greens were bumpy.

Nice course layout,..best value we have found in many years in Myrtle Beach area

Definitely on my list to play again.

First time playing the Reese Jones course. The Seatrail facility is a very large complex. The course was in good shape except, some of the greens were bumpy. New grass growing in and airation. I was told they are going to replace the greens in May . Staff very friendly.

We loved it and will be back to play again our next trip to Myrtle Beach. Beautiful course and great management.

Fabulous conditions for this time of year

It was cloudy for most of the round but the rain held off till we were finished...so that in itself made for a great day.

The tee boxes & fairways were in pretty good condition considering all the rainfall we have had recently. The greens were in fair to good shape.

It was cart path only on 4-holes but there were a couple of other areas that should have been marked or made cart path only. Some people just won't stay out of low, damp areas...which leaves ruts, etc. in the fairways.

friendly staff,nice layout,lots of water and sand traps,five holes where cart path only.would be a great course to play if it was dry.

Our first time at Sea Trail Jones was Saturday. Staff and facilities are top notch. The practice putting area was immaculate so we were excited about the round. The greens on the course were a big step down from the practice green. The course was quite wet from all the rain we've had. Still the fairways and tees were good. Bunkers were terrible. Hard as clay. What is disappointing is that the course was not set up for wet conditions. For God's sake move the tees forward a little so that on long par fours you have a chance to get home in two with drives that often plug and get no roll. With that said, would love to go back in drier conditions.

Sea Trail is a solid destination and is well worth a try. I've always enjoyed my rounds there.

My rating is low because the course was wet and there wasn't any rain all week. To be fair, there was a lot of rain previously, but the course was still too wet to mow. We spent a lot of time trying to find balls in the fairway, but amazingly still managed to get through in 4.5 hours.

There are still several holes that are cart path only, and of course all par 3's. Other than that the course is in pretty good shape. There are a few holes that should probably be cart path only as they are quite wet. Overall a good course and great value.
