Rating 73.2

This beautiful facility is located on 270 pristine acres at the North end of the Grand Strand. Blessed with a unique topography and large mature trees, the course meanders down to the inter-coastal waterway with scenic vistas to distract you at every turn.

This 6900 yard Clyde Johnston design is owned and managed by the same group that developed the fabled Heather Glen links and the service you have grown to expect from this organization is evident the moment you drive up to the clubhouse. Give this course a try the next time you vist the Myrtle Beach area. You won't be disappointed!

Glen Dornoch

Great layout, makes you think. Fairways generally good but spots where you were hitting of dirt, should have been GUR. Greens had been micro punched and over sanded also needed to be rolled.

Cart issues

The cart had the GPS in it didn’t work correctly. I was on cart path and it said I was not it happened 4 times was stuck for 10 minutes. I called clubhouse 4 times no answer finally on 5th try someone said they were bringing me a new cart. The gentleman had a bad attitude when he brought it out no apology nothing. I don’t think my wife and I will play there again if that’s the customer service you get. Not for $70 a round.

It’s a shame nice course but a lot of mosquitoes also. Don’t know if they spray off did not help.

Ruined Round

I feel bad writing this review because the starter and most the staff were great and friendly. Whoever is in the pro shop could not be bothered with us, wouldn’t even let you finish asking a question before he cut you off with an attitude. I thought it might have just happened to me but I asked the other 3 in my group and the group before and they all said the same thing. His attitude really ruined the round before it even started. I wouldn’t play here again just because people like him work there.

Bring your A game.

Glen Dornoch was in great condition when we played it recently.

It is quite a difficult course, particularly the back 9 and closing 3 holes.

Our group of 4 all struggled to get a read on the greens.

The staff were all friendly and professional.

I would absolutely play this course again and hopefully get a handle on the green s next time.

Beautiful Course

Glen Dornoch is a beautiful course. It’s well maintained and it has a friendly welcoming staff. It’s challenging course because you have to place your shots in the right locations in order to even think about scoring. I have played here the last couple of times I visited Myrtle Beach and plan to make it a must play each time I visit!

Somewhat Overpriced

The course was ok but not in great shape. They had artificial turf on a lot of the holes where carts go in and out to cart path. The greens were average but damaged on some holes. There were some pretty holes on the water.
