Indigo Creek Golf Club
About
Set in the heart of the Grand Strand's Lowcountry plantation area, Indigo Creek is laid out through large oaks and flowing creeks, especially the back nine, though the views have been somewhat spoiled by housing. The course is built over an old rice and indigo plantation with some nice elevation changes, lakes, waste bunkers and undulating greens. It's a Willard Byrd design, with Bermuda greens and a slope rating of 128.
Indigo Creek is another of those Myrtle Beach-area courses that fell into a disreputable state only to be saved by a new ownership group. One golfer who'd had a bad experience there described it after the refurbishment as the best-conditioned course in Myrtle Beach.
Indigo Creek isn't overly long at 6,744 yards (the shortest of its four sets of tees shortens to 5,921. It is an exciting course with an significant number of doglegs, bunkers and water. The back nine is set among giant oaks and gently flowing creeks.

Golf in December! Indigo Creek Photo submitted by Aldostin1 on 12/27/2019
Poor condition
Greens, bunkers and fairways need a lot of work. Most of the greens have a lot of burnt bare areas. Definitely needs a lot of good maintenance.
Starter very friendly and helpful.
In poor condition
Play another course. Needs important at this time. Green are as little burned from the summer. Give it some time for them to get the course back in condition.
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the condition of the greens. We appreciate your understanding and will work to improve the course conditions.
Rough around edges
You get what you pay for. This is a cheaper course that was fairly crowded and rather worn. Decent enough, but not stunning in any way.
We apologize if our golf course did not meet your expectations. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and we will take your feedback into consideration as we continue to improve our services. Thank you.
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Indigo Creek Golf Club!
Best value for the money
I doubt if you can find many other courses in the Grand Strand that can give you the value this course can for the money you spend. Some of their bunkers need a bit of work but the greens roll true without many undulations except on two holes.
The staff is the friendliest around and pace of play is usually not a problem.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review, bluemagoo. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Indigo Creek Golf Club!
Day after
The course was wet from the heavy rains the day before. Some traps were small ponds. People were friendly and very helpful. Even after a heavy rain I would come back.

Good value
Be patient, there is many water hazards, it's an excellent challenge to stay in the middle of the fairway. Enjoy!

Excellent layout, poor conditions
Water features on nearly every hole, though it's along side and doesn't come into play as long as you don't spray your shots.
Great placement of bunkering, mounds, trees and other strategy items.
Such a good design yet conditions make it worth no more then $35.

Loved the course
The staff were very friendly. Course was in very good shape. Piece of play was slow on the first nine, but no problems on the second nine. Had a great time. Would go back.

Slow play an issue
My second time playing here. I really like this course, but this time there was a problem with the pace of play. When we arrived for an early morning tee time, there were several groups lined up to begin at both the first and the 10th holes. Slow going all round, but the staff were nice and the conditions pretty good, except for some bare spots on a few of the greens.
