Greens were a bit sandy, but were smooth and rolling nicely

New sand in bunkers made for exceptional bunker play. The course has great large greens with lots of undulations. Tee boxes are also large and well maintained. The fairways were also large and wide on most holes. Several holes are right along the intercostal waterway which makes for some wonderful viewing. I played the white tees. Next time I will probably move back to the blue tees. This course would be a monster if played from the tips. As one example, #8 is a par 3 that plays towards a green right on the canal. Yardage from the back tee box…241. Yeah. Going to need a golf shot to hit the green.

Looking good since its 2022 renovation

A lot can happen in 20 years. Grande Dunes opened at the height of pre-Recession golf mania, when the majority of courses were built to be big and extroverted. Last year, after years of typical course evolution, its large, jagged-edged bunkers and huge, amoeba greens were restored, with some reductions in sand square-footage as a sop to playability. The project was a success, and now Grande Dunes is ready to continue to stand as something of a museum-piece of a bygone era in course development, and one of the top options in Myrtle Beach’s central district. The newly-renovated clubhouse restaurant, Terrazza19, is one of the beach’s best, too.

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.
