Closing Soon...Enough Said
Poor condition both fairways and greens. Pay the extra money to play a well kept course. Completely understand as they are closing soon for renovations that drastically needed.
Issues with course
Greens were in horrible shape with disease spots on every green. Sand traps compacted not racked. Pace of play was okay, waited every hole. Course to my understanding will be closed near end of month for complete renovation. With all this in mind course should have offered a discount on thie green fees.
A Don’t Miss Golf Course
Whispering Pines was a great, affordable golf course. Wide fairways, wonderful views, wild life, and staff. Challenging for any player depending o n tees selected. Descent pace of play. Greens vs were very quick and true but many worn areas but playable. If we return to Myrtle Beach, a must replay. It’s directly across from the airport hut never an issue.
Could be a great course.
Course conditions weren’t great. Great layout but no one takes care of the course. $30 course at most.
Whispering Pines
Nice course with couple of really interesting holes. Super convenient from the airport if you are arriving or departing. The greens are small making scoring a challenge here. Worth the money for sure in my view.
Serene atmosphere
Played a morning round at Whispering Pines and it’s was an overall good experience. They are about to do a course overhaul so I can understand why the greens are in rough shape. The atmosphere of being surrounded by pine trees was a highlight. Course is fairly tight when you compare to a resort course like Grande Dunes. The greens are tiny with significant slopes (almost silly at times) which makes it challenging. Sad to hear they are going to be taking out a lot of trees in the remodel and there were signs that they have already started trees removal. I think with the regressing of the course will make a difference. If they slightly enlarged the greens by 30% and made them more level it would be incredible. Overall worth a play if you haven’t played there before so you can play again in September to experience the before and after.
Needs maintenance
Pretty park-like golf course with a lot of trees. Greens were in poor condition, fairways- were rough in spots and weedy on the edges. Needs an overhaul and they had signs saying the course would be closing from May 24- Sept to do repairs.
Great Course, ready for renovations this summer.
Great course, for a full review visit;

Bang for the buck ‼️
Nice lay out. Coarse is in good shape. Very little amenities. I was told they would be closing for upgrades at the end of the month. I played at a discount from my GolfNow app
Fun course!
Fun and challenging course. Fairways were in awesome condition. Greens need some work. Will go back!
