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."

Great course

Super friendly staff - Bag attendants, starter, pro shop staff, and cart girl. All were very friendly and accommodating. Course was challenging and very well maintained and location can’t be beat. My son and I played 36 and can’t wait to come back and play it again.

great course

1st time playing the course. Fairways were green due to grass and not painted which is amazing for this time of year, greens were fast but not as fast as the practice green. Course was a bit tight/narrow in a number of fairways but considering the length, you could score well if you had good ball control. greens rolled true, small but not the smallest in the area. Staff were helpful and friendly. Definitely worth the price for the quality playing conditions.

Harbor Dunes Rain Day

Staff very friendly and accommodating. Facilities are fairly clean albeit a bit dated and little tired. Surrounding environment/neighborhood is mixed with some well kept areas and others showing serious neglect. Playing surfaces in great condition for the most part. Layout of course is a bit convoluted as it intertwines through neighborhoods. The cart distances between some holes are quite long. Fairways are narrow by contemporary course standards. Overall a reasonably good course 6/10. Weather was a bit dicey so the crowds were not there. Pace of play was great in that regard. A little spendy for value.

Fantastic Round

Great round of golf and even had a gator sighting! Greens were fairly quick and the fairways were in very good shape for January. Beautiful course. There’s no turn so make sure you’ve got everything you need at the start of the round! Really enjoyed the round, though.

Wonderful golf experience

The Wild Dunes Harbor Course is one fine golf course. Beautiful groomed, superb conditions. Sufficiently challenging but fair for a 90’s golfer. Greens we’re running fast since it had a tournament the day before. Holes along inter-coastal waterway are a joy to behold.

Challenging in multiple ways

As the red-headed step-child to the resort’s Links Course, the Harbor Course is still a good challenge. It’s a very tight course with water/OB on nearly every hole. The greens are very, very small. And the winds can be brutal really affecting the ability to keep the ball in play. The course was in great shape and my playing partner made a hole-in-one on #13! That’s not something that happens every day.

The price is average for its quality and relative to nearby courses. But the most confounding part is the course layout and routing. To call it unique is an understatement. The course is squeezed between homes, The distance between 4 & 5 is at least a half a mile thru neighborhoods and across multiple streets. And the turn at 9 is no turn at all but at least two miles from the clubhouse.

Yet when you get past the crazy routing the Harbor Course is a good course worth playing with some memorable holes. The staff is friendly and they work to provide a good experience.

Tightest course great views!

The course was kept in amazing shape for December, the greens where a lil shaggy but to be expected, I really loved the challenge of the fairways being so small, but the only negative thing I could say is those greens were smaller then a putt putt course, but again it’s own challenge there but had a amazing time, and the cart girl was the sweetest

Enjoyed the Challenge

We played Harbor on a November Saturday with an early afternoon tee time. It was a challenging course with wind and water. With a 5:15 sunset looming, we were not able to get a full 18 holes in before dark. It was low tide so only a couple of cart paths were flooded forcing an inconvenience but nothing too troubling. The course staff was accommodating and gracious throughout the day. A narrow fairway layout with TINY greens created a challenge along with the steady winds coming off the ICW on almost every hole. Enjoyed the outing and we'll be back!

GREAT SHAPE

This course has some great views and is a pleasure to play. The course is in great shape; recently over-seeded, so the fairways are lush. The greens were in really good shape as well. Pace of play was very good.
