Awesome, except for a few greens
Overall, this is a good value, especially in April when most courses raise their prices for the season. The only problem is with some of the greens. About a third of the greens have large bald areas and some weed infiltration. Otherwise, the course is in really good shape.
I Will Be Back
Had a great day with my first time playing this course. Staff was gracious and friendly. Course was in good shape, the greens need a little bit more work, as some had too much sand in spots, and bare areas. If I had one complaint, it was the very very slow play, with no Marshal in sight, almost 5 and a half hours to get done, and 25 minutes passed original tee time.
Departure Round
Played Whispering Pines on the way out of Myrtle Beach at the end of a four-day golf trip. Course was in good shape and enjoyed the round. There was a threesome in front of us that really struggled to keep pace with the group ahead of them, so the front nine was slow. We played through at the turn and had five open holes before encountering anyone.
For the price, this is a great value.
Good conditions
Nice course.. Slow pace of play. Would play again.
Golfing Whispering Pines
Really enjoyed golfing this course! Nice long fairways and some challenging par 3s! It was very busy and pace of play was fine till last 4 holes, which took our overall time well over 4 hours, going close to 5 hours. Regardless, would play again! Starter was very welcoming and entertaining!
Not Female Friendly
Inside counter individuals very friendly. But starter was not interested in us 4 females. We brought our clubs to starter and placed them in rack and we waited. He was chatting with a 'male foursome' and did not acknowledge us at all. A car of males drove up. He proceeded to help them get clubs out. After finishing with them, he finally walked over to us and took our receipts and loaded our clubs in our carts. We were not happy with the situation.
Nice Track
Course was a bit dry but very good condition for this tine of year. Greens were good shape, course is a great parkland style. Would play again
Whispering Pines not so friendly southern course.
Booked a round through golf now. Pro shop staff treats non South Carolinians with a negative attitude. Bag fro/starter was friendly. Course was in nice shape
slow play; clubhouse closed at rounds end
1:40 tee off, but delayed start.....finished around 7:00 pm with many groups still on the course, but clubhouse facilities including restrooms were closed at conclusion of round. Which was weird.
Good experience overall
Staff was very friendly. Slow pace of play throughout the round. Small greens with lots of water. Challenging course.
