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.

Pace of play

Although a fun and challenging course, I've never seen such a slow pace of play. This is easily a 4hrs or less round and it took over 5 hrs. I mean my gosh!! Greens were bare spotty as well.

Underwhelmed

Teed off early and didn’t catch up to the group ahead for 7 holes. Second 9 was slow as we were apparently following a League. Layout of the course is really nice and in its day would have been a great course, however it’s in rough shape. Tee boxes are tough, many of the greens need to be re-sodded as there are bare spots all over! Cart paths are bumpy due to tree roots heaving the asphalt! Course needs some love and TLC.

Disappointed Day on the Course

This was the second time I have played this course. My last time out was 15 years ago. Today was disappointing experience. The greens were horrible. Roughs were uncut and bunkers were not groomed. We paid $60 each to play this course today and this was more like a $20 course at best. With what they charge to play this course, it is obvious they do not invest back into the course. We will not return. I wish I had read a recent review of this course before we played today.

Not A Good Choice

Guy at bag drop was great, Very friendly and fun to talk with while waiting to tee off. But it went down hill from there. Course is rough and some of the greens are eaten up by something giving them large black patches. Fairways are like rock in most places. Pace of play was dismal. There are just too many courses that offer up a far better value in very aspect.

First time indigo

We enjoyed playing at indigo, the course is tight and lots of water but if you can hit it fairly straight it's not too bad, the staff was very friendly and helpful

Back nine needs a little work

Our foursome started on the back nine. Although the layout was ok, the course conditions were not so nice. The front nine was much nicer condition. Hopefully they can bring the back nine to a similar state.

Softer greens

The course was in decent shape, and most greens were rolling good enough to make puts. There are houses at risk on some holes and of course water hazzards.

Nice course, but not maintained

The course has a nice layout, but the greens are in poor condition at best. There are large areas of no grass on the greens at all and most of the cost is not maintained regularly. There’s no irrigation so this tremendous amount of dry spots. I played two days after it was raining and it was border in the sand traps.
