The tram ride across the Intracoastal Waterway sets the tone for a beautiful day. From the air, gorgeous facility. Most of the holes are challenging and quite beautiful. On many holes, some major local knowledge is needed... like how many yards to lay up before a lake, ravine, etc. I can't wait to go back and play again now that I know more about it. The day we played the course was loaded with kids. Fathers bringing their sons. How much that contributed to our 5+ hr. round, I don't know. Groups are sent off rapid fire onto the 1st tee. I think it was mostly vacationers from Northeast the week we played. I haven't encountered slow play like that very often in Myrtle Beach and am not sure if it was the fault of Waterway Hills or just the fact that we hit a day with lots of fathers and sons. Those kids had a tremendous time hacking it all over the place and their dads let them drive the carts a little and bought them ice cream at the turn. The father's were nervous wrecks, didn't seem like they were enjoying it a bit. Kids leaving clubs all over, etc. It was all good though!
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
