Great Mixture of Classic Design & Target Holes
The course was fun to play with some beautiful, pine-lined holes mixed up with some target-water holes. Condition was a bit disappointing because they had just done the winter seeding and water was standing on a lot of holes. We even took casual water relief on many greens and collars. A few tee boxes are beat up. Fairways and greens were very nice. I would say this course is a little rough compared to the more manicured courses.
Staff was super-friendly.
I will go back but it won't be at the top of my play list.
Nice day
Nice enough course. Greens had a few brown spots, were a little grainy, and rolled oddly at times, but part of that is my not being used to bermuda. My biggest complaint is that a lot of the approaches, especially on the back 9, were really drenched and played so soft and soggy that it was inconsistent with the rest of the other course conditions. Last 2 holes are a very nice finish to the round.
Myrtlewood Golf Course
Beautiful and challenging course. Busy…it felt like it was maybe overbooked but we got our round in. Would definitely play it again next year.
The ranger needs to understand pace of play. He asked our group what our problem was because we weee a hole behind.. No problem because the 3 in front of us were playing red tees. The group behind us were never pushing us. We were on pace to complete our round under their 4.5 hour schedule and we did, 4 hrs 20 minutes. His tone was quite rude and didn’t appreciate the fact that we told him our pace was not the issue.
Palmetto course
You don’t come near club house until your done 18. Be nice to have snack shack open?
Extremely slow play
Had 11:52 tee time, actually teed off 12:15. Group in front obviously had 2 beginners who kept dropping another ball after a bad shot. After 9 holes they had two holes open in front. Ranger either didn't pick up on it or didn't care. After 15 holes picked up and called it a day!
Golf Course for a good time
The Palmetto at Myrtlewood Golf Club was a good experience for the price. Although the course was not in peak condition, the greens rolled somewhat slow but true to roll and line.
The course was an overall great experience but the staff did not want to stay late as our tee time was an afternoon tee time.
The course took the driver out of the hands a large portion of the course, this did not seem necessary or wanted at any point. It makes you play some unique shots but overall took your long clubs out of your hands on the tee a large number of times, due to water hazards.
Pro shop had great swag to buy and drinks were reasonably priced.
The 18th hole was a great experience with a canal to the ocean on the left of the fairway. We experienced large to small boats (yachts) passing the canal and jamming to music. This really added to the atmosphere of the course
Value Golf on the Grand Strand
The Palmetto Course at Myrtlewood is a older style Myrtle Beach Course along the Intercoastal Waterway. The layout features multiple water hazards, older pines and solid bunkering. At only $54 for weekend play, the Palmetto Course is an outstanding value on the Grand Strand.
The conditioning of the course is average, to slightly above average. The fairways were very wet, despite there not being significant rain before we played. The greens are on the slower side for Myrtle Beach, but they seem to roll true.
The out and back layout is unique, with 9 tee being about as far from the clubhouse as any point on the property. I liked the back 9 better than the front 9, with the 17th and the 18th being really great holes.
I definitely recommend the Palmetto Course at Myrtlewood for a fun, relaxing round at a strong value.
My favorite hole in the property is hole 18. With the intercoastal waterway down the left, it's a classic finisher.

Excellent course with terrible pace of play!
We played this course this past weekend. It was a very nice course with a good range. Clubhouse is right on the ICW, it's great to sit out there and watch the boats go by while having lunch. The course itself was in great shape, the greens rolled nice, fairways and tee boxes were plush. Layout was excellent The pace of play however, was flat out terrible. We were backed up every single hole from #2 on and it took 5:30 to play 18. In the hundreds of rounds i've played in my lifetime this was by far the slowest. Even the ranger admitted that they booked to many tee times, every 8 minutes from 7:30-3. Clean up the pace of play and this is an excellent course. Quit being greedy!
Great Myrtle Beach course
Played here with a friend and my junior golfer daughter. Love that the courses let juniors play for free. Beautiful and challenging course. Greens played nice. Played the Pinehills course 3 years ago. Loved playing the Palmetto course this time. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Great family course. Highly recommend.
Excellent renovation
You know how stars of home improvement shows love to renovate houses with "good bones"? That was the case of the Palmetto Course. The original course had a functional layout with one memorable hole (the 18th, along the Intracoastal Waterway), but it was always middling at best in the competitive Myrtle Beach market.
Architect Dan Schlegel's renovation last year may not have turned the course into a sensation, but it is now a couple significant notches higher on the Myrtle Beach golf pecking order. He made the bunkering more relevant and interesting and, more crucially, expanded both the greens and the fairways in order to make the course more playable. This means it is more enjoyable for every caliber of player, all of whom will also appreciate that the course is in tip-top condition, too. It was a successful project for the Founders Group International ownership.
Excellent course often overlooked in Myrtle Beach area.
Course was in great shape. No two holes are the same, great layout.
Provides a challenge for all levels.
Quality
First the course was in GREAT SHAPE with super nice fairways and greens and good tee boxes. The staff was nice and the layout was good. This course was in the best shape of the five we played even beating out TPC, and Grande Dunes Resort Course. I havent played Pine Hills yet but WILL on next trip down. GREAT JOB MYRTLEWOOD as you show how a course should be maintained.
Pleasantly surprised.
Course was in excellent condition. A few holes offer a very nice view of the Intracoastal Waterway. Good sand in the bunkers. Greens have many subtle breaks. The course is not overly difficult, although offering a decent challenge. It has a fair number of water holes, but it doesn't beat you up -' very enjoyable.
