The Long Bay Club boasts a Jack Nicklaus Signature design that is consistently ranked as one of the top golf courses in South Carolina, a major accomplishment when you're competing with golf destinations such as Hilton Head and Kiawah Island. The landscape showcases the beauty of the Lowcountry with forests of pines, dogwoods, and maple trees divided by clear blue streams. The golf course design closely mimics the natural contours of the terrain but there are also countless large, man-made mounds that were seamlessly sculpted into the surroundings. It is considered one of the toughest golf courses on the Grand Strand. Golfers will face numerous bunkers that are seemingly bottomless as well as vast waste areas. The signature hole is the par-4 10th, which features a u-shaped waste area that completely surrounds the fairway and then crosses in front of the elevated, contoured green.

One of the Nicest Courses & designes in Myrtle Beach

I have been Playing this course at least once for the past 10 Yrs, It is a Beautiful Layout & You can make it as tough or as Playable as you desire. Depending on tee Box Preference. It is always well maintained, A Challenge & Joy to play. Also of course it is a Nicklaus Design. Nothing else needs to be Said. OUTSTANDING !
