Why groups book it
What you are paying for at Legends Golf Resort - Moorland Course
The pedigree
P.B. Dye
A Links Style layout that opened in 1991 and plays to a par of 72 over 6,737 yards.
The test
Slope 140
A slope of 140 over 6,737 yards from the tips. The back tees are a genuine examination for a scratch player, and the forward sets keep everyone else moving.
The greens
Bermuda
Putting surfaces are Bermuda. The practice ground carries a chipping green, a driving range and a putting green, so the speed is no surprise on the first green.
The verdict
4.3 out of 5
Across 1,525 reviews left by golfers who booked through us, 83% scored Legends Golf Resort - Moorland Course four stars or better. None of it is edited and none of it is paid for.
The course
The golf at Legends Golf Resort - Moorland Course
The numbers define this one. Par 72 over just 6,737 yards with a slope of 140 means the difficulty comes from trouble and shot demands rather than length, and the course is rated hard. Greens are Bermuda. Zach Nesbit holds the record at 63.
Practice facilities at the Legends complex include a driving range, putting green and chipping green, all at 1500 Legends Dr in Myrtle Beach, which makes it straightforward to build several rounds around one location.
The review evidence is limited and should be treated as such. Twelve reviews are on file at a 3.08 average, which is the lowest in this group, but the star by star breakdown is not available and there is no verbatim feedback on conditioning, layout or service to draw on. Twelve ratings is too small a sample to call this a verdict on the course. What can be said is that the small pool of players who did rate it were noticeably less enthusiastic than average, and that combined with the 140 slope, this is not a course to book blind for a group of mid to high handicappers.

Greens under maintenance
Greens were punched
Only played 8 holes due to thunderstorms. Greens were very bumpy due to aeration but we knew ahead of time
Good accommodations. Rob was great to work with and responsive to all requests and questions we had

This course is beautiful.
Nice course. A bit long for us older guys
I find this the nicest course at legends
Nice course but was very wet, to wet.
A little tougher than Heathland, but still very good.
Person working in Pro Shop very rude and unprofessional. You’re in a customer oriented business, if you can’t treat the customer with respect then you shouldn’t be working there. Greens were in terrible conditions.
So backed up. Had 3 groups waiting on the same tee box. 6 hour round.
Spectacular layout. Greens were a bit wore due to the rain conditions earlier in the week. Overall, a great golf course
Greens were bad.
Good course. I’m pretty decent shape. Surprisingly greens weren’t in grape shape.
The course was ok, and we had the same issue with the beverage cart. Saw it on the 1st hole (pointless) and the 9th hole (also pointless) and not again the entire round. The greens had same issue as Heathland as well.
I always play this course well
Loved the golf course. Unfortunately maintenance was aerating the tee box. Otherwise phenomenal golf course
Dye certainly moved a lot of earth when they made this course. It felt like every green was on a hill.
Very difficult for our level. Some tough pin placements.
3rd best, nice course as well
