About Prestwick Country Club (Myrtle Beach, SC)
Once you play it, it’s easy to see why the Prestwick Country Club designed by legendary golf course architect Pete Dye and his son, P.B. Dye, required the removal of more than 1.2 million cubic yards of earth. Located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, this golf course features stairway bunkers, bulkhead protected greens, and towering berms all make this golf course a challenge for any golfer, regardless of skill level.
Prestwick offers a wide variety of terrain for a coastal course with sandy waste areas, lush pine forest, and lakes and streams bordering wide landing areas. Players can enjoy those landing areas from six sets of tees, offering a greater degree of latitude for golfers of varying skills than most courses. Well known for well-maintained and smooth greens, this course sports an exquisite clubhouse facing a picturesque lake. Golf Digest recently named Prestwick one of the “Five Best Kept Secrets in America” and rightly so.
The clubhouse at Prestwick overlooks the 9th hole, 18th hole and Prestwick Lake. Measuring in at 7,058 yards, this course has a fully stocked pro shop, restaurant, and practice facilities and offers golfers guest access to private locker rooms and lounges.

We Played Prestwick ...
We Played Prestwick CC 8-16-20. Course was spectacular. All of the greens, tee boxes, bunkers, and fairways were in prime condition. I especially enjoyed holes 9 and 18. What a wonderful way to end each nine, with challanging holes along a gigantic lake! Overall I would love to play it again, one of the top courses I have played in Myrtle Beach so far!

Fast Greens, Great Layout, Impressive Club House, 5 star golf course!
Great condition tee ...
Great condition tee to green. I have never played better greens anywhere. This course is challenging but fair. Put your ego aside and play the correct tee boxes and you'll have one memorable round of golf. Beautiful clubhouse and friendly staff.
I have been playing at Prestwick since 1990. I am a golf professional ...
I have been playing at Prestwick since 1990. I am a golf professional and a lifetime member of the PGA. I played in the Carolinas Section events and the Carolina Open. Playedsome events on the Sun Belt tour. It is in the top five courses I have ever played. I judge a course on many things. The course was also in great condition. It was very demanding from 100 yards in and I really liked that challenge. You were always rewarded for good shots and if a shot missed on the approach, it was a challenge to get up and down. On a scale of 100, I would give it a95 to 98. Putting was a challenge. I really liked how Dye had presented the layout. I have played about 15 of the courses that have been used for tour events. I feel that any level of golfer would really enjoy the challenge of playing it and I would highly recommend it.
Beautiful layout. Greens fast and true. Course is in terrific shape.

Prestwick is a Hidden Gem...
Prestwick is a Hidden Gem and for those of you want to test your golfing skills, this is the course you need to play. Their whole staff is friendly and courteous from the time you drop your bags off to the time your counting your score while having a cocktail over looking the 9th and 18th fairway and greens. They have numerous Tee Boxes to hit from for all Level of players and the fairways are fantastic. This course has many bunkers and water hazards as well to test your ability, but hey, who’s afraid of a little water? Lol. The greens are beautiful, they run fast and true. They also have a driving range and practice green area as well and I was very happy I took advantage of it before I went to the 1st Tee. Of all the courses played in Myrtle Beach, This course is amazing and is definitely a must play again course very soon. Best Course in Myrtle Beach by far and what a great time we had. Will tell all my friends about it.

Beautiful layout, with challenging holes
Beautiful layout, with challenging holes but not so difficult as to be unfair. Allows the use of every club in the bag. Greens are the best on the Grand Strand. So much fun that you will want to come back time and time again!
