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
Good price from Golf Now
The course was in ok condition. You can tell they are probably struggling for money. There are so many little things that need to be done but there are no workers. I didn’t see one from 10am to 2pm.
Great Bang For The Buck
For playing in early January,, you never know what conditions are going to be like. My experience here were fantastic and look forward to return. Greens held shots and rolled true. Lots of leaves on course and in rough areas, but considering the season that was to be expected.
Indigo Creek
Nice course lots of challenges, water, dog legs, winter play grass mostly dormant as expected, tight fairways, putting was good nice speed good roll.
Old school course
Good old school course greens leave something to be desired
Golf Now round
This was our first time playing - we enjoyed it very much - a few of the greens may have needed a tiny bit of attention but overall very lovely!
Great round
I am in from Michigan this week and I played this course for the first time. I wasn’t paired with anybody and enjoyed the fact that I could play at my own pace and genuinely enjoy my round. The course was in good condition. I would definitely come back.
Getting better
Played a few rounds last year. This week, much improved from the tee boxes, fairways, and greens. Played behind a men’s league. Slow play.
Enjoyable
We had a good time, the course was in good shape, & for some reason not very crowded so we had a relaxing 18. Would definitely recommend.
Average overall.
Some of the greens were in rough shape.
A number of the fairways had hazards crossing them thereby limiting driving holes. Making it more like target golf.
Gem in the making
This course is on the rise putting effort into bringing it back. Greens verti seeded not long ago and results r quite promising tboxes freshly reseeded and growth is good will b cut as soon as infancy of new seed is well established good effort there as that will pay off in excellent tboxes. Great layout all club selections off boxes to put myself in position to score. Will play again
Rough conditions
From the time you enter the parking lot, you know thing aren’t good. Leaves, pine straw everywhere, asphalt in disrepair.
The course was pretty wet, so no roll, and the greens had damage due to disease. The course layout was great, just yardage marked poorly, as was the water hazards.
Staff was very accommodating, pace was great, so no field Marshall require, not that was one.
Seems like a very right community. Management clearly doesn’t put any Money into the course, what a shame
Better to spend your Money elsewhere for a better experience
Better than the first time
I had played here onetime a few years ago and the course was in need of some TLC.
It appears that this is taking place now. The course had a few wet spots, and the 10th green needed some help. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised and will play it again.
