The Pearl Golf Links - West Course

The course was in good condition generally with well-maintained fairways and greens. The layout provided a nice challenge and lots of variety, requiring careful shot placement to avoid hazards and awkward lies. And I always enjoy the views, especially from the holes along the Calabash River and marsh areas.

The Pearl is one of my favorite places to play down at the coast. I used their rental clubs and they were brand new Cleveland irons and driver. Loved how maintained the fairways were and how well kept the greens are. Looking forward to the next time that I am able to play this course!

They sliced the greens but forgot to mention it and the new layout wasn t nearly as nice as the original...staff were friendly and efficient pace play was great extemely windy day love many holes and setting by Marsh and harbor very nice. Rick

The course was in great shape and was wide open for play. it was very scenic & was secluded from players on other holes. My favorite holes were the ones’ right on the inter coastal waterway. My only complaint was that my Garmin GPS did not register the holes correctly and therefore, I did not get the use of GPS.

I would definitely recommend the course to others and plan to play it again soon!

This is a beautiful, challenging course. the course is absolutely beautiful with views that are breathtaking. I will add this to a short list of MUST GOLF courses in the Grantd Strand area.

Tee boxes, fairways, and greens are in excellent condition. Highly recommend

This was my first time at the Pearl Golf Club. I played with with Mike from Charlotte, NC. The conditions were great, the course was in great shape. I would definitely recommend this course, and will come back again.

First time playing this course, very nice layout and everything was in real good shape. A bit tight off the tee and many places to miss, my only complaint would be to get more yardage markers on the course or to put Gps in the carts.

Very nice course and pretty cheap as well. Great value!

Friendly staff, enjoyable course. I was warned by a friend of mine that this would not be a friendly course for a woman. Don’t know if things changed or not, but I found staff very friendly and helpful. The course was absolutely beautiful. Love the layout and the condition was good. Trying to blame the greens, but it must’ve been my putting was off. Barely missed several putts. Play got extremely slow but it was a Saturday. But again staff was very helpful and addressed And solved the issue. Will definitely go back and recommend.

I played in a 3-some at the Pearl West and East today in perfect weather. The course was in very good shape and we had no one in front of us, so we finished in less than 4 hours. I had problems with my Garmin finding the East course, but the West course tracked perfectly. All in all, it was a good value.

Played this course about seven years ago when it was a pearl. Now it is a ho hum, so-so conditions, chopped up due to potential development that did not take place, GPS nightmare which does not track to new hole locations. But for a $33 Hot Deal it was worth the money. Staff is as unfriendly as it was years ago when first visited this course.

Recently relocated to the area and played the Pearl North and West course for the first time.. Called for a tee time and they were very polite and accommodating, unlike some of the other courses in the area. When I arrived at the course the staff treated me as a valued guest. The course is open with some challenging greens all and all a good value.

Pearl is a quirky blend of pine barrens golf and wide-open parkland golf, but it's a pretty fair test of golf. Tee boxes and fairways were overseeded and green but very long and the greens were slow as molasses. Perhaps the greens staff didn't mow on this day, but between the slow greens and the steady winds, it was a tough test of golf.

Several of the greens are very undulating and make for extremely difficult approaches. Course knowledge will definitely serve you well here. We played the North and West nines and while I think both are fairly pedestrian in terms of their layout, the final four holes on the West nine along the Calabash River are a lot of fun.

The Pearl's not going to blow anybody away, but it's one of the more affordable courses in the area and a good test of golf. I hope the greens staff can continue to maintain and improve the course conditions in the near future.

OVERALL: 6.3/10

Fairways were as long as the rough and many spots on the course were barely playable

Really enjoyed our round. Very well organized. Great staff. A few wet spots but overall in great shape. Will definitely play again.
