Open and expansive, True Blue will immediately immerse you in its challenge. There is a rugged beauty to its design which features broad landing areas off of the tee and truly uncommon natural elevation changes. Huge sandy waste areas have been retained for a striking contrast to the immaculate teeing areas, fairways and creative green complexes.

True Blue was named the “No. 1 Public Course in the Myrtle Beach Area” and made the list of “America’s Top 100 Public Courses.” Golfers enjoy playing this low-country masterpiece for its unforgettable backdrop.

Heritage Club Golf Course

Located in Pawley’s Island, the remarkable layout of the Heritage Club Golf Course winds its way along the wetlands of the Waccamaw River. Built on 600 acres of two former rice plantations, the golf club is nestled perfectly into its natural surroundings.

Charm aside, this par-71 course layout will challenge even the best of ball strikers. You’ll experience large undulating greens tightly guarded by water, sand or trees. The hilly terrain creates interesting shot selections along the rolling fairways. You’ll need to think your way along this course because there are quite a few doglegs.

The property features a practice center with grass range and chipping plus putting greens. An on-site clubhouse includes a nicely stocked pro shop, locker rooms with showers for men and women and a restaurant with an outdoor patio. It’s the perfect place to unwind after a wonderful day of golf.

Oyster Bay Golf Links

Just north of the Myrtle Beach area is Oyster Bay Golf Links, a golf course created by developer Larry Young and architect Dan Maples. The course is known for its marsh-oriented holes, two island green par threes and beautiful fresh water lakes as well as its long and short holes.

Wickedly undulating greens and lengthy par 4’s make this course a true test of one’s skill. Shots can send your ball flying over marsh grasses or water. Greens putt slowly due to old fashioned Bermuda greens. Fairway bunkers, trees and plenty of water hazards provide plenty of challenges when trying to make accurate shots.
