Man O' War: Golfers everywhere are lining up to go to war in Myrtle Beach. Rising up from the depths of a 100 acre lake, Man O' War is brimming with an arsenal of weapons. World renowned architect Dan Maples has launched a new campaign in the battle for par with a course that includes back-to-back island greens, and an awesome island ninth. For all its sparkling beauty, it can become the ultimate, punishing hazard. The course measures 6,967 yards off the back tees and includes an astonishing layout of intertwining holes that call into play a diversity of skills and provide even the advanced player with a challenge at every hole.




Barefoot Resorts - Love Course: Carolina native, Davis Love III incorporates the recreated ruins of an old plantation home along holes 3-7. Wide open fairways and generous landing areas set the stage for an unforgettable round of golf. The Love Course at Barefoot Resort is a traditional course with a Lowcountry character and incorporates Davis Love, III's Carolina golfing experiences in the design. This visually striking course features course generous landing areas and greens complexes similar to those found on Pinehurst #2 at the 1999 U.S. Open. The Love Course is a Par 72 and plays over 7,000 yards. The course will challenge the good player, yet provide playability and enjoyment for the average player.




Pawleys Plantation: Pawleys Plantation is a player's course. This Jack Nicklaus Signature Course is a rare design where extraordinary beauty combines with his masterful architecture to deliver an exceptional golf experience. Wide green fairways lead to subtle greens guarded by natural hazards like the Pawleys Island salt marsh and the barrier island beyond. The classic design has earned it recognition and praise from some of the nation's foremost golf authorities, including Golf Digest who ranked Pawleys Plantation among South Carolina's "Top 25 Layouts" in 2001.




Dunes Club: This legendary course by the sea is one of the most revered golf courses on the Grand Strand. The Dunes Club golf course was built in 1948 and is recognized as one of Robert Trent Jones finest designs. Since its inception, it has proved to be a world class course, offering the best in golf and member services. Each hole has its own descriptive name to give golfers an idea of what to expect before they tee off. “Waterloo”, hole 13, is the signature hole of the Dunes Course. Famous worldwide, its a legendary hole where Lake Singleton comes into play. “Waterloo” has received every accolade and award as one of the greatest golf holes in the world. Its live oaks and rolling terrain perfectly compliment views of the Atlantic Ocean. At 7,165 yards, the Dunes will test you off the tee and on the fairways and greens. This layout should provide an excellent challenge where the MB2K9 championship should be decided on the final day.
