Nice course for all skill levels

Course was in great shape. A little soggy from the previous day's rain but very playable. Five sets of tees to challenge all skill levels. Look out for alligators!

Nice course

The course layout was nice and not too challenging for the average golfer. The course was in pretty good shape as well. Several of the greens were damaged but it really didn't affect play too much. Not a big fan of the "no outside food and drink" rule because we only saw the drink cart three times in 4 hours.

Gem in the Rough

This was the first time my wife and I have played in the Myrtle Beach area and we were VERY surprised how wonderful this golf course was. Would recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Both courses are a great play

My buddies and I played 36 holes (both east and west course) in the same day. Both courses were in good shape but a bit dry in spots. The turtle back greens on the east course made for some hard play. Our replay on the west course was a slow round behind 2 foursomes of not very good golfers that were really enjoying their beers (about 5 hours). Other than that the layout was challenging and interesting. The weather was clear but hot. The afternoon round had a lot of stiff wind which made play very challenging. Would definitely replay them if I am in nearby again.

Must Play

I have played many courses in the Myrtle Beach area over the years. The Pearl - East Course is one of the best I've played to date. The course's greens and fairways were in excellent shape. This is a must play for serious golfers.

Great Course!

Beautiful layout. Great conditions. Nice quiet round. No cars, houses or other golfers to contend with. The staff really seems to want you to play and have a great day. Playing the East course tomorrow. Can't wait.

Sun&fun

Nice course in great shape. Greens are nice and smooth. The only problem is the greens slope front to back so your shots will runoff the back. One starter yelled at an old man for taking the cart near the driving range asking him WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING very embarrassing . I would play it again

West to East

I booked the West course on Golfnow. There were several large groups going off at about the same time as me. The starter asked if I would play the East course, which I did, and I wasn't disappointed. After about a 30 minute delay at the start, the pace was pretty good. Some really nice holes for sure, especially 17 and 18. I would definitely play this course again and would like to play the West course.

Well maintained friendly staff and good pace of play. Great find on golf now app. Great layout. Lots of water I found lol. Will come back and play again next time I am down there.

Great course!

The staff could not have been friendlier- from the bag drop workers and the starter right down to the club house staff, everyone we met had a smile on their face and seemed genuinely interested in us having a great day. The course itself was in good shape- the bunkers has plenty of sand in them, the greens rolled true, and the fairways were ok. I loved the layout of the course! There are some great risk-reward holes here. My ONLY complaint was that I didn't see a single ball washer on the entire course! I would play here again without question.

Another MB Gem

Hadn't played The Pearl courses in some years and found some holes still held memories of previous rounds. Great Dan Maples layout. Greens were a bit slower compared to other courses played the last two weeks but putted true- just hard to adjust to the speed.

Really enjoyed playing here and will definitely be bsck.
