A great course, poor condition

We played in April, conditions were very dry attributing to the poor course conditions, so I would give it a pass on that. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. This is a course that would be a great play in the golf season.

Starters and Rangers

The starters/rangers were either grumpy they were for working the Thursday masters or were ball busters. Man O war/ Wild Wing plantation and Beachwood all got tips. I’m glad you guys didn’t. Also only course that needed carts in by 7 when sunset is 7:45. I would recommend beach wood way over this course. They probably only get value for being right by airport. If these guys were not as rude they would have gotten a cash tip. As a 12 some bachelor trip you guys didn’t bring the right vibes. And this is coming from someone who has worked on a golf course for ten plus years. C- for no southern hospitality.

Course needs a good bit of work. tea boxes all dirt greens also lacking grass just seems to get either a lot of play or being a municipal course is not getting support from the city of Myrtle Beach would be convenient to play if you’re flying out that day airport next-door, but it’s tired!!!

Great course, had a good time!

Booked as a single the Saturday before Easter. Play was a TOUCH slow with a foursome in front of us taking a while.

Might have been better with more space between times, our time on the first tee was 11, we didn't start till about 10 past & took 2 1/2 hours for the front.

Other than that the course was in great shape, driving range was grass and I was able to find a good spot to practice.

Will definer go back!
