Wellman Golf Club

Murrells Inlet, SC · 25 mi away

Blackmoor Golf Club is set on the site of the former Longwood Plantation in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, along the Waccamaw River in the Myrtle Beach area. River views, wetlands and moss-draped oaks reflect the property's agricultural past, and a Civil War-era graveyard sits on the grounds. The course was designed by Gary Player and opened in 1990, remaining his only design along the Grand Strand. Doglegs appear on roughly half the holes, and Player built the layout to be playable for average golfers rather than punishing from tee to green. Blackmoor operates as a public daily-fee course, playing to a maximum of 6,614 yards from the back tees with three additional forward tee sets. It remains a regular stop for visiting golf groups in the Myrtle Beach market.

Heathland is the links-inspired member of the three-course Legends Golf Resort complex in Myrtle Beach. Tom Doak designed the par-71 layout as an American interpretation of golf in the British Isles, using broad, mostly treeless corridors, exposed wind, deep bunkers and rough tight to the fairways to create the challenge. The open ground gives golfers room to choose lines, but the best angle into each green often depends on avoiding the course's strategically placed hazards. Highlanders Double Eagle Tavern is the main-clubhouse stop for Heathland, Moorland and Parkland, serving breakfast and lunch with a full bar and televisions. The separate Ailsa Pub is a Scottish-inspired evening gathering place in the resort's Turnberry Park neighborhood, giving golf groups another place to continue the day after the clubhouse closes.

Conway, SC · 26 mi away

Wild Wing Plantation in Conway is a 27-hole facility minutes from downtown Myrtle Beach, built around the 18-hole Avocet course and the nine-hole Hummingbird. Avocet is credited to architect Jeff Brauer and three-time major champion Larry Nelson, and it leans on variety rather than length: drivable par 4s, double greens and split fairways, with undulating putting surfaces and surrounding swales that put a premium on the short game. The drivable par-4 14th gives players of any ability a look at eagle. Wild Wing is part of the Founders Collection of Myrtle Beach courses and is open to public play.
