Pace of Play Nightmare

We were told by the starter our tee time was 25-30 minutes behind. We were at 1:48 scheduled, plenty of time normally for a full 18.

They PACKED the course, pace of play was horrendous and multiple groups on each hole. Even with groups quitting in front of us, we were not getting close to finishing. It was frustrating and I doubt uncommon.

Course was OK, unique for FL as there is a fair amount of elevation change. It was more of an Up this hole and Downward on that hole. maybe skewed by the pace of play, but I was not very impressed. The exception being a couple island greens that were fun...although I didn't have daylight to play all four.

Unlikely to play again while in FL.

Great Value and GREAT Back 9

Played master's Sunday ahead of Tiger's big win. 1st two groups off the back and played in 1.5 hours.

the front nine was a bit slower as expected.

Back nine is what made the course for me, each hole is great. Front is a bit more pedestrian, but still worth the time.

Greens fees were modest compared to other courses we played. $88 on a Sunday morning works for me for a course this good.

It is an average course with no range

Was sad to see we only had nets to hit into vs. a range. Wish I had known that myself, hence I mention it early.

Course was wet, but in ok shape. None of the bunkers seemed to have been attended to, given the rain the night before I was surprised.

There are 2-3 memorable holes (bulkhead par 3 followed by the #1 handicap hole was a nice stretch and the finishing par 5 was very nice) otherwise just an average golf course in my opinion.

The staff was very nice, it was in decent shape, I just found it boring.

Special Course

Played it twice in the same day from different tees. I LOVED the layout, so many great holes - some short, some long, over marsh, it was just an enjoyable round of golf.

I will be back next time in Myrtle and hope to do 36 again.

Great condition - Play the correct tees

As always, in great shape!!! tee to green was perfect.

Word of advice, play the correct tees. I tried tees a little longer than I needed to be and had a much more difficult afternoon vs when I played the white tees, Pace of play was slooow both days I played, 5+ hours.

Driver 7 iron is much better than driver 5 wood into par 4's.

Staff in and outside were very welcoming and helpful.

Average course in below average conditions. The fairways were not great.

New greens, should be good in 12 months or so. Would say go to Dunes West or Rivertowne instead.

Great shape at the moment

And a solid golf course. It is a resort so pace of play can (and was) be an issue.

That said, I would play here again tomorrow. Look for online deals as well.

Could be good

The course is in rough shape at the moment. Our cart was on it's death bed.

I want to like it here, but I cannot come back until the conditions improve. She could be a gem.

Pleasant Surpise

I had been told the course wasn't in the best shape or high on the TPC rankings. However, it was in excellent shape tee to green and a really enjoyable track.

I would play here again in a heartbeat.

Underwhelmed

I had read so much about Streamsong and was overly excited to play it. Driving up the views were stunning, clubhouse is first class and the views around the putting green are awesome.

Played the Red, the 1st tee shot had my heart racing as you sit above the fairway and take in the entire hole.

It was windy that day, this added to some of my frustration, but my two biggest disappointments were the condition of the course, the was GUR everywhere and the greens were beat up .

Secondly, the greens were huge, which is fine, but a bit "gimmicky" in my opinion. Plus the pins were on humps and mounds which made a windy day even more frustrating.

The haldfway house has some seriously good smoked brisket, highly recommend that. The scenery was amazing as well. I would try it again, but was not impressed my 1st time out.

Play Lodestone instead

Front 9 is tight and not that interesting. Holes 10-14 are really good though with nice views and a fun layout. Last 4 holes are average.

If you have the chance play the other course here, Lodestone. Far and away a better course and 4-5 star layout and conditions.

Overall not a bad course but was left underwhelmed after playing Lodestone yesterday

Plesant Surprise

On a golf trip to Charleston we decided to play a course we had never seen. At $42 we were curious what we would get.

The course was excellent and challenging. Conditions were great and the greens were rolling superb.

Some really interesting and undulating greens as well as some really well thought out holes made this course a pleasant surprise and will be added to the yearly rotation.

Wasn't expecting much based on the range, putting green and pro shop...don't judge a book by its cover I guess.
