Founders Club of Pawleys Island

If you are traveling to the Myrtle Beach area and looking to play golf, avoid this place. The club has loads of tee times made available on GolfNow, but it's very obvious when you arrive that you're not wanted there as an outsider, certainly by the members and by some of the staffers. Played here with my brother, we comfortably play 18 in 3:40. Got hit into twice by members on the front 9, once on the first hole. Group behind us was up our butts the entire front half, even though they run split tees here, so we made the turn and had the wait for about 20 minutes to be able to go off on 10. We shot 72, so we're not hackers either. Course is fine, conditions were fine, people were the problem, though the guys at the bag drop were cool. Just a very unenjoyable time. If your club is going to make tee times open to the public to make more money, just treat us like normal paying customers.

Y9u should give a chance to this course. Great value.

It is a good old course with really nice holes, particularly 9 and 12.

Would go back!

Wasn’t notified that the greens were punched until the cart guy mentioned it…

Nonetheless, the greens rolled incredibly well.

We played among the morning member outing but never really had to wait on a shot (not for long anyway).

Very friendly staff overall. Challenging course.

Course was nice even though greens and fairways were punched on Tuesday.

Would love to play again this fall.

The course staff and the restaurant staff was very friendly. The course greens had been punched, but the clubhouse let me know before I paid. However, they were very slow and bumpy. I would like to play again once the greens have healed. After our first 9 we stopped at the clubhouse to get a hotdog and drink. After we return to the course at hole number 10, there was three groups of golfers that were playing together that jumped in front of us. So the back nine was not played. We just replayed the front 9 due to the heat and the wait of elderly golfers and a group of women golfers. The course layout was very nice and enjoyable., However, I would love to continue playing my round. With so many options of golf course courses, I’m not sure I will play here again, but would like to have seen the back 9.

You are greeted by some of the nicest guys and they were more than helpful with directions with us being out of towners. Course is absolutely beautiful. It had poured the previous day and barely affected the course. Pace of play was slow but they explained that it’s tough with it being high traffic for the tourism. Overall amazing. Will come back.

Greens are in bad shape, which made for an overall poor experience. I won’t be back

Nice change from a lot of courses in the area. The mounding and waste bunkers made for unique holes.

Nice course, well taken care of. Staff extremely friendly.

The layout was very good. Fairways and greens were very good, as well. A little rough around the edges, but that is due to dormant Bermuda vs the actual course itself. I think is summer it would be very good. We had a really good time there. Pace of play was just fine. Recommend the course.

Decent course, played here often in past years. Found it extremely dry and sandy - heard no rain here for some time. Greens were nice. Pace was perfect. Joined group of 3, it was a good relaxing round (my first for this year). Price was perfect....
