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 course great views
Beautiful course great condition lots of different tees to play from for all skill levels .greens firm and fast .the better player u are the more u will enjoy .practice facility is good so if u got time get there early to use range chipping an putting areas
Terrific course! This is my 2nd time playing it & it won't be my last!
Very challenging, you can choose from an INSANE 7600 yds course length, to a respectable 6,700 yds length (which my foursome played), to even easier shorter lengths! Course was in terrific shape and greens are difficult, fast, & fair!! Bring your A-game!
One of my all-time favorites
I play this course a couple times each year. It's on my all-time favorite list for many reasons; always well maintained, clubhouse top-notch, course layout is challenging yet score-able, and even the food at the restaurant adds to the experience. This is a must-play. If you like links style golf, you won't be disappointed with this one.
The staff alone gave this course 5 stars
I set up a tee time for 9:30 as a single and decided to get there 1 1/2 hours early so I could get some range time in first. The weather was not looking so promising with rain but it was opening up a bit. From the start the staff maintained the highest level of professionalism and courtesy that they made me feel like I belong there. The guy in the pro shop told me to simply talk to the starter if and when I was ready to possibly get out earlier do to the fact that a lot of cancellations were going to happen due to the weather. I did just that, hit a few free range balls and got started. The course was beautiful even with all the rain and minor flooding on the fairways and the greens were superb and lightning fast. People ahead of me didn't mind that I was hitting alone and if I caught up they were all nice and let me play through. If I was playing a foursome however I could see playing this course 5 plus hours easy. So from start to finish, from starter to beer cart lady and bag check-in crew to the greens keepers, the staff sold this course.
Beautiful and well designed.
Best greens I have been on in 2013! Fair but demands shot making off the tee.
Nice Layout
Very picturesque and well kept,greens had been recently aerated but not much affect on putts. Fairways are gorgeous.Lots of water but fair.
great value and course
Cant beat it for the money...waterway holes into the wind are some of the toughest on the strand...
Free range balls, nice practice area, great people and a solid course layout that's both fun and challenging.
Free range balls, nice practice area, great people and a solid course layout that's both fun and challenging. Come early and get in some good practice before your round. This course sits up above and along an inland waterway so wind direction and speed come into play. The course offers some nominal elevation changes and a welcomed relief from the pancake flat terrain of the other courses we played in the Myrtle Beach area.
Beautiful golf course !
Pace of play was the only issue. Excellent golf course with beautiful scenery. Great facilities.
Beautiful and well designed course
Everything was great about this course and except for the greed to get that extra tee time in. You play within the 2 hours as most places would like. Then when you make the turn you have to wait 30 minutes for the rest of the morning groups to go off before you can finish your round.
I know the money is important but start your tee times 30 minutes earlier.
We see it day in day out, what is killing golf, slow play, and then you go to play and the management of the golf course enables the slow play
beautiful views
starting from the tall bridge to enter the complex, to the holes along the causeway, especially the par 3 on the back
Greens were in transition.
Greens were in transition. Some very beautiful holes on this course. Very friendly to the average golfer. I'd play it again when I go back to Myrtle Beach.
Pricey Myrtle Beach course
Overpriced; greens not in great shape; unnecessarily long round, no Marshall's making any effort to move things along. Staff very helpful, however
Fair but Tough Layout
Offers a wide range of options on course difficulty from 6300 to 7700 yards. A fun course that is fair and no trick holes. Very good condition for early spring golf. I'd play it again.
One of the best in Myrtle Beach!!
Played this course as part of our golf package, immediately booked another round!! One of the best golf courses we have ever played in Myrtle Beach!
Very well maintained and fun to play
The greens and fairways were in excellent condition. Course layout was interesting to play with a good mix of hazards; water, sand, trees. Pace of play was excellent.
Great course, a bit difficult from back tee's but they offer many teeing area's so it all works out if you play to your ability.
Greta course in even better shape. New greens are excellent. Pace of play was on the slow side and it took us about 5 hrs plus to finish. Love the course and pace was the only negative about it. The staff was great from the pro shop to the bar and starters. I would definately recommend the resort course at Grande Dunes.
Excellent course.
I have played this this course a dozen times over the past ten years and only once in November was it in not great condition. I plan on returning as often as I vacation in the Myrtle Beach area.
In Great Shape
Fast and true greens, great layout, reasonable price and friendly service. My buddy and I filtered out many area courses down to this course and Dunes Golf& Beach Club. Both were exceptional for this being mid-February.
Requires every club in the bag!
Excellent layout in great condition. Greens were just re-done and were excellent for putting. Don't play the tees too far back as there are planty of challenges without making the course too long. We actually moved up a tee after 9 which made it more enjoyable.
