Great Course for the Price
The Layout is challenging. Good risk reward. It you hit good shots you are rewarded. There are some easy holes and some not so easy holes. Great balance. Not many houses on the course. Fun to play.
Loved it...
Worth the trip fromMB South,
The round was cursed by the slow play which is sadly preeminent in Myrtle Beach😡. Course etiquette is non existent which is another feature of American golf😡. I don’t think most vacationers have any knowledge of ‘call through’ or any idea of how to play at a reasonable pace. Letting faster groups through can save them 30-40 minutes on their round! Yes we are on vacation but it should never be acceptable to take 5 hours+ to play a round of golf in a buggy…EVER,!! Players need to be aware,of all players not just their group!
That said the course was in great condition and the greens were also good👍. No fault with staff and I had a Frank exchange about the above with the Pro!!!!!! Depending on where you are staying on the Beach the course is well worth a visit.4 Stars if it wasn’t for the curse of slow play!
Hidden gem
Amazing the improvements that have been made. Worth the trip out to Loris SC
All good
Played around 10am on a windy Thursday. Course is overall in very good shape, even if it was path only due to yesterday's rain. Tee boxes, fairways and greens are as good, as they can be during this time of the season. Staff was friendly. Pace of play was overall good, even if we we got stuck as a twosome between foursomes and the walking from the paths to the ball extended the playing time. The layout is nice, with narrowing fairways between big trees. All greens are shaped like a turtle, so you never get an easy approach shot or put. GPS with green information would be the only chance to score well, if you don't know the course. But carts are basic. Overall worth the trip and the money!
The course was good. cart path only...
the pace was extremely slow.. seem to be one four some that should have been told to speed up.... 5 1/2 hours was slow.
Good value for the buck! Many courses have become overpriced but no obvious upgrades to warrant the noticeable increase in price.
Challenging but fair
Found the course challenging but fair, was in good condition, however there was only 1 employee working to get everyone off, which caused chaos as we were left standing there wondering when we’re going to get off, turns out about 1/2 hr late.
Slow Play
Strongly suggest not to book on a Wednesday. Ladies league!! Caused huge backlog. Course is in fair condition
Watch out for the water
This is a nice course to play outside the normal Myrtle Beach rotation. It's a nearly flat course, with mature trees and several water hazards that are not evident from the tee boxes. So, if you have not played before or it has been a while, make sure you have a GPS/Overhead view of the holes. I found water six times - not always on a bad shot, just did not know there was a water hazard on the line I hit. Nothing fancy at the clubhouse, but a good atmosphere. Basic carts. Wet a towel before you leave as the golf ball washers are few and far between. Course conditions were pretty typical for this time of year - dormant grass in the rough, but the fairways and tee boxes and greens were all in good shape. Breaks on the green were difficult to read with some subtle breaks and breaks that just weren't there. Cart paths were a bit rough - not surprising for an older course. Front nine is in the woods; back nine has some housing. Driving range and putting green were very close to the clubhouse. Despite a steady flow of players, the pace was good, with no abnormal waits or backups. A good value course where you will use all the clubs in your bag.
Great Course to play
Theres a couple of golf courses around in the area but Diamondback is better such as layout, condition, pace of play, atmosphere and price. Of cos staff friendlyness I'm sure this golf course is not for beginners. Would play again when we have a chance.
