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.

Nice place, but they must fix the pace of play

Played 18 holes at The Heritage in March 2017. Lovely upon arrival, everything looked good. Large crowd at the bag drop should have made me nervous, but I remained oblivious. The round took over 5 1/2 hours. We waited every single shot. Barely finished in twilight, although we teed off at 1pm. I politely complained to the staff when we finished, and was told it would be passed on, but I'd have better luck by posting this review. 65000 rounds per year are pushed through (according to staff), so often 3 groups on a single hole. It's a nice course, wonderful design. A little beat up on the greens from traffic. I had planned to buy a hat, or something, but the place was shut down when we finished, although I'd already decided not to due to aforementioned SLOW PLAY. Never saw a marshall. The point of this is that the slow play is caused by the course, not the players. Avoid this one if you like to play with any kind of rhythm.

Disappointing for the Money

We were expecting a much better conditioned course than we experienced for the green fees paid. The tees were in very poor condition and some of the greens, while generally in good shape, were virtually unputtable with the pin placements and severe rolls.
The Heritage is, in my opinion, a decent course but certainly not a premium track. I would not return unfortunately.

Great track

Great golf course. Friendly staff. What an incredible layout amongst the pines and many huge live oak trees, beautiful homes and landscaping, intercoastal marshes and wildlife including many alligators and even a bald eagle! Tee boxes and fairways were in great shape. Greens were fast and tricky with multiple tiers and undulations, but fair. Highly recommend if in the area.

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.
