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.

THE WORST
Can't think of a worse course I've ever played.No maintenance what so ever.Tee boxes had longer grass than most rough.Greens were just terrible.I could go on,,but why?
DO NOT PLAY HERE
One of the worst courses I’ve ever played. No exaggeration. Greens are unplayable. Tee boxes are atrocious. Groups sent out on top of each other.
Save your money and play elsewhere.

Course has potential
This course has potential but needs work to get it up to conditions. The greens were in terrible shape, the tee boxes were full of divots that had not been filled and repaired. The fairways were just ok but many areas that had not even been mowed. The course just needs some work overall and for the price you can find a course in much better condition to play in the area.
Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to the staff. Thanks for visiting Indigo Creek Golf Club!
Had fun but it needs work
Met with friends for the first time in 45 years. Had a great time but course needs lots of help. Greens were terrible.
Played this course many times back in 2006-2009 and remember it being much better.
Still hard not to have a good time golfing in perfect weather.

Nice course, poor greens and traps
The course is pretty. Lots of water, interesting doglegs. Most sand traps had no sand to speak of. Greens were mostly in poor condition. That was very disappointing.

Great day, slow play
The course is beautiful! However they need to have a ranger on weekends at least. Almost 6 hours for 18 holes is ridiculous. We did not even get to finish the 18 holes because of thunder storm rolled in.
The course is tricky, and fun. However if you go on a weekend and can only get an afternoon tee time, plan on 5.5 to 6 hours for 18 holes

Greens need work!
First time playing. I enjoyed the course layout but was very disappointed in the greens. They seemed basically bare.
