Great course for the value

Good course for a variety of handicaps. Several tee boxes to choose from. Placement was key on a few holes to offer every handicap a challenge. Course was in excellent shape.

Golf here: good track in great shape

Great greens, moderately fast, back nine is the challenge here; if you play front nine first; you can get rhythm and your swing tempo in sync and prepared for long par 4’s and finesse shots needed on back. Enjoyed the day here.

Good challenging course.

Very nice course. Played during a week of heavy rain and course held up nicely. My only complaint would be the cart path needs to be redone!

Nice track

The course was in excellent condition, despite having received significant rain. It’s a nice design, but it plays longer than the scorecard Indicates. My only complaint is that the cart paths are awful, and require replacement immediately.

Great Option Near Myrtle Beach

Played this course with friends in mid-October and thought is was great! Friendly staff; even though they were busy, the pace of play was good; loved the layout of the course and while I don't remember the actual price, I remember thinking it was definitely worth the money! Will definitely play here again when staying in MB!!

Bermuda rough

Like so many low country golf courses, Burning Ridge has long Bermuda grass rough. And, like so many others, the rough between the tees and the starts of the fairways is allowed to grow far too long.

Especially for a senior golfer, though it applies to all golfers, losing a golf ball between the tee and the fairway for the simple reason the rough is too long defeats speed of play and enjoyment of the game. Not only can one often not find a ball when one saw exactly where it went, but a bad tee shot can result in two or three more as one struggles to hit a ball out of long Bermuda grass.

Having learned my lesson well, I do not return to golf courses where the penalty for a bad shot is two or three more bad shots instead of just loss of distances and maybe a mediocre lie.

Slow round however great time

The course was very busy which caused an almost 5 hour round. The course has a nice layout and the fairways were in good condition. Greens were in good shape and rolled quick. Tee boxes (women’s) could have been a little better. We enjoyed the course immensely even though it was a long round. We would play this course again while in the area.

Nice course

Not sure what the negative reviews were about but the course was just right for winter. Over seeded fairways and tee boxes. No issues whatsoever

Great staff

The staff at this course is incredible. They always have a smile and are ready to help. The course, well, it isn't always in the best shape, the greens area little slower than most and it has some quirky holes. I always have fun when I play there though. Maybe because I play well there.

awful

I live in the Myrtle beach area so i know about the difficult winter we just went thru. That being so this is the worst conditioned course i have played since January. The "sand" in the bunkers was actually more like mud than sand. The course should be closed while they replace the greens but that is not scheduled to happen. I would not recommend playing this course till at least next April after the Bermuda starts to grow again after the dormant winter. Some of the fairways were as bad as the greens.

burning ridge

played on 9/21/2017...the course was in good shape...greens were good, not super fast but very smooth. fairways and teee boxes were in good shape..well worth the $43 we paid to play. they do run split tees so be mindful..we played in 4 hrs on the nose so we were very fortunate. i would recommend this course to golfers visiting mb

Quiet Afternoon @ The Ridge

I played with a HS friend of mine from the late '60's. He lives on the course and I visited him for the week and our 1st round was within an hour of our arrival. The course was in great shape...the bunkers were well maintained...greens rolled at a 9.5...rough was well maintained and fairways were closely groomed. Great course, staff and a pleasure to play......
