Pearl

So many to chose from in N Mrytle Beach but the Pearl holds up nicely. 27 holes, played the west 9; to the east 9. I like the lay out, some real nice golf holes. Two real cool par 5's on the west course. Definitely enjoyed the round. Would definitely go back. The staff was very friendly.

Nice layout

The good, nice lay out,, nice greens, friendly staff, good location.

The bad, Carts sucked, cart paths horrible, pace of play good until they put out a very slow foursome at the turn.

Not sure I'd play again due to the BAD.

Maybe once upon a time

The Pearl Golf Links probably was a great course some years ago. The layout is good. But the current conditions are not. I know the weather has something to do with it but anytime I see green paint around the fringes scares me. There is literally NO GRASS to play from around the greens. I understand the overseed but the fairways are so sparse you have a tough time finding a lie and pitching from 15 yards in is impossible from hard pan. The staff was great. The pace of play was really good. the carts were pretty beat up. Quite a bit of hidden water over hills that you can't see and end up losing a ball after a good shot.

Sadly, you can go literally across the street and find a really nice course at Thistle..fir less money.

Course is nice, challenging layout, generally in good shape for mid-February conditions. Cart paths need some serious work. Greens are in excellent shape.

Feel for Jane (below)

Reading the review below I can relate. In all fairness to the course it is usually guys in Myrtle who pressure the starter not to play with a lady. I have seen those looks from guys too...god forbid I ruin your drinking binge, play better than you or hope you'll be a gentleman with your mouth. On the other hand you have as much right to your tee time as anyone else.
