Boring......
Not particularly challenging course. Boring, actually.
We never experienced a wait on any hole, we set our own pace of play which is typically waaay under 4 hours. We did maintain a visual on the group ahead so they never got away from us. However, the group behind us were running up our butts at every opportunity, although they never hit into us. When we met up with them at a par 3, they said the group behind them were pushing them.
Apparently, the staff at the start pushes as many groups out as they can, as you've read in other reviews.
We still finished our round in 3.75 hours, so why the push????
As for the startng que...... we arrived about 50 minutes before our tee time and were not given one of the many empty carts. We were told they will call us 15 minutes before our tee time. Everyone just sits around with their bags. It was about a 500 yd walk to the range, where i paid $5 for 30 balls. There are two hitting locations but only one was open and it was so packed, people on top of other people, im suprised nobody got hit by a club. The range was not a flat deal with pins placed but a hilly, rolly field. Couldn't tell my distances at all.
Then another 500 yd walk with full bag, back to wait fir our cart/tee time. Our names were called and we were loaded up and immediately told to go. Where???
Follow the signs, they said.
Got to 1st tee box and there were 3 groups ahead of us.........
One more thing. The staff's attitude gave me the impression we were being 'allowed' to play their course.
Won't be back.
Meh
Had 12:20 tee time. There was a decent amount of rain overnight but the morning tee times went off without delay. First issue - range was closed. Not sure how course can be playable but range is closed. So that started everything on wrong foot. Pro shop employees were less than helpful and could not have been more disinterested in something other than the music in their earbuds or talking w each other. Cart barn was chaos with all the afternoon groups w no where to go and morning wave coming in. They too were less than helpful. Course was playable but definitely coming out of winter. Greens were in so so shape. Tee boxes were ok as well. Fairways ok. Made turn in 2 hours and had to wait for 4(!) groups stacked up ahead of us on 10. Took too many reservations and crammed them all in. 3 hour 2nd 9 w a wait on every box. If customer service were a bit better to set expectations it would have been more tolerable. Missing rakes on a few bunkers is just poor. There are so many more courses that provide for a better experience overall. Won’t go there again w so many other choices.
Cranky old men
I stopped playing here after witnessing Legends staff berate paying customers and make racist comments about a group of Asian players. I thought things had changed a year later but the same cranky old retirees still work here. The busy body range worker scolded my dad who’s 81 for sharing his range bucket with me. He claimed the new owners would suspend my dad’s range membership if they caught him doing that but added he “wouldn’t say anything.” This guy then offered unsolicited advice about my Stealth driver. I wasn’t aware a 15 handicap range goat was qualified to offer club advice to a scratch golfer. As for the course, they apply a $50 markup vs. the other two Legends courses, ostensibly because it’s a Tom Doak design. Ten years ago this course was $35 after 4 pm in the summer. Now it’s almost $100 in low season because Doak got famous. Hilarious! Go to Pinehurst, NC instead. Better courses, better value and superior service.
Ledgends- Heathrow
Outside staff was great, not so much in theproshop
Overpriced items in shop. Very poor restaurant. Maybe because we were a 4some of women from FL.
Legends Heathland
I Don't know how this course charges what it does. It is a tourist trap. They schedule all ciourses at same time. We were delayed 45 minutes teeing off and then suffered a slow, slow pace.
The Heath lands course was OK for 9 holes. We were rained out after 9 holes; I considered the rain out a good deal since they are over priced...
Poor starting organization
You arrive , drop off clubs and wait in crowded area. Have to remind them to load your clubs 10 minutes before tee time. They will not do it any earlier and you have to chase them down to do it at 10 minutes. No mention of practice green, no real course info given. They sent us to first tee and they starter there just said have a nice round and rode off. Round (mid week at noon) took 5:50. No ranger in sight the whole day. Had drink and lunch tickets - was told can use them after round. Snack bar and inside bar closed at 5:00 and they just said guess you are out of luck.
LEGENDS did not live up to its name...
50+ years veteran golfer; first trip to Myrtle Beach. Friends always raved about Legends as a must play. Booked a 1:56 pm, Saturday round using Golf Now app for a "Hot Deal!" Arrival found utter chaos with 40-50 golfers waiting to get a cart and get started. Got cart at 1:55 and headed to the first tee of the Heathland course. Course and facilities seemed very beat up to me. Everything was brown (I know it's supposed to be a links style course) but clubhouse looked like no one had done any upkeep on it for decades. Pro shop and grille area did look nice though. For the most part,, the staff was very friendly; although the folks trying to get people out on the course at the bag drop were overwhelmed due to only two people trying to handle all of the traffic. Could have used at least 2 more assistants. The biggest issue...SLOW PLAY DUE TO OVER BOOKING! We started at 2:01PM and got through 16 holes with the last two being past dusk. We could not finish the round. We were told by many people that this is typical of the Legends facility right now as they greatly over book tee times and rounds take 5-6 hours. When I get back to Myrtle some day, I will definitely not have the legends courses on the itinerary unless I know of changes to their business tactics. There are so many other great tracks to chose from now for the same or less $$$. I was saddened that the Legends didn't live up to its reputation and name.
Pace of play
The course is overbooked. It took us 3 hours to play nine holes. We had a 1:24 tee time and were unable to play 18 holes. We had to quit after nine. The course itself is very nice. It’s just not a good value to pay 70 dollars and only be able To complete 9 holes due to pace of play.
Nice time
Chose Legends because most other courses were closed due to the upcoming freeze. Cart attendants were helpful, did not have to wait for them to unload car or load up golf cart. Shop Staff was friendly and made us feel at home. Young lady in the bar was OUTSTANDING! Great service, great personality. And the lunch was very good!
Well but 15 handicapper you say at the range has won more tournaments than you've played golf and he saw your swing and if you're a scratch golfer it must be scratching your head anytime anyplace for any amount of money you want to play for I'll back him
