Rating 78.1

Located in Little River, S.C., Eagle Nest opened in 1971 and was designed by Golf Course Architect Gene Hamm. The layout is laid out across 250 acres of gently rolling land, rare for a course near Myrtle Beach. The course has been upgraded recently and includes a set of "Perch" tee boxes that play over 8,100 yards, making it the state's longest golf course.

Super senior and player-friendly tee boxes up front have also been installed. This traditional low country layout features not only rolling undulations in it but mature Carolina pines, an abundance of wildlife and beautiful natural landscaping.

Hello, Mike. Thanks for reviewing our course. We regret to hear that you were unsatisfied with the conditions of the greens. We realize that good greens make or break a round. We are always working on the course conditions and strive to give our golfers the best experience with us. We hope to see you again soon!

WOW

We played here several years ago, and the course was in rough shape, which is why it’s been several years since we played here. What a pleasant surprise the shape of the course was in especially the greens. After our round I went inside to complement the staff who explained why the course had such a vast turnaround.. This will be a regular stop on my circuit when I’m in this area. Kudos to the management. Wonderful job.

Greens

The greens were too slow and not receptive. The fairways were sparse. For the money I expected better.

Will come back

Nothing spectacular with the course but it is a nice layout with well maintained tees and greens. Good value for the money. Watch out holes 16-17-18 they might come and bite you!

Course was fine; pariing was a challenge

Course was in very good condition for early April. Pace of play was good. Was paired with a heavy beer drinker and two novice golfers. Not the best.

Classic track

The course reminds me of a classic layout in North Carolina not a beach resort type track. It is a fun place to play.
