Length 7017 yards

Rating 74.2

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.

Challenging course

Started out on a cold morning. We were just a two some so the starter said we could hit an extra ball which was nice so we didn’t have to wait on every shot. Lots of water and have fun on the “Gambler” hole. Would definitely return!

North Course

Went off the back nine with my son and paired with a single. Pace of play was great and the greens were pure. Beautiful course and worth the money. Wished it was warmer but anytime you can golf with your son is priceless.

Great experience

Even on an early morning Saturday with good weather, the ranger/player assistant allowed me to play be myself going off at 810 am. My partners were delayed so they let me go. Pace of play was great on the F9. And slow on the B9. But more players fault then courses fault. Staff was great. Course was great. Waste bunkers are soft so play like a normal bunker OR hit ball first and not sand. Great experience, I would suggest to any golfer. I played from white tees. And shot 84. Please move up tees (as a course superintendent)

Very Good Challenge

Beautiful course. Well maintained. A real challenge, with many holes requiring target golf. We played with 2 locals who took the time to show us around and help with ball targets.. We would definitely play this course again.

Tough old style course.

Tight old school course where accuracy off the tee is key. Trees and hazards is perfects spots to force thinking and placement. Not a bombers favourite that’s for sure! Greens are great.
