Great condition
We had played Arcadian Shores about 4 years ago and it was not in that great of shape. We we're disappointed to say the least. So we avoided playing there ever since. We just recently read where they made some major improvements to the course. Well we decided to give them another try while we were in town for a few days. WOW not the course I remembered. The course was in spectacular shape and this is January. All new cart paths, all new greens, all new club house and bathrooms on the course and the fairways were great. The greens, I don't know what kind of grass they are but it almost looks fake. They roll really nice. It is going to be in really nice in the spring/summer. Definitely worth the time to play now.
The Scenary
On the waterway... views might not get too much better.... front 9 is very much where you need to score... back 9 will get you. I love playing this course!
Nice course
Its a must play course clubhouse is going through major renovations they have a trailer setup as proshop not a big deal still works.Staff were very friendly.
Great course in great shae
Played this course on Tuesday and had a great time. Fairways and greens were in excellent shape. Course was full of golfers and we still finished our round in less than 4 hours. Staff was very friendly. You should play this course when you are in town.
Great bang for your buck
First time playing Arcadian Shores. Made tee time the night before. Front nine played under 2 hours. Course was in decent shape for winter. Old Reese Jones design, and you can see his attempts at protecting par. A lot of bunker carries to greens. Fun layout, perfect challenge for my 3 kids. Will go back for sure. Conditions aren't like the high end courses, but for $33, great deal !!
come a long way
I have played Arcadian Shores many times and I have been amazed the past few times how hard they have worked to restore the conditions to where they were years ago. Frank and his Superintendent have the course in the best condition, greens are fast and true, fairways are lush and bunkers are in good shape. The elevations changes and doglegs make a golfer have to think around the course. when the new club house is done they will have a top notch facility at a great price.
Maybe 20 Years Ago
The layout of this course was good, but the maintenance was pure junk..
Leaves everywhere, hard bunkers, a dark green different type of grass growing on the greens, in bad shape.
Putting Green rolled fast and true, greens on the course were just awful. Couple guys in our group played this course 20 years ago and said it was in perfect shape, not the day we played.
Fairways were hard and erratic. Just a bad round of golf
Great course to start your Myrtle Beach golf trip.
Course is well maintained. Good course to start your golf trip with. The course is laid out in front of you. No gimmick holes. Good ole golf course.
Great conditions. Challenging over water holes.
Play from the blues to see the beauty of the course.
Rewards good shots with lots of birdie opportunities
Good course for staying on top of your game from tee to green.
Easy to get tee times
Conveniently located. Really nice staff. Needs new cart paths.
A nice course, fair and challenging.
Liked the course, decent shape.
Felt a little rushed, it was crowded but I guess that's expected.
Good but not great
Several places along cart paths near greens with no grass, paths need to be redone because they are very rough. Clumped grass left by the mower In many places. More than I allow in my own yard and I am no fan of yard work which my yard shows.
great course even in the rain
I played this course in the pouring rain. It only took me 2 1/2 hours to play. The course held up well with all of the rain
Had Fun.
Location of the course was great for us. Enjoyed playing and would go back. Pace was good. Greens were good. People were friendly.
Nice layout of holes, pace of play was good
Played here for third time while on vacation, greens and fairways were ok but other parts of the course need repairs or refreshing. Clubhouse ,restrooms are dated need re done.staff was friendly. Course is ok to play but it doesn't have the wow factor that others in the area have.
Great value at the beach.
Still a good course. Undergoing some course improvements like taking out excessive trees and cart path repairs. Fairways and greens in very good shape. Staff was great. No GPS - bring your Golf Buddy or rely on sprinkler heads. Great value. Will return to play. Central location in NMB.
Great Golf Course
I first played Arcadian Shores in 1980. It was one of the premier golf courses in Myrtle Beach then, and it remains so over 30 years later, even after nearly 100 courses have been added along the Grand Strand. It's a classic, outstanding design featuring an abundance of trees, bunkers and scenic water hazards. The greens were excellent!
Not somewhere u want to play if u want to play in 41/2 hours
We arrived on time to the tee and waited ten minutes to hit played the first hole in 20 minutes 2nd hole and that is the adventure. Their was FOUR GROUPS WAITING TO. HIT. I have been playing golf on public courses for 25years and I have never seen anything like this. Now further things that have happened is when we told the ambassador that there were open holes he said that they were playing for money that is why play was slow. As we were coming up on the 15 hole we looked to the hole next to us and on the green were 7 GOLFERS on the same GREEN. This place was totally out of control. Not enjoyable at all. And will not be returning to this course at all. TOTAL TIME TO PLAY. 6 HOURS
