Grande Dunes Resort Club
About
Golf at Grande Dunes and Beach Club in North Myrtle Beach is played on a grand scale. The course is set high on a bluff overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, with panoramic views of the waterway and maritime forest. It's 7,618 yards, with a very difficult slope rating of 141. Five holes play along the waterway. The greens are grand, averaging 10,000 square feet with eight rotating pin placements, ensuring the course changes significantly from day to day. There is plenty of water, to be sure: the par-5 17th hole has water running down the entire left side and a moat fronting the green, for example. There are also some nice elevation changes; the par-3 14th hole has about a 65-foot drop, with the green jutting out over the waterway.

Great place to paly!
This golf course is beautiful, the staff was great, the price totally fair. Highly recommended.
5 stars all around
You honestly couldn’t ask for a nicer coat at the cost.Everything from the time we checked in to lunch after the round was about all you could ask for and more. Would definitely play here again on our next golf trip
Slowest PACE of PLAY
Take your pillow with you as the pace of play is the worst. The staff doesn’t care to do anything about the pace. Their response when I requested one of the useless starters/rangers to help was “we are about booking as many rounds as possible, daily”.
Great Sunday morning
Grande Dunes did not disappoint. Everyone was friendly, and I felt as they wanted me there. The fairways are pretty forgiving off the tee. Trouble starts on the approach shots. The bunkers were in great shape. At times it was hard to concentrate, beautiful views everywhere. As a 15 handicap, my only advice would be to play the appropriate tees, the course plays long and the wind blows pretty hard. Great round!
Good course but not what I've heard
Nothing bad about course. Staff super friendly. Greens were just ok. Course played a lot easier than I expected. Just for the money I was expecting more.
Worth the money
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.
Challenging But Fair
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
Must Play
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.
Very Nice, enjoyed it
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.
Avoid. Extremely slow pace of play
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!
Wrong deacription
Greens are rock hard, brown, and bermuda. Not bent as in the description.
Rock Hard Brown Greens
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.
