Great layout , course condition was pristine ; pace of play terrific
Will definitely be back ; best course in the area hands-down. Pricey but worth the money particularly if you can snare a hot deal.
Great Condition
Played Stewart on Saturday. Course was packed but with 10 minute tee times the pace of play was good. Greens were perfect and extremely fast. Loved the course and will be back. Probably the best value on the strand.
Best Kept Course on the Coast
The bag crew greeted me with a smile. The course is maintained as well as ANY course along the Carolina coast and is very challenging.
The GM, grounds crew and everyone who works at this course should be proud of the experience they provide.
Definitely worth playing.
This was our last of 3 on a trip to Myrtle. We had a 1.5, 4.2, 20 and 24 in our group. This was the course that we all enjoyed the most.
It was playable off the tee for everyone and water carries were manageable for the higher handicap players. For lower handicap players it still required a good shot to the proper section of the green to get a good look at birdie. Slopes that ran near holes could leave you some slick down hill putts.
Also, the club sandwich is a triple bread sandwich!! That was a nice touch to the traditional club.
Good layout and condition
Greens were in great condition.
Fairways were very wide and forgiving.
Some blind shots, but mostly able to anticipate the next shot.
Winner winner chicken dinner
Not the cheapest deal around, but you’ll have to look hard to find one better. Played in 3.25 hours. Wish we had to wait more. Didn’t want to leave.
Ocean Island golf
Great course challenging layout very good service and course conditions
Definitely a great option for costal NC golf
Must go if you are anywhere near Myrtle!
Blown away by the hospitality when we arrived! Great time. We had no problems with pace as we were right now n schedule for our back nine. And those seats in the golf carts are the most comfortable seats we ever sat in at any golf carts! Will be back next year!
My favorite course
The course is in excellent condition. A really fun course to play.
Amazing course - botched scheduling
It’s a really spectacular course. Wow. Perfect condition. Beautiful hole after beautiful hole. Challenging but doable from Blues. Clubhouse is like country club.
However- they have a weird botched set up that if you are the first out and finish your 9 earlier than 10, you need to wait for the 2nd 9 until 10. I get the first tee time where I go so that I can play at a normal pace and get back home to have a full day of work or hanging w fam. Waiting for an hour + between the 9 makes this a 6 or 7 hour day door to door and screws up the momentum after the 1st 9. Bottom line is you pay for 18 why should you have to wait an hour in the middle of a round.
They should offer a straight through rate and use one of their 9s for that, and a lower rate to wait an hour after 9.
Maybe they do it to max out on the # of groups and to survive as a club $$$ - however despite the amazing course I won’t be able to go back again until they fix this.
Good track, a little overpriced
Played the Stewart to Mackay route. Stewart had some interesting holes but it seemed fairly average to me. Mackay was a much more exciting 9 in my view although both gave a fair test. Course is was in as good of shape as expected in the summer heat and the beverage cart came frequently which was a plus with no water on the course or coolers in the cart. Overall, I think this experience was slightly overpriced for the hot summer days. I would pay $90 in prime season but in July it was a bit excessive all things considered.
Top Five course on the Grand Strand
The course was in great shape. Never disappointed.
Green rolled true, fairways were plush.
Played Cameron and Stewart.
Lots of water and green side bunkers.
Top notch course
this is an excellent course immaculate tee ti green. On par with tobacco road, tpc wakefield, pinehurst number 4, river landing. Basicalky a private course letting you play for now until membership numbers increase. Only complaint got behind some members and ranger said he could not ask them to let play through.
