Crow Creek Golf Club
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
Greens terrible
The greens are a mix of bent grass and Bermuda. They were very bumpy, there were patches of sand in the middle and they were extremely slow. The ball would roll and then stop just like it was on fly paper or something similar. Not worth the money
Crow Creek
Fantastic conditions for our round at Crow Creek! Tee boxes, fairways, greens - they were all pristine. We played first thing in the morning, so pace of play wasn't an issue at all.
The course has a pretty easy layout. While water does come into play on several holes, there aren't really any forced carries, lay-up holes, or any real placement shots.
The clubhouse was beautiful. The range and practice greens are among the best you will find. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
I would recommend a nice, relaxing round at Crow Creek.
Punched greens were not pleasant
First time here. Played 50 golf courses in Myrtle Beach and decided to try it since other people in PA recommended it. Rained day before so course was extremely wet. Greens were not cut in a long time. and it was not pleasant to putt. Clubhouse indicated greens were punched 4 weeks ago, but due to amount of rain, are not able to have grass grow properly. Top dressing was prominent. Fairways were playable after water evaporated after 14 holes. Staff was extremely nice especially guys who loaded clubs on cart. Would probably play when conditions were much better.
Always a favorite
Grandfather loves playing this course when we're on vacation and it's only 15 minutes away from North Myrtle Beach up US 17. The course was in great shape. Many challenging, but fair holes and the greens run true. Will definitely play again.
Not in Myrtle Beach!
The main problem I had with this course (I played in an outing here) was that I had to drive by so many comparable or better courses to get here. If you're staying in Myrtle Beach, there are just too many better options closer. There aren't any real signature holes on this course, in spite of a fantastic clubhouse, it's just not worth a drive. Fun but not special.
Nice Track
Nothing tricky. Very nice solid course in very good condition. Price is in line with nicer courses in the Myrtle Beach area. Came with lunch in the grill which was surprisingly tasty.
Greens were in terrible shape in October. Fairways were trying to come back from disease conditions. Not worth the money right now for sure
