I think it is now the best in Myrtle Beach

I played several courses on this trip all of them were very nice. Tidewater was my personal favorite and the standout. The new greens update and other changes they mentioned have paid off in an outstanding golf course.

Greens, fairways, bunkers all in excellent condition. The staff were professional and courteous.

They have 5 or 6 tees to choose from and I took the advice this time to play up a set of tees from my home course (If I wanted it to play more closely to what I am used to) The ranger was right I should have listened the first two times. I love a challenged but this time I really wanted to have some fun since this was a family golf outing not one with the boys.

Have fun playing Tidewater we will be back in the fall to play again.

Best in the immediate area without question

Outstanding in every regard. Great conditions, true greens, friendly staff, big landing areas off of the tee, excellent food & beverage, solid practice tee, great views with 4 holes on the intracoastal waterway, updated carts with GPS, etc.

There is no downside in this golf complex at all. Plays long from the blues/blacks and fairly long from the white tees as well. Lots of tee options for players of varying skills and length.

You'll hit every club in your bag. Course conditions were outstanding; zero complaints.

Go play tidewater, this track will test you without question and however much of it you think you want to bite off. Enjoy your round there.

One of the Best at Mrytle Beach

Played Tidewater in a golf outing to Myrtle Beach. If you haven't played this golf course you need to. It is a must play if you are in the area. Always in excellent condition. A little pricey in season but may be able to find a deal in off season. Scenery is great.

rude staff

Not a fan for the staff. We got rushed even though our pace of play wasn't holding anyone up. Had a 10:00 tee time and split into two groups a twosome and a foursome. The twosome had no one in front of them and after the first hole never saw them till we got to the turn. we ,the foursome never held anyone up and only saw the golfers behind us as we walked of #9 green. When we meet back at the turn the staff was all tore up and told us we had to split up into to two threesomes. Now any golfer knows two golfers can play a lot faster than four. Will not book this course in the future.

The best golf course in north Myrtle Beach

Amazing round of golf. The golf course was impressive, even with a little bit of sand on the greens. The holes near the water are beautiful and the staff is super friendly. You have to go play there. For the information, every player gets free golf balls (pro-v1 x) and the lunch. Didn't knew that when I booked.

Top 5 on the Strand

For years Tidewater has been a Top 5 course on the entire length. Even with the addition of TPC Myrtle Beach and the upgrades at Barefoot this course has withstood and continued to be one of the best. I would recommend Tidewater to anyone heading to the Myrtle Beach area as a must play when building your trip itinerary
