Wellman Golf Club

Nice little course! Just reopened in 4/23. Played on Xmas Eve ‘23 w/ my son. $27 a guy! Definitely worth the $

Fairways and Tee Boxes were very nice. Greens were unbelievably filled with slope and I three putted a ton. Ended up rage quitting on 17 after my 6th 3-putt. Also, looking for a new mallet putter (broke mine on 17). Loved the staff though.

Course was in good condition. Cart paths are in serious need of repair. Course has some challenges but fun to play.

Overall the course was in great shape considering the time of year (late fall). Only complaint would be the condition of the cart paths. Very rough shape. ,

This was a good value for the money. I did not like the fact that swing u GPS did not know this course

This is not an easy course. I would play it again

Golf’s recent popularity surge has reversed the fortunes of many courses, and at the reopened Wellman Golf Club, that means a brand-new-feeling, affordable option within reach of Myrtle Beach.

After a 12-year closure, the summer of 2023 saw golf return to Johnsonville, S.C., thanks to Florence County, the City of Johnsonville and the golf course architect team of Rees Jones and Bryce Swanson. Using Ellis Maples’ original routing, they turned Wellman into a stately, enjoyable South Carolina take on parkland golf. The routing is walkable and the holes move through broad, pine-lined corridors that enjoy some gentle, broad elevation changes.

Thankfully, Jones has left behind his 1990s penchant for copious mounding and excessive bunkering; Wellman lays on the land better than most other courses under his name, with thoughtfully contoured greens that will keep regulars’ interest as they see a variety of hole locations over time. The risk-reward par-5 11th, which swings around a lake, is a stunner, as is the long par-3 18th, which plays across a corner of that same lake to the foot of the humble, cozy clubhouse.

Wellman will reward Myrtle Beach-bound golfers who are willing to travel a little out of the way to play a, well-maintained sub-$50 course with a down-home local feel.

Good fairways and greens but the cart path does need some work.

Golf was in good condition seval tee boxes for all level of golfers. Friendly staff . Pace of play was average.

cart paths could definitely use some serious work. Course layout map would be nice and the ability to pull up course on GPS would be nice . Additional yard markers needed as well.

The value for this track is off the charts.

It's a really decent course

Not overly difficult but difficult enough.

A little but of lippage on a few of the holes but otherwise its a really decent course.

Staff friendliness is great.

Pace is great.

Would recommend

We had not played this course since it closed a few years ago. We were delighted that the course had been restored nicely. The greens in particular were amazing. We will be back for sure.

Hard to believe the course sat for 13 yrs.

Greens are super decent. Although a few of the holes seemed to be lipped at the top. Fairways and tee boxes good.

Not a very difficult course

But such a great value to knock around for a few hrs. Great pace.

And staff exceptionally friendly.

Pro shop closes at 5 on weekdays.

Would recommend.

And will play again

Just reopen in june, green were perfect, fairway and teebox ok, pace off play 3h15 and friendly starter let us start on 10th tee. Golf now special 13$ 👌 made it a must

Card paths were in very bad condition. Course and greens in great shape. Greens had a lot of character.

Cart path only bc of rain made for a long day...but worth it!
