Fun Course Worth Playing

Had played the East prior but first time on the West; the Pearl has 36 fun holes of golf. Played Pearl West on Labor Day which was a few days after a tropical storm doused the area. So the greens were very soft and very slow. Lots of water on the course and most bunkers had standing water. Otherwise the course was in good shape with only a few greens with bare spots and few spotty tee boxes. Good layout with a nice variety of lengths with all par 5s being on the long side. Nice finishing scenic holes along the Calabash river.
Only complaint was that I had intentionally booked the 1st tee time (7:30) as a single on GolfNow with the intent of playing in 2 1/2 hours. When I arrived at the course they said they had a policy of no singles off as the 1st tee time and had me wait for a twosome that had the 8:00 time. Still got around in about 3 1/2 hours and enjoyed the pairing.

Great conditions on a scenic course

We played on a Sunday around noon. The guy at the check inn said, that it is a very nice course, and he was right. Everything (tee boxes, fairways, greens) was in great shape. The layout - we played the east and the west course - shows a lot of varieties. We loved especially the the scenic view over the marsh and on the beautiful club house on hole 9 and 18. No complaints at all. Just a perfect place to golf and definitely worth the money.

Nice course

We played each nine on a particularly windy and cold, but sunny day. The course was in very good condition, the wind made it harder than it would otherwise been but still fun. The bar was very nice and all the staff friendly and helpful.

Nice track for the Canadians!

If your looking for a place to play that is open, decent greens and nice scenery then this is right up there. It's a quick drive from those staying in North Myrtle or Little River.

OK value for the money

There is some variety in the holes so make sure you look at the diagrams on the card before
It was a bit of a long day due to it being cart path only.and the course was wet. Obviously no one is at fault for this.
Greens were very slow on this day
