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.

Range balls
Course was excellent. Greens were also. Staff was great. First time I every had to collect my own range balls. Felt bad for the cart guy..He was not happy. But he tried his best. Will definitely keep it on the return list.
Ok
Nice little course. Greens were ok. Not a bad course for the price.
Hello. Thank you for visiting us at Indigo Creek Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Poor course maintenance
I was not expecting immaculate conditions given the price of the round, but the fairways and tee boxes weren't cut and had weeds. The bunkers weren't in great shape either: washed out, no sand, etc...
The course is a fun layout and would be a good value, if only the course was maintained somewhat decently.
Thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to apologize for your recent experience.

Nice layout
The course was in fair condition tee to green but the greens were slow and hard to hold with approach shots. Overall the course is a moderate challenge with hidden hazards for the 1st time player, luckily I played with some guys who had local knowledge of where to avoid. As long as you keep it in the fairway you should do ok, missing the fairway on some holes will cause trouble.

Needs improvements
With the number of options available in the Myrtle Beach area, it’s hard to comprehend how this one can compete with such poor conditions. Tee boxes were barely covered with grass and most tee areas were less than 10’ wide. The “grass” in the rough was often comprised of clover, dollar weed and other grasses that were anything but what you’d expect on an average quality golf course.
Greens are small but rolled okay. Sand traps were inconsistent with several filled with brackish water and weeds, others with ungroomed beach like sand.
There are too many really good options at many price points throughout the Grand Strand area to spend money and time on this one.

Saturday Shootout
I've lived on this course for 6 years and my wife is a Royal Member. We played in the Shootout for the umpteenth time. Our team score was the best in the mixed group, yet the "prizes" were awarded to two other teams. When we inquired we were told they didn't receive our scorecard. I handed it to the man in charge myself. When I approached him afterward, his response was "I don't know what to tell you, Bud". He doesn't even know my name and we're owners and regulars, even my band plays some gigs there. I will never play here, or step foot inside the clubhouse, as long as he is part of this course.

Nice Course, Great People
I play this course on a regular basis. The staff is friendly, course is in nice condition. They have great deals that you just can't beat! Try them if you are in the Myrtle Beach/Murrells Inlet area!
Keep in mind when reading reviews that some people are just miserable at the fact they are alive and breathing. :)
