Rating 73.2

This beautiful facility is located on 270 pristine acres at the North end of the Grand Strand. Blessed with a unique topography and large mature trees, the course meanders down to the inter-coastal waterway with scenic vistas to distract you at every turn.

This 6900 yard Clyde Johnston design is owned and managed by the same group that developed the fabled Heather Glen links and the service you have grown to expect from this organization is evident the moment you drive up to the clubhouse. Give this course a try the next time you vist the Myrtle Beach area. You won't be disappointed!

Not ready for prime time!

It was mobbed, sending players off the back and front. Not sure if that is “par” for the course. Slow play. The greens not in the greatest shape. Was disappointed with course conditions but maybe early in the season?

Surely you cannot be serious, this place is terrible. Glen Dornoch is a DUD!

Played last year and course was good, played yesterday and although the course has a great layout, the greens are the absolute worst i have ever played on in Myrtle Beach. Greens look diseased and if you like to play PLINKO then you will love it here. They roll similair to greens that are aerated, disgusting they don't alter pricing to reflect conditions. They have the addacity to charge 92 dollars for regular green fees if you do not have a discount card, thank god our group has the golftrail card. Save your money and go elsewhere cuz this course if a real disappointment

Nice track

Nice layout especially last 3-4 holes which were very challenging. Conditions are good for time of year. Bag and pro shop staff great....only issue was slow pace of play because of one group that would not let any play through.....we were one of 3 groups that drove around them to skip a hole and continue.....staff at the turn didn't seem interested in addressing the issue at all

Target golf

Long drivers leave your big dog at home. Maybe 5 or 6 holes you’ll need it at most. Great layout, if you can hit it where you want it. If not, bring your calculator. Course was in great shape for winter months. Cart path only as they fertilize so pace of play was god awful. Otherwise, I can’t wait to go back.

Glen Dornach - great course - poor customer experience

Staff at course was not helpful at all and ornery at best. Only saying “don’t do this, don’t do that” and not providing ANY relevant or helpful information.

Golf course was in good shape, greens were in very good shape and ran really true and fast. I would recommend the golf course - be prepared for rude interaction prior to playing the course.

If you want to spend 140 bucks, spent 10 more and go to Thistle up the road.

We arrived and the staff was nice enough. The guy inside was ok the ones at bag drop were cool. They tell us they are over seeding and it is cart path only as we go to head out on 10 since 1-9 was being done. This was 3 hour first nine. The Ranger came by a couple of times and the last time we saw him he said we could ride 1-9 our back nine. Please Thisle the day before and River Hills the day before that. Both were in great shape. This corse was not worth anywhere near $140.00. I got a hot deal thank goodness and was $89. With that in mind Thisle was $91 the day before on a hot deal. It was not worth the money.

Love the course

The course was in great shape and the staff was friendly and helpful. My husband especially likes the views of the waterways and boats. Makes him 'easy pickings' on some holes!

Course location

We weren't really sure what to expect since my partner and I had never played the course. I really like the layout and the course was ain absolutely great shape. The fairways were manicured and the greens rolled true. It had some stunning views of the intercoastal and the staff was extremely friendly. I would definitely make it one to add to our list on return.
