Myrtle Beach National Golf Club - King's North Course
About
For years, the King's North Course at Myrtle Beach National has been the most requested and best recognized golf course on the Grand Strand. The par-3, third hole with its island green and South Carolina-shaped sandtraps has become the signature hole for Myrtle Beach. King's North features some dramatic and unique holes. The par-5 sixth hole is nicknamed "The Gambler" and features an unusual island fairway which offers golfers a risk-reward short-cut to the green for a chance at eagle.The 18th hole, nicknamed "The Bull's-eye" by Golf Magazine, is a sight to behold. More than 40 sandtraps guard either side of the fairway and the green reaches out into a lake offering, at times, a very tempting pin placement.

Wow
Amazing layout- if you are in Myrtle add this to your must play
Great choice
First was greeted by Luc who noticed my Quebec licence and greeted me in French, a first in the two months here. Beautiful pro shop, with excellent service. Very nice grass range. Played the North, fairways were very good for early spring, love the grass, not the typical tight lie kind, so easy to make good contact on ball. Greens were perfect to putt, average speed, but firm on approach shots, so they did not hold well. Bunkers had nice sand, may a few up and downs. Glad I finally played here, it was on a bucket list of courses in the area.
Excellent condition, staff was great.
Great, will return again. Fantasyic conditionand layout. . Just wish courses had rangers checking pace of play. Had to skip a hole, group ahead was at least 2 holes behind. Anyone behind them was constantly delayed.
MB Kings North
Starter was great and friendly - gave us tips on the course which were very helpful. Course in great shape for this time of year. Front 9 re-done and back nine will be done in beginning mid-May. A lot of fun. Love the layout.
Premium price....Not premium condition or options.
Played in January. Course was in good condition, but not in the condition that you would expect for a premium course at a premium price.
The good: Bag drop guy was one of the friendliest and most helpful we have encountered.
Greens were very good and quite fast.
There were a lot of crews working on the bunkers and most of them were in very nice shape for this time of year..
The not so good: Fairways were just fair, lots of bare areas. Looks like they scrimped on
overseeding..
Could use some better direction signs to some hole.
We expected a better conditioned course for the price and the fact that it is considered one of the Premier courses in the area. Will not be in a hurry to return.
Overall Poor Experience
I visited last year and faced issues with getting a rain check after being forced to play in the rain, despite a major storm warning. The Marshall assured me it wouldn't be a problem, but the pro shop disagreed. When I called back with my reservation details, I was told that without one of their cards, they couldn't track my visit and wouldn't issue a rain check. Be aware that they provide no leeway on this
Excellent Day of Winter Golf
King's North at Myrtle Beach National is definitely worth the price. Excellent layout...you gotta have ALL the shots. Course was in great shape considering the calendar. I'll put this one on my list for my next trip to Myrtle.
Wanted to play for years and finally did
Absolutely beautiful course. I can’t bring myself to pay summer tee times but we had perfect weather in December and a great deal on the tee times. Course was everything I hoped it would be. Great course and a great time!
Front 9 Renovations “Superb”
Great course will be fantastic when back 9 completed in 2025.
Terrible course management
Pace of play was awful. 3 hours front nine. Their fault. Jammed too many groups out without timing them
Enjoyable course
MBN - Kings North is a nice track. Starter allowed us to get out earlier than our scheduled tee time which allowed us to shoot through in well under 4 hours - a pleasant surprise. Only criticism is exceptionally slow greens.
Poor green conditions
The course layout is great but the greens are uncut and which leaves them being very slow. So slow that it ruins the experience.
One of our Myrtle Beach favorites
We have been playing this course on our annual fall trip to MB for over a decade and always enjoy the layout and reliably good course conditions. The recent front 9 renovation has made it a little tougher. It's also a pretty course, with a lot of birdlife.
Myrtle Beach National
Great layout with some memorable holes. The greens on the front 9 were better than on the back. The course had some construction on going. Where new sod had been laid, a ball would often find a gap between segments that should have had ground under repair either marked or noted by the starter.
Forgot to mention. Why does a premium course with premium pricing not had GPS??
