Oyster Bay Golf Links

Great course in Extreme need of repair ,cart paths have degraded even more,to the point of dangerous(sooner or later,someone will be injured.Oh and throwing sand on asphalt does not fix the problem..
Breakfast and lunch menu is a joke and also needs to addressed.
From what it once was , to now is a real Shame !

Nice layout. Good fairways and greens. Pace of play good.
Worst golf cart paths I've ever seen.
Would certainly play here again.

Horrible course. It cost $100 for 18 holes and a cart. The tee boxes were an absolute disaster. The pace of play was almost 6hrs for 18 holes. The staff let off foursomes on the back nine and placed them in the middle of peoples rounds. No Ranger keeping pace of play moving. Fairways and greens were ok. Could be a beautiful course if the right people owned it and ran it properly. Don’t waste your time and hard earned money playing here. Plenty of other courses where it’s cheaper and magnitudes better!

Pace of play got messed up and super slow because a twosome skipped ahead and got stuck between two foursomes. Did not ask permission. When we reported it. Staff said it wasn’t a problem really and that they only should have asked and it would have been fine but on multiple holes, there was four groups on one hole because of the skip. Staff either was incompetent or knew the folks causing the issue and gave them preferential statements. Or starters didn’t want to deal with confrontation even though that’s part of the job.

Beautiful course set in a costal area with marshlands and plenty of wildlife to observe. The maintenance was a little lacking mainly the cart paths were in need of repair.

Very busy weekend to be letting players play in a group of 5. They would not let us play through as a 2 players. The monitor that asked as how we were doing told them they were holding everyone up that they should split them up. They said they got permission before play.
Ladies bathroom were dirty with no lights.
Cart paths were awful.
The money we pay this should be a lot better coarse.
Will not return.

Fun layout. Saw five gators trolling the waters.
Lost more than my fair share of balls.

Another classic southern coastal course that has past its heyday. The greens are still pretty good and roll well but the rest of the course is getting pretty dated. Cart paths are brutal and many of the holes are spotty and could use a good upgrade. There are some great holes in the layout but the conditions don't do them justice. Not sure we will play it again for the cost.

Took a little over five hours to play. Most holes had 3 groups on them. Greens are still recovering from where the punched them. Slow and bumpy. Bunker haven’t been raked in a couple days. There were hard and had a lot of wash outs. Good layout with a lot of nice views.

Upon pulling up to the bag drop, we were greeted with an unfriendly attendant, turns out somebody didn't show up to work with him, so naturally that meant take it out on the customer. I asked if I could get a cup of coffee and was told by the lady in the restaurant area that it was $2, on the other side and get it myself, then walked away in the other direction. We got on the course and never were told we were starting on 10, so naturally the distances were off and it is always good to start out being behind off the first hole. The course needs some love, it is a decent layout, but the condition was mediocre except for the greens that were very nice. The guy )a member) we were paired with felt obliged to pick up my ball, toss it down improving my lie a number of times, sounds great until you can't record the score. Then two times the ranger pulled up while I was about to hit, stopped 10 feet away and then just stared at me. I asked him if I could help him and he said, "no, I am good, I am here to help you", I can say pulling up as somebody addresses a shot is NOT helpful.

Far cry from what it once was back when I played it in 2000. Starter told us all the rules about fixing ball marks and where to drive carts. He for got to tell us the course was just aerated and the tee boxes and greens had tons of bare spots. Not good, too bad.

Wow, can’t believe this course cost as much as it did. Greens and tee boxes were terrible. Not sure what they are doing with the money they bring in but they definitely aren’t putting it into the course. I was extremely disappointed and embarrassed that we paid as much as we did.

Course in good shape, greens very good. Only negative, we went out as first group on first hole, course was using double tees that morning. We made the turn and waited on two groups still going out on first wave of tee times. Back nine played much slower due to this. Overall very good, would recommend and will play again.

Oyster Bay and Heritage have been among my Myrtle Beach favorite golf courses for over 30 years, but I have to make excuses to my friends, reporting that the current state of Oyster Bay’s infrastructure is a sad remnant of the course’s glorious past. The course that was once one of America’s best new courses is not maintained consistent with it’s splendid design. The cart paths are in disrepair. Many tees have large bare spots as do some of the fairways and green aprons. Fortunately the greens are decent enough for me to return next year, but I would rather pay $30-$50 more to play Oyster Bay as it once was than the underinvested course today.

the staff was on point from the time I arrived to making the turn and to putting my clubs back into the car. the course was nice but there were some areas around the tree lines that was hard pan and the course had received some heavier rains over the weekend that one hole had standing water in front of the tee box. the course had a nice layout and was fun to play.
