They charged $3 tax addition to $39 which is due at course per Golfnow.

They don't have clean green throughout the course.

We’ll be back!

Played 18 holes in less than warm weather but found the course to be challenging and well groomed. Realized after we left that our Garmin GPS was still in the cart. Contacted the staff next morning and they found it for us. Great job guys!

Slow play and poor Greens

The slow play on this course ruined this day of play.

They booked a lady's tournament which the ladies in front of us took half an hour to play each hole.

Greens were in poor condition and unable to make any puts with all the bumpiness.

Course had a nice layout but absolutely no ball washing facilities on the carts or at each hole!

With the choice of many golf courses in the Myrtle Beach area this would not be on my top 20 list.

Good value

This course has a very interesting and challenging layout. I like the fact that there are not a lot of houses around the course, feels more like what I play up north. The tee boxes were a bit beat up, and the greens were very bumpy. But i guess that is to be expected at this time of year.
