The Heritage Club was built on a plot of fertile land along the beautiful Waccamaw River Trail. Over 600 acres of giant magnolias, 300-year-old oaks, fresh water lakes and marshes have been transformed into a golfing community that rivals the finest in the world. The Heritage Club reflects a unique landscape carved by the whims of the river. A magnificent avenue of oaks leads to the welcoming clubhouse overlooking the Waccamaw River.
Ranked among the “50 Best Public Courses in America” by Golf Digest, the Par 71 Heritage Club, a Dan Maples design, follows the natural contours of the land, stretching out beside long abandoned rice fields. The Heritage Club course features spacious, rolling fairways and large, undulating greens, surrounded by lush stands of crepe myrtle, camellias and azaleas. Heavily landscaped areas of wildflowers and flowering shrubs will maintain the beauty of this beautiful setting for generations to come.

Favorite Course

This was our favorite course out of three that we played while in Myrtle Beach. Considering we played TPC & Legends-Parkland that’s saying something.

Nice course, terrible pace of play

Enjoyed the course and the starters were friendly and helpful trying to deal with major backup of tee times (pro shop staff member was rude and argumentative). Ended up finally teeing off on 10th and spent 2 hours 45 minutes playing 9 holes with 3 groups waiting on each tee box. Skipped the first hole on the front 9 to get around a foursome taking forever to play each hole and managed to finish the round in the dark. The course was enjoyable but the pace of play ruined what was a beautiful sunny day.

The Heritage Club

We played the course on Tuesday Oct 3rd.The greens on the front 9 are all covered in sand. It would have been nice if there was a heads up on the website or they told you when you checked in. The greens on the back 9 were in really good shape. The fairways on both the front and back were in excellent condition. The back 9 was fabulous and had great photo opportunities with the beautiful views. Watch out for the huge alligator which was another photo opportunity.

Hidden Gem

Great course. Some of the greens needed some TLC. The staff was outstanding from golf cart attendants, pro shop check in, to the staff at the restaurant. Great value with Breakfast, Lunch and drink included. We will come back.

Bummer!

We visit the area frequently and Heritage is one of my favorite courses. Not this time. The course overall was just okay. The greens on the back 9 were patchy and furry. Fairways were just ok. We even joked that the beautiful wildlife we’re accustomed to moved out.

Slooooowwww play

The course is good but we had a six hour round. Teed off after our reserved tee time. The ranger had the attitude of “that’s just how it is”

Atrocious Pace of Play

7 hours and 5 minutes to play 17 holes and then we gave up. Never seen anything like it. They claim it's because they had a group of 40 that had the course backed up. But, given the past reviews, I'm not buying it. Never again. An embarrassing waste of money.

Sad to Post- one of my Myrtle Beach Favourites in terrible condition

Heritage has been one of my favourites for years, and one I look forward to playing on each Buddies trip.

This year was different. 12 of us played it yesterday , booked as part of our Annual Buddies Trip months ago.

The layout is always a blast, but the greens this year were the worst I’ve ever played in April in Myrtle. Splotchy grass sections mixed in with large bare patches on many greens. Speeds inconsistent, & slow. No way to hold the line of a putt, as they’d also been recently aerated. April is prime season in Myrtle, so we had paid top $$$ to book our rounds. Hard to enjoy a round with greens so bad.

Anything over $50 is to much with the current conditions.

My suggestion is take a pass on Heritage until they get their greens fixed.

Sad to post this, as it’s among my Top 5 Personal list in the Myrtle Area.
