Hole #6 Photo submitted by DintheRough17 on 01/29/2017
It took 3 1/2 hours to play 11 holes. I left are 11. Good condition though.
Bring extra Balls !
Unless you’re in the fairway, plan on losing your ball in the first cut.
Greens were in excellent shape and the fairways were not burnt out like many other MB courses.
Great value for your money and worth a 30 minute drive from North Myrtle
Great course, slow play
The course was well maintained, biggest issue arose on hole 7 when my group of two was waiting for the group of 4 ahead. Waited until hole 10 after the turn to play through was advised no, there was a group of 3 ahead of them. 🙄. Called clubhouse and they advised they would send someone out, guy advised that in 15minutes the pace of play would speed up. Found out that the players ahead were members, so It did not 3 hrs for 9 holes and constant wait, I didn’t buy enough alcohol for the round.
The female behind the bar was very polite, best asset to the course.
Needs a Marshall to help pace of play
Staff just average. The clubhouse is nondescript, accessible only via very steep stairs or very, very long handicap ramp. The course layout was good with a nice variety of holes. The fairways and greens were well grassed and maintained. Green speed was approximately 8 stimp. The bunkers could use more sand and better grooming -- footprints everywhere. The bermuda grass was too long and thin, allowing balls to drop completely out of sight. We lost several balls even when we could see where the balls had landed. Course signage is inadequate. The pace of play was extremely slow, with several foursomes ahead of us even at non-peak playing time. There was never a Marshall on the course to help pace of play. There are no water stations and no restrooms on the course.
Good value
Start was a little weird with a new employee behind the desk confused by my prepaid tee time and then the starter wanted to pair me up with a couple who weren’t that comfortable with the arrangement on a sparsely populated course. Before that, there were free range balls, a nice gesture, especially as it was my first round for 6 months.
Fairways and green were in good shape. Bermuda rough typically made off fairway balls difficult to find. All in all, a good experience at a bargain price.
Tough Course for a Newbie Golfer
This was an amazing course but it is a very difficult
Coarse to play for beginner/amateur golfers. We also chose to go on a day after it had apparently rained and it was very mushy. If you hit the ball in the rough or even on the sides of the fairway it takes forever to find it. Beautiful Greens! Nice coarse overall!
Challenging but playable.
For my round I was paired with another random single golfer. We had fun playing together. The course was in overall good shape. However, the greens were very slow, probably due to being recently verticut and sanded and they are not cutting them low while they heal. But they did roll pretty true, just slow.
The course is older, so a little rough around the edges but the course is not devoid of grass. Plenty of grass everywhere with all the rain they have had lately. However, the mechanic needs to work on keeping the reels of the rough mower the same level and sharper. There were areas everywhere that the rough was striped with high and low grass because the reels were not mowing the same height. Also, the the general height of the rough was too deep for resort/beach golf. Balls just off the fairway were sometimes disappeared and hard to find because the rough was so tall. It’s not the US Open, cut it shorter for the average joe.
Overall experience was fun even though I had an off day with my swing.
Great Course, Excellent Staff!
I play here often and course is always in nice shape! Nice carts, fairways, rough, and greens. The staff is amazing. They are always so friendly and welcoming.
Great course for the money
Course was in great condition considering the amount of rain the have had, might be the best greens in the area, highly recommend
Good Course
Course in great shape, pretty tough challenge, straight play is greatly rewarded.
Good course for the money
Pretty nice course, nice fairways, greens where in good shape, although small. Only complaint was the tee boxes needed mowed. Not just for height, but most boxes had sprouts sticking up that were well past ankle high.
Well maintained track
First time and was pleasantly surprised at the good condition of the fairways and greens late summer. Also, the course offers a good value with reasonable rates. Pace of play was great for a Saturday midday.

Course is well laid out and very very good value for money
