Amazing the improvements that have been made. Worth the trip out to Loris SC

I was concerned reading recent reviews but we found the course in nice condition. Greens rolled true and were at a pace to make a bunch of putts. Unfortunately, no fault of the course, it was a super windy day and this course is tight and full of water and bunkers that are challenging on a calm day!! I know every course jumps prices this time of year but I would have really enjoyed it for a more reasonable price. If you spray the ball you may find this course frustrating. I was even at the turn but struggled with the cross winds coming in.

Conditions are mediocre at best right now. Greens were sanded. Definitely need to play winter conditions to find some grass to hit off. Nice course to start if you are coming out of the cold and snow

I was very impressed with the conditions of the course. Every aspect was excellent. Only issue was pace of play. It wasn’t slow play, as all the players moved along nicely and hit the ball well and were playing the appropriate tees. It was just too many people on the course. Tee times need to spread out more to allow more room between groups. I realize everyone needs to make their money in winter but it would deter me from playing again and that’s a shame since the course was beautifully prepared and presented!!

We took this course off the rota but with the new greens and better check conditions, it was very enjoyable again. Recommended to some friends who are coming down as a nice course to kick off their trip.

It used to be that playing crown park was usually a quiet day. Not any more! Looks like , along with housing development, the courses along rt 9 outside of north myrtle beach have been found. Even with a good crowd play moved along pretty well. I have always enjoyed the course layout with a variety of holes. I look forward to playing there when we visit in fall and spring.

Have played this course on my visits to north myrtle beach many times over the years. It was closed for a few years. The staff has put tremendous effort into improving the conditions. The fairways are greatly improved as are the greens. There is still much to do to make this a 4 star course but it is nice to see the improvement. The layout is nice and dome views are spectacular. It is a great course to start a trip from the north after having not played in a while. Give it a try, if you can get a good price.

This course has been up and down last few years. Fairways a bit thin but you can find a lay playing winter rules. Greens have improved since they were redone a few years ago. Occasionally silly pin placements make some putts impossible. Practice facilities are good and staff is always helpful. It’s off the usual golf destination but it is worth a ride especially on a nice calm day. Some views are fantastic .

Over the last few years the staff has made this a must play on any trip to myrtle Beach area. Conditions have become heat on fairways, greens and traps. Sometimes pace of play can be slow but this time was fine. Used to be chaotic unloading but new owners and starters have gotten that mess under control. Really need to add this course to your play list

This course has gone from unplayable a few years ago to really nice. The amount of work staff has put in clearing brush, improving fairways, traps, and greens is remarkable and they should be commended. The layout is nice with a variety of holes and terrain. Still not ready to play the ball down all the time but it’s getting close. Can be a bit of a ride but it is now worth the effort to get out there.

Played two times, once in December and once in February and both times course was in excellent shape. People working are helpful, starter took his job seriously and set up an excellent pace of play. Course is tricky and you need to be aware of where water can come into play and club selection off tees is critical.

Amazing how many times water was in play. Course was in great shape even after heavy rains the night before. Personal we’re all helpful. Friend and I traveled an hour and a half from opposite directions to meet there. Well worth the effort. Views of lakes were added bonus. Looking forward to playing again when returning in February

For last few years course has been a must do on trips in fall and spring. Only down side today was cart path only due to overseed. Not easy to walk since cart paths are often quite far from ball due to wide fairways. But a necessary evil this time of year just be sure to ask. Greens fairways and tees all good shape

Course was terribly last spring when I last reviewed it. Greens were terrible and virtually unputtable. This November the greens were excellent. Since the course has a nice layout, I am so glad it’s back in good shape. Whatever you did to the course to improve the conditions, please keep it up

I have review this course a few times over the years. We generally play in April and November. The course fell on hard times a few years ago but has steadily been improving and yesterday was very enjoyable. The entire course was great . Tees fairways and greens were in great shape. Now compared to a premium course maybe not but gor the money this is a great tract to play.

Unable to finish due to ridiculous slow play. 1 member left after 9 ,2 left after 11 and I left after 12 where there were 4 groups on the hole. Marshall was aware because after a few holes and we were already behind over 30 minutes, he said he spoke to the large group of guys that were playing exceptionally slow already. He never showed up again. If I didn’t leave likely would have been in 6 hour plus easily. A course this great should have insisted a group that big play at a pace that wouldn’t ruin the round of every other paying group behind them. They should have been made to skip holes or leave the course to allow others like myself who looked so forward to playing such a great course. All we got were apologies from staff when we drove in and complained. A complimentary round should have been offered because the staff was at fault for permitting this tragedy to happen

After having been shut down for a few years, this course is coming back to nice shape. Real variety of holes and some spectacular views. No real practice facilities right now but the greens were better then some more expensive courses in the area. Can’t really play summer rules on the fairways but you can tell the staff is trying to put this course on the right track

I checked a week prior to playing and the greens were fine. We played a week later and they were plugged and sanded making putting impossible, which made the day disappointing. The layout is nice, fairways were ok, but as I said greens a problem. We need to always check as this plugging has happened before

Course was in very good condition. Fairways a bit thin but will fill in soon with warmer weather. Greens were fantastic not much movement and makeable speed.. great character in the holes. Very different and challenging.. course offers a different experience from most area courses.

We used to enjoy this course but last time we played 4 hrs ago it was not in good condition and we didn’t return. I read a few favorable reviews recently so we thought we give it a try. Not sure why or what part of the organization it was but the aesthetics of the course has improved greatly. The number of trees taken down and the brush that was cleared has made “junky” looking holes into gorgeous holes! The variety of holes after the changes makes for a fun experience.
The truth be told the fairways and greens need a bit help and playing the ball down is not always “fair” but I think the grass will improve with warmer weather.
It is a tight and tough layout and you better not be a sprayer of the ball or you are going to lose a ton of balls so pick the best tees for your ability levels
