Got a hot deal for $42 and omg what an amazing track. Usually see this course over $100 and was a little worried that for $42 I’d find aerated greens or something but the course was absolutely prime. My favorite in the Pinehurst area and that includes #2. Fun challenge. Wonderful mixture of holes and great condition.

Played early Easter Sunday. Just a twosome and we expected to be paired up and we're prepared for a slow round being peak season and all. Guys at the bag drop were surly old men. Seems to be all there are at golf courses in Myrtle area these days. They don't hire kids to do these jobs anymore which is a shame. Pro shop attendant was very nice. We were told a group had cancelled and we were free to go early as a twosome. Played through one foursome and got around in about 2 and a half hours. Fairways and tees were in great shape. Overseeded rye is always nice. Dormant Bermuda roughs were ok. Greens were so so. They had just been top dressed with green sand so they looked nice but you could tell they were worn out underneath. I suspect they'll start growing in better with the warmer temps. Only complaint other than surly bagpas is the lack of flagging on hazards. Course is very flat so hazards are hard to recognize. Lost a ball on a hole where the hazard juts out into the fairway and they don't put the hole layout signs back at the championship tees which weren't even placed by the way. Just empty tee boxes back there.

This is my first round of the year and the first course I've played this winter that I thought was worth the money. Great greens and proper upkeep. Even got 90* rule.
