If a player can tame the Long Bay Club, he or she may feel confident enough to take on the Golden Bear as this Jack Nicklaus designed course is considered by many as one of the more difficult layouts on the Grand Strand. This links style course has countless large man-made mounds and can be quite a challenge near the green.

course was in the worst condition I’ve ever seen it was so bad I wanted to ask for my money back , they should be ashamed of themselves for even being open , it was a complete waste of time and I was embarrassed, I told my grandson that he was in for a treat and it turned out to be a disaster the Management there should be ashamed of the product they put out as a golf course

One of my least favorite courses. Not in very good shape and a bit “tricked out” like the elevated green on Number 10. I have played it several times and never cared for it.
