About the course

Why golfers play Heritage Club

Heritage Club in Pawleys Island is a Dan Maples design from 1986 on a former rice plantation along the Waccamaw River, with green complexes later reworked by Mike Strantz. At 6,960 yards, par 71, with a slope of 139 and a course rating of 74.1, it is a stern test for low handicaps and confident players, and its huge, boldly contoured greens keep every group thinking. The par 3 13th, 235 yards over water, is the hole visitors talk about. Centuries old live oaks and a manor clubhouse make it a cornerstone of a Pawleys Island golf package.

“Great condition, friendly staff, very nice layout with large undulating greens where landing on right quadrant is a premium. Greens were rolling 10/10.5 It came with complementary breakfast and lunch. Played the front in 1.5hr, back 2.5hrs. I will definitely play it again next time I’m back in Pawleys Island”
