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.

Getting pars was sub par

This course was needs a lot of updating. Lots of weeds, some areas had no grass and greens were rough.

I did like the layout and the challenge but considering the weather this year things should have been lush.

Gave us 2 FREE Rounds!! Great People Make the Difference!

It's the people that make the course! They were going through some renovations, and it was the first time my son and I played there. They told me ahead of time that their grounds were being worked on and unlike any other course I've ever played, the man gives me TWO FREE ROUNDS. He tells me to play today and then come back another time and play it again for FREE! What other course does that? You've got a loyal goer to your course. Thank you Indigo Creek! The course wasn't bad though. Just some patches on the greens, but it wasn't terrible.

I really enjoyed Indigo Creek

The course is very scenic. Wildlife, water, landscaping. The bunkers were in very good shape (unlike many courses I’ve played). Bathrooms on the course. No water coolers as far as I saw. I will play here again when I visit MB next year.

Not great

I do not have a long drive, the amount of roll is a big factor in reaching the greens in regulation. The fairways were very "hairy" and the ball just died when landing on the fairway. The greens were OK. This course was much better back in December. I like the layout and the beauty of the course, but was very disappointed at the current condition.

Fun course for all ages.

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our round here. The layout was great. They had a small issue with a few of the greens but they did tell us before we started and gave us a free round with no expiration date so we can come back next time we’re down. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Good hole layout.

The greens had some issues. However the golf pro told us about the situation when we arrived and even compt us 4 free rounds for the inconvenience. Will definitely be using the free rounds later in the year.

Best Golf for your Money

Many courses you play only care about one thing. The money. The gentleman in the pro shop actually asked me if I paid for me and my son’s round on GolfNow. When I let him know I did, he said they were charging $20 less because the greens were aerated and the holes were moved around. He actually gave me two free passes to come back and play again. The course was in good condition but most of the greens were rough. Still a great day and worth the money.
