Grande Dunes Resort Club

Beautiful course that is challenging on every hole. From distance, shot decisions, pin placements with no flat surfaces in sight on a green, the average golfer will be in for a surprise. For some pleasant, others not so much. The course rewards well placed shots with great opportunities into the green at and at the hole to score, but the opposite can be the said as well. Had aerated 2 weeks prior but had already return to a playable condition. Will be back to play the course in ripe conditions and maybe not when the rain traps us for an hour under cover 11 holes in.

This was my first time playing Grande Dunes. I found the course to have a challenging yet accommodating design for all skill levels. Fairways are wider than I expected, bunkers are designed to be provide difficulty without ruining a round, and hole layouts that provide variety between holes. This is a well designed golf course that I look forward to visit again. With this said, the greens are still recovering from recent aeration. They are still rather slow and sandy; however, the maintenance staff seems to be doing an excellent job recovering them. This isn’t a dealbreaker for me, but it’s disappointing this wasn’t communicated until I checked in for my tee time.

This course plays long and has an awesome track and there is a test every hole

I have played about 12 courses in Myrtle, and this right at the top of the list. Greens were great, fun layout. Not crazy long from the middle tees, exactly what we needed.

Course was in great shape, we played on a Monday, so there was a little maintenance action going on, but did not hinder our good time. Pace of play did get a bit slow during the round, and ranger didn't seem to care. We did play in just over 4.5 Hours so not the worst I have seen. Saw the beverage cart just one time, and you don't go back by the clubhouse when you make the turn, so got a little thirsty out there. Course it self is very nice, and I would play it again. Greens were in great shape, and ran pretty fast, loved it.

Pace of play extremely slow even after reporting to staff who did nothing to help nor express concern. Five excruciating hours waiting on EVERY shot for 18 holes. Will not return!

Greens are rock hard, brown, and bermuda. Not bent as in the description.

Highly over rated. Nice layout. Greens are a disaster. Rock hard. Impossible to hold a shot. Brown. Dry. Extremely Fast. Not worth the green fee. Many better courses in MB for much less money. First time playing and will be the last. Something must be wrong that they have left their greens get so bad.

Grande Dunes was a nice track with a cool layout. I played the day after a couple inches of rain so course was very wet. Green speeds were down but were in great shape along with the fairways.

This course has lots of water and lots of White stake OB so make sure you bring some balls. Great gps to help you along way. I was a big fan of holes 4-7. And then a big fan of 15-18 beautiful scenery. Thought you would see a little bit more of the intercoastal waterway but oh well. Good option to play but thought the price was a bit high. Overall good experience.

PS the Starter was Outstanding. One of the best ive seen.

One of the best parts of the course are views of the intercoastal waterway, along with generous fairways and good conditions. Loved the GPS in the carts which sped up play.

Greens are NOT bent grass as it says on several sites but have been changed over to championship Bermuda. As expected these have a very hard surface. Great for many rounds of golf, not so great for shot making.

First time I've played the course, am a 8 handicap and enjoyed it. Greens rolled good and medium fast. Plenty of bunkers guarding the greens but placed fairly to not overly challenge the average golfer. Conditions seemed good from tee to green.

Staff was okay but we only interacted with the person taking payment. Most staff were careful amid the pandemic. However, the bag guys still want to take your bag and walk 5 feet to put on the cart without wearing masks, gloves and/or changing gloves or wiping hands between bags, no indication if they are tested each day, no distancing, etc. I know SC has different requirements than other states, but they should give the option to put our own bags on the cart and maintain distance. Another course wiped down our whole cart including the bag strap for us.

As expected beer was almost 5 bucks a can. That's a bit ridiculous. Cut the price in half and see sales go up triple vs watching many "sneak" beer onto the course.

I would play here again however, and had a really nice time with friends.

Played here before for a lot more money and course was in good shape with lightening fast greens. This time even though it should have been great for the time of year, the greens had bare spots in places with aerated squares on a lot of greens. The fairways were just okay but subpar also. Doubt will play here again as the price is usually steep but with COVID cut rate of 49 it was about right. Nice facility in sub par condition for this time of year. The reason I wouldnt go back is I was assured the greens were in and I quote '" PHENOMENAL " shape before I booked the day before. A LIE. i didnt drive 5 hours to play a subpar course and won't again.

This is a must play course in the founders club package. The layout is pretty open with the best GPS system in Myrtle beach guiding you around the course. The practice facilities are top notch. Golf balls are waiting for you on the driving range and the short game practice area is as good as it gets. Only negative is the greens were top dressed which made them a little hard to read. The greens were not breaking like the last time we played here and I believe the top dressing was the reason. This golf course is so much fun to play. The views of the inter coastal waterway are unreal. The houses on the course are unreal almost showing off. This course is a must play.

This has to be my least favorite courses in Myrtle Beach. It is a bland layout. Nothing memorable about it except the conditions because it is in bad shape.. This course needs some serious work. For the price it is not worth it.

This is one of the nicest courses I've played in MB. The layout and conditions are absolutely exceptional. There are some great views on the Intercostal and some lavish homes on property. The fairways and greens were perfect. Plenty of water and bunkers out there but it's all right in front of you. The staff was pleasant and courteous. A must play.

course was the favorite from half the group. Very scenic along the waterway and not having to pay for range balls sits well with the group. Staff at course was very professional and helpful. WE WILL BE BACK!!!

I played yesterday with 6 other friends. Being a PrimeTime member we decided to spend some extra $ and play Grande Dunes. They lost several greens last year and were advised they had been repaired. I live in the area and play weekly. This course was the worst of any I have played this year..,tee boxes, greens, fairways. We have always enjoyed this track and looked forward to returning....not this time. It will be along time before we decide to return. There are many other PrimeTime / Founders courses that are in excellent condition. Hopefully things will improve.

When Grande Dunes opened in the early 2000s, it brought a new aesthetic to Myrtle Beach. It took the Tuscan tiled roofs and general Mediterranean feel that abounds at many Florida communities and introduced it as an upscale option on the Grand Strand. A proud clubhouse and one of the area's best practice facilities anchor the Resort Club.

The golf course very much follows that same sensibility. It's big, broad-shouldered and affects an air of luxury that visiting golfers enjoy. The course is always in good shape, and the stretch of holes along the Intracoastal Waterway is memorable. The course also tests one's lag-putting skills, as the greens are large (though seem to have shrunk a bit in recent years). It is one of the more sought-after courses in Myrtle Beach, and mostly delivers on its promises.
