Harbor at Wild Dunes Golf Links
About
Wild Dunes Harbor Course, designed by Tom Fazio, is said to be cut from some of the prettiest real estate in South Carolina. Water makes up a great deal of the Harbor Course layout. After all, half the course runs along the world’s longest water hazard, The Intracoastal Waterway. Fazio claims the Harbor Course to be one of his favorites. "Working on the Harbor Course was very satisfying to me as a designer because we had to create everything. It was a very challenging, and ultimately, a very satisfying project."

Good course
Good course. Somewhat narrow. Would've been nice to have a driving range at the course, but other than that, a pretty decent course.
Not for beginners
The course was beautiful! Tiny greens but rolled good, tight fairways with punishing rough and lots of water.
Very tight
Too tight really. Rough was long but not dense enough. No chance of a decent lie in the rough. The ball automatically fell to the bottom. Around the greens this was very annoying.
Great shape at the moment
And a solid golf course. It is a resort so pace of play can (and was) be an issue.
That said, I would play here again tomorrow. Look for online deals as well.
one bathroom
This course is the second course at Wild Dunes. The course runs a continuous loop of 18 so never comes back to clubhouse until done. There is only one bathroom so you can hit it at 6 and 13 I think. We had a beer and a couple waters because it's hot and there is never anywhere to go to the bathroom. My wife and I had to pass 3 groups on last 3 hotels and come back out and find a place to jump back in between groups to finish only because of no bathrooms. Ridiculous. Holes designed well. Although range balls included, they were only available at the links course 2 miles away. Nice course otherwise.
First time playing this course
The course was in good condition. There is a lot of water lining most holes. The first nine you are playing into the wind, the back nine the wind is at your back.
Great greens and layout
As expected, from service to fairway and green conditions are in great condition. , I'm very happy with this course. Booked through phone for the 340pm at $50 rate, normally was 150. Green and fairway are very lush and well manicured as a premium course.
The only thing that I want to mention was for RV or camper golfers. Be warned they don't allow camper inside. But they do provide shuttle service thought out the resort. You just have to park at the administration office building and catch a shuttle over. I'm playing the link course today, was told it is even better, look forward to the round this afternoon.
Green great putting on greens of this nicr
Just a wonderful place to play golf in the area must play
Excellent Course, BIG TIME FEEL.
First, the staff was absolutely amazing! John in the pro shop was absolutely fantastic, he not only gave me precise directions around the property, he sent me out at the perfect time. You really have to understand the groove of the day to pull that off, he nailed it. Well done John!
Jon, cart guy was a lot of fun, and genuinely showed me the hospitality you would expect down south. I caught him at the end of his shift, so he was able to show me around the course. Which I appreciated, it almost felt as if I had my own personal caddie. I played really well, on a challenging Fazio course that I don't think I would have enjoyed without Jon's directions. Thanks a lot Jon, you were first-class man (special thanks to the leadership for allowing this to enhance your patrons experience.)
As far as the amenities, the driving range lives at the far end of the property, the balls are dispensed by a machine. Leave your driver in the bag along long woods. The range is maybe 215 yards long, it finesse driven situated on a island, very unique.
The course is awesome, tee boxes were perfectly cut, fairways were rolling evenly hardly any rough, and the greens were quick but very smooth. The back nine really challenges your shot making skills, considering how many par 3s the Harbor Course has. Par 5s for long hitters present a well of eagle and birdie opportunities.
I had a great time at Wild Dunes. My only draw back at Wild Dunes Harbor Course was a grounds-man by the name of Greg, very rude and abrasive disposition. Very rude to me and had negative things to say about the pro-shop. Which was funny because everyone I came in touch with were PHENOMINAL! Particularly the pro-shop guys.
I'll definitely put this course on my list, and recommend to everyone that can appreciate the level of Wild Dunes. Keep up the good work guys!
Great course
I played this course a few years ago and today was my first time in a long time. Wow! I love it! The course is in amazing shape and it is challenging. It is pricey but if you are willing to spend the money I say go and play it. Just remember to stock up before you tee off because there isn't a turn to grab something to eat or drink. We played early so the snack cart wasn't around much.
Under-rated resort course -- old-school challenge
Guests at Wild Dunes all tend to focus on The Links Course, but The Harbor Course is every bit as good. People also think of it as much tighter than The Links, but frankly, it didn't seem any more claustrophobic. Great stretch of holes along the Intracoastal Waterway (9-11), and entire back side runs along marshland. Some LONG drives between holes, but just follow the signs. Layout is by Tom Fazio and Mike Strantz -- two great architects. Greens are tiny, but scheduled to be renovated. Lots of OB/hazards, but no more, it seemed, than The Links. Rates are a bit steep at the top-end of the rack rates, but might be able to find a deal (Twilight rates are good).
Tight, but fair
Course has long par 4s and 6 par 3a. Par 5's we relatively easy. Very windy day which made back nine tough. Greens rolled very good.
Course has no driving range to warm up on.
Hidden Gem
Coarse was in great shape. Fairways were green. View was nice. Wind and difficulty on back nine made it very challenging.
Lots of single players, having to let them through was inconvenient. The course should have paired them up.
Harbor Course
Fun golf course. Great scenery along the intracoastal waterway! Conditions were excellent
Fun in December
Very good condition for December, sunny and 70 degrees. All but a few spots on the greens were very good. Sand trap condtions varied considerably from "wet with hardpan under ball to fluffy in others. Pace of play was good even though very busy due to the beautiful day. As a threesome we waited in many shots as the groups ahead were foursomes. We still finished in about four hours. Good value at $55 price I paid for range, cart, and 18 holes. Overpriced at regular prices.
Good Course among Community
With water and housing along the fairways the course balanced challenges and opportunities.
2 Very Unfriendly workers
I've never written a review before but went out of my way to comment on how bad some staff was at Wild Dunes Harbor Course. I play a lot of golf and met some bad personalities but 2 guys I met here take the cake. The guy at the front desk was terrible. So unfriendly. Had 3 foursomes out to play and lot of first timers asking typical questions like how course in shape, where do we get food and beer, etc. He was so terrible. Then the absolute worst guy was some old guy ranger riding around just yelling for no reason to people. Never seen anyone so mean and miserable.
The starter, the cart girls and cart bag kids were all really nice. Course is fun and good shape. These guys made such a bad impression I had to write. Oh and the masquitos were terrible.
