Cold weather

My wife and I enjoyed our round despite wet fairways and cart path only. The cold, damp weather added to the somewhat challenging layout. Staff was friendly and professional. Would play here again.

Enjoyable round in sloppy conditions

Wet fairways meant cart path only and a sloppy round, but the course was well groomed and fun to play. I'll go back after a sunny stretch.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff.

FUN ROUND

Had a great day. Played with another couple from Canada and they knew the course which helped a lot. The course has it's challenges but is not so difficult that the average player can't play it and the experienced player will also appreciate it. Water and sand are placed in just the right places to make it fun. Would play it again.

Possibly Overbooked?

Had a 12:40 tee time but being a single was put with a twosome with a 12:10 time; which was fine with me. Finally teed off at 1:08. Waited every shot, every hole. Liked course pretty much but something wrong somewhere when you have to wait like that.

Wet Conditions

The layout of the course is very nice but the conditions were very wet. I asked one of the workers and he said that they had over seeded everywhere and they were watering every day. I guess that what made the conditions so wet.

Slow and wet

Played the course before but conditions have deteriorated. No visible course maintenance. Fairways were not cut and were very wet though it had not rained recently. The greens had not been rolled or cut in a few days. Tee boxes were not cut and you sank into the turf on set up. Pace of play was SLOW waited every shot. Arrived on time for tee time but had to wait some time to even get started. The starter seemed to be putting his friends off in front of scheduled tee times. ABSOLUTELY not worth wait I paid which was a HOT Deal and not worth the drive.

Nice course in good shape.

What I really liked about this course was how secluded the front nine is, no houses seen and you are in your own little world in the woods. Played with my son in 3 hours. A bit of a drive from MB but was worth it.

Great time

We were not aware of how far this course was from our hotel but decided to still go, and what an experience it was. Although it was golf path only due to lots of rain and sowing of new grass, we were very pleased. Not only did the rain stop just in time for us to play, but we had the course all to ourselves! No wait, no push and excellent reception from the guy on duty. We will definitely pass the word and come back! Thanks for a great time!

Diamondback

The course had just been seeded so cartpath only the greens were in great shape considering all the rain we have had. This is one of the best kept secrets in the Myrtle Beach area because it does take a little bit more time to drive to the course.
