What you are paying for at Myrtlewood Golf Club - Pine Hills Course

The pedigree

Arthur Hills

A Traditional layout that opened in 1966 and plays to a par of 72 over 6,640 yards.

The test

Slope 132

6,640 yards and a slope of 132. Enough teeth to be worth the tee time, fair enough that the whole group finishes with a card worth signing.

The greens

Sunday Bermuda

Putting surfaces are Sunday Bermuda. The practice ground carries a chipping green, a driving range and a practice bunker, so the speed is no surprise on the first green.

The verdict

4.2 out of 5

Across 847 reviews left by golfers who booked through us, 85% scored Myrtlewood Golf Club - Pine Hills Course four stars or better. None of it is edited and none of it is paid for.

The course

The golf at Myrtlewood Golf Club - Pine Hills Course

Arthur Hills laid out Pine Hills in 1980 on the Myrtlewood property off 48th Avenue North, a genuinely central address that puts it minutes from most of the hotel stock. It measures 6,640 yards at full stretch to a par of 72, with a slope of 132 and a medium difficulty rating. The greens are Sunday Bermuda. Jay McAllister holds the record at 64.

The design is traditional rather than dramatic, which is exactly why it keeps turning up early in people's itineraries. One reviewer called it a perfect starter course. Another described it as fair, with fairways in great shape. The layout gives you room off the tee and asks more of the approach game, and the practice area covers a chipping green, driving range and practice bunker, so there is enough to warm up properly before an opening round.

The numbers back the reputation up. Of 886 reviews the average is 4.22, split evenly at the top with 377 five star and 377 four star ratings against 97 threes, 19 twos and just 16 ones. That is a low complaint rate for a course with this much traffic. Where the criticism lands is consistent and worth knowing. Conditioning wobbles in dry stretches, with one player noting that lies were thin during a drought, which is a seasonal issue rather than a design one. The sharper theme is service and pace. Several reviewers describe cart and starter staff as rude and pushy, and slow play combined with overbooking shows up in the strongest negative comments. Set against that, a good number of the same reviews praise friendly staff and excellent conditions, so the experience is not uniform. Afternoon pace drew specific praise from one visitor, which is a useful hint when choosing a tee time. Weather is the other variable worth noting, since more than one review records a round washed out by a storm rather than anything the club did wrong. Taken together, Pine Hills reads as a dependable, centrally located round with a low chance of disappointment and a modest chance of an irritating hour at the cart barn.

Beautiful course that I’d like to play again. Unfortunately no gps on carts so sometimes unsure on approach yardage.

I wish we knew about the horse flies that played us from the 12th hole to the parking lot. As soon as we left, we went to a Walmart to buy bug spray. on a positive note we love the layout of the course we played Pine Hills staff. Everyone from starter to Rangers were very nice and accommodating. I would definitely recommend playing this course.

The only thing to complain about was we were one of the first groups to T off (if not the very first), and the flag was not installed on our green. So we were sitting in the middle of the fairway for about 10 minutes waiting to shoot onto the green while an employee installed the flag.

First time, have to say staff was great. However, fix them dang Greens man! Overall great course and we will absolutely play again. On the touch em all tour first.

Justin, Leicester
★★★ ★★ July 2025

The overall course and layout was good. It is a challenging course. I know last month is the typical green aeriation timeframe for many golf courses. We were told that the greens were still healing and a little bumpy and that if we weren’t satisfied after two holes, we could get a rain check. The greens were very bumpy, but had huge bare spots on 90% of them. The greens were in really bad condition which cost extra putts. Without knowing the next time i would be back in the Myrtle Beach area. I preferred to play the golf then take the rain check but the greens were disappointing.

Great course, would love to play it again on our next trip but play is too slow! Too many tee times with too little spacing. A course like this shouldnt take over 5 hours!

Nick, Prior Lake
★★★★ ★ April 2025

Excellent condition. Enjoyable layout. However, our group's tee times were split - divided by two foursomes. Complained to management - refused to adjust. Used nonsensical argument that it would disrupt the operation. Ridiculous.

Great condition & very kind staffs

Frank, Braselton
★★★★ ★ December 2024

Course conditions were great - tees, fairways and greens. We did find several greens where players did not fix their divot and a few bunkers that were not raked - not a course problem but a lack of player responsibility. We were a twosome that followed a threesome that were several holes ahead. We caught up with them by the 9th and they maintained a good speed. We took a little more time, so we never really waited for them. We finished in under 4 hours. The course could use a few more directional signs at greens pointing the way towards the next tee, notably going from 2nd green to 3rd tee.

STEPHEN
★★★★ ★ November 2024

Challenging, but playable. Lots of dog legs. There were no diagrams of the hole layout on the score card or tee blocks. Nice clubhouse .

The staff was very friendly, the course was in very good condition. Nice pro shop and clubhouse. Pace of play was reasonable at 4 hours and 10 minutes.

Prefer this one over the palmetto.

David, Charlotte
★★★★ ★ October 2024

In the best shape...........actual white sand in traps and quicker greens.

Greg, scotland
★★★★ ★ October 2024

This course was not as forgiving as Palmetto. We liked it but it got tough for us. But, honestly, it was probably bc we played 18 holes for three days straight, which we never do, so that had something to do with it. We were just gassed at the end. Definitely a decent course for us.

George, Grate Falls
★★★★★ October 2024

WE have played at Pine Hills before and that's why it was on our list for this year. Lovely and well maintained course. The holes were long but beautiful.
