Good layout

layout was nice, staff good. The greens were to fast for public play. With tricky pin placements two putting from any distance was almost impossible. You probably need to play this course regularly to get a better feel for it. You would putt from 30 feet and go 15 past the hole. Would play again, but again for public play to fast greens slow down everyone.

Did not think it could be done

Both courses were in great shape and the staff could not be friendlier. It was a balmy December day and it was day one of a buddies trip. With the first tee time we thought it might be possible to get in 54 which we did with almost an hour to spare with staff help and encouragement. It was a fun day, but beware of #6 on the east course. Two members of our group decided they could score better by just hitting their drive into the water and play 3 from the drop area. A unique and challenging hole.

Pearl East is a nice Course but...

This is a nice Course that we have played before, challenging and well maintained. The only complaint is the Couple we played with who were from out of State also arrived early and were treated rudely when asked if they could go out earlier than their tee time. I guess we can understand if the Course is busy but it was not we did not catch up to anyone until the 16th hole and the foursome was very slow. The couple I am referencing said that they were given a sarcastic comment that if they wanted to play earlier they should have made an earlier tee time. Our experience here in Myrtle Beach is if it is not busy and you arrive a little early most any course let’s you out. I think because it was a Hot Deal they had an attitude too bad as it left a bad taste for all of us.

Very nice and challenging course.

My wife and I loved the layout of the course and the conditions were dry. Greens were very nice and fast. I would definitely play that course again and recommend it to friends.
