Bad Day

The greens are in bad shape. Sand and weed killer applied only one or two greens you can put on. The fairways are wet and full of weeds.

Course shouldn't be open.

We played the day after a downpour, we should have known better. The wet conditions were not their fault but it was wet to the point that they should have closed it for the day.

The greens were horrible. Huge areas of nothing but dirt. We quit after 9 holes because there was nothing fun about it.

Get what you pay for…

Listen, this is not a great course right now with the shape of the greens but it all depends on what you want or need. I paid $24 each for 18 holes with a cart. The cart ran out of battery after 14 holes. The greens as other wrote are very poor (for most of them, some were good) but I got out got some exercise and hacked it up because I’m not a good golfer. If I wanted a course in fantastic shape with a good cart I would have paid $80-100. So I won’t bash the place but like the title says you get what you pay for.

Would not recommend this course

It rained the previous night and I was one of just a few golfers on this course today. I can understand the course being sopping wet, but overall this course is in sad shape. The fairways are sparse with grass and overwhelmed by weeds and clover. The greens have been recently sanded so putting was out of the question. This is without a doubt the worst course I've seen in the Myrtle Beach area to date. The cart paths were so bad from the tree roots growing under them that I'll probably need to see a chiropractor later today. Don't do it.

Stay Away

To say this course is in rough shape is an injustice to the word rough! I don’t know what their story is but tee to green this was the worst conditions I’ve ever seen. Half the course was cart path only and there hasn’t been rain here in days. The staff was friendly. In fact when we walked in he said the rate had been dropped to $49. I should have been suspicious. Second clue - no cars in the parking lot. This contributed to the great pace of play. We caught up to another two some on 17. The single behind us caught us on 18. We thought the layout had real potential but unless they put some money in, this place is closing soon.

Had a great time, but course was pretty rough. Grass was high and greens were ugly, but still I really enjoyed it.

Not a golf course

Terrible over priced. Appears to be waiting for condominium to buy the land.
Fairways are ivy, greens un-puttable.
Should have paid us to play

Terrible course

The is perhaps the worst course I’ve played except for one in California. Greens, fairways and tee boxes need major work. Not a good golf course. Someone needs to take control that knows how to operate a golf course. Done wate your money

They have let this course run down greens where ruined most of them anyway. Fairways not mowed good looked like first cut of ruff on most courses. The only good thing was the pace of play. No one was playing.

Friendly staff, nice layout. Lost 3 balls in fairway due to lack of mowing. One cart died during round. About half the greens were playable, the others were sand dirt and bumpy. Good course for a beginner.
