About
The course is owned by Jerry McLamb and built on his 500-acre family homestead. The front picks its way through old tobacco fields and vegetable gardens, and its flatness makes it susceptible to the coastal breezes that kick up in early afternoons. There is both bunkering and mounding, though both are subtle. The back nine winds through Carolina woodlands, and has a different feel with tree-lined fairways and rolling contours. The strongest stretch of holes on the course is from No. 15 to the closing hole. Overall, the course is a well-groomed, playable layout with large, bentgrass greens and a pleasing, traditional layout.
Crow Creek has made a name for itself among Brunswick County's 30-plus golf courses by supplying golfers with a playable, well-groomed layout replete with airplane hanger sized L93 bentgrass greens and sensibly designed golf holes.

Reviews
Dissappointed!
This is one of our favorite courses in Myrtle Beach/Calabash area, have played here often. This year we were very disappointed with the condition of the greens. They were slow and bumpy with many areas lacking grass, and tons of unrepaired ball marks. They were the in the worst shape of any of the courses we played. This is considered an upper tier course in the area, greens should be in better shape.
Great track but two weeks after punching the greens were not great
Overall great track. Course in great shape except the greens were pretty bad. Granted they punched two weeks ago but honestly I played other courses around that punched 6 days ago and they were in much better shape. I would have disappointed if I paid full price but got a good “hot deal” price.
Chantel!
We had major downpours on holes 10
And 15. This course was in great shape and the greens were rolling so true. I would recommend if you can play it that you do.
Unfortunate
This use to be one of the nicest courses in the area. Arrived and the cart attendants were talking to someone and never walked up so I grabbed them (Not a big deal). Went out and tee boxes and fairways were in fair condition. However, I cannot say the same for the greens.They were in pretty poor condition at best with the exception of a couple. It has been about two years since I played this course and it use to be in prime condition, sad to see it like this.
For $127 round on the weekend I would not recommend.
Great course
Always enjoy play Crow Creek. One of my favorite courses to play when I'm in the area. Definitely recommend.
worth the trip
Although I live in the area, Crow Creek is a course I will mention to others that may not normally venture out of N Myrtle or Myrtle.
The layout is challenging with a fair amount of water and hazards to keep you honest.
Greens are always in very good shape and roll true but not crazy fast. Enjoy!
Excellent
Awesome course in great condition. Extremely friendly staff.
Only complaint was a foursome of older gentleman in front of us that were extremely slow and would not let our twosome go through.
After our round, we enjoyed lunch and a drink in the bar which was very nice.
Overall a great experience. Will definitely play again.
Awesome
Everything about this course was great! Friendly staff and course layout flows great. Had a lot of fun with my group l. They have a nice range and a couple putting greens to warm up on. Overall great course. First time ever playing this course I shot a 94 and the second time I played 2 days later and shot a 90. With a20 handicap I don’t think the course was too hard or anything.
Northerner
The layout is nice and in pretty good shape. The staff was friendly and professional. The senior tee boxes were in pretty bad shape. The fairways were pretty good. The greens were good. It was better than most of the courses down here. It seems to be tougher to keep courses in good shape here. But this was one of the better ones. Don’t expect great conditions though. Prices are so high right now. But Golf now had a reasonable deal.
Great layout
Holes that make you think but a great layout. Conditions were super.
Beautiful
Its a Beautiful course. Price was very expensive. We only played cause I used all points to play there. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
A great time at the old Crow
I have been coming to the Myrtle Beach area to play golf for over thirty years and with all of the options available in The Strand I am now asking why have I never played this gem?! Enjoyed an early morning round as a twosome, pace of play was great, staff as friendly as any in the area and the food and drink hit the mark! Nice facilities and great conditions were all there, as well. Course layout is enjoyable with everything tight in front of you and the cart GPS makes strategic decisions a breeze. I look forward to my return trip to Crow Creek.
Great conditions. Just a bland layout.
Couldnt expect better course condition. They have some character on some.holes, but not mich. Greens and fairways maintained very qell.
Don't Sleep
One of the finest golf courses I've played in the area.

I have played there a few times and found the bent grass greens are usually not in good shape in July. They are a cool weather grass and have been much better in January when I’ve played there.
