Rating 77.3

Golf at Grande Dunes and Beach Club in North Myrtle Beach is played on a grand scale. The course is set high on a bluff overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, with panoramic views of the waterway and maritime forest. It's 7,618 yards, with a very difficult slope rating of 141. Five holes play along the waterway. The greens are grand, averaging 10,000 square feet with eight rotating pin placements, ensuring the course changes significantly from day to day. There is plenty of water, to be sure: the par-5 17th hole has water running down the entire left side and a moat fronting the green, for example. There are also some nice elevation changes; the par-3 14th hole has about a 65-foot drop, with the green jutting out over the waterway.

Beautifully laid out course

This course has a great design. From the tips at 7500+, it is a monster. Looked at several holes from the tips. But from the white tees at 6300 where I played today, it is pretty wide. Played the ball down since the fairways were so nice. Bunkers will not give up a ball. If one goes in, it stays in. Bunkers have great sand though, so you have a chance to recover. The greens are in perfect condition, not flat but not too crazy undulating, like Goldilocks says, just right. Some of the holes overlook the big adjacent river and have great views. Very pretty course, would love to play again.

The Best in Myrtle Beach!

Played the Grande Dunes on Sunday and the course was by far the best in Myrtle Beach. All the staff were attentive, professional and fun. The course has a very creative layout, lots of undulations, wide fairways and a multitude of tee boxes to choose from. The conditions were superb in Nov, including the greens! Plus the scenic views and lush landscaping around the cart paths I found really enhanced the overall experience. Worth every penny. I will definitely be back!

Great views

The course was an amazing shape, greens were true, well manicured. Some of the holes on the intercoastal were amazing.

A bit overpriced for a Myrtle Beach golf course

Pace

Second time playing in two weeks and both times I was the first group off in the morning. My foursome played the front in 1 hour 45 minutes and had to wait for two foursomes to tee off on #10. The round took 4-1/2 hours and I lost my groove having to wait on every shot on the back. Poor Course management

Nice Course, little pricy

Overall I liked the course layout, and it was in fairly good shape for October. My only real critique was the price. I clearly overpaid, but even with some discount I feel the course is over priced. 65 - 85 would be more in line. I did have a great experience and the staff was very friendly.

Course

Best course I have played in Myrtle Beach. No other track has the terrain and scenery that Grande Dunes has. It’s pricey but worth it if you want a quality round. Friendly staff and great practice areas.

Annual buddies trip

We had our annual buddies golf trip. We played the Dunes, and it did not disappoint. The fairways were excellent, and the greens were fast and true. The overall facility was outstanding, including the driving and chipping area. First class facility.

Great course

Course conditions were perfect. Only issue is the course length for seniors and women who do not hit as far as we use to. They could use an additional forward tee to make the play more enjoyable and keep the pace moving

Great course

Greens were rolling 10-11 very good for end of August. Fairways were in great shape but a little wet from recent rain showers.
