About the course
Why golfers play The Pearl Golf Links
The Pearl Golf Links in Calabash, NC is a Dan Maples design from 1987 with three rotating nines, East, North and West, overlooking the Calabash River and marsh. At 7,037 yards with a slope of 137 and a course rating of 73.2 it is a stern test for low handicaps who drive the ball well, while forward tees and wide, pine lined fairways keep it fair for mid handicappers and mixed groups. The par 5 16th, a leftward dogleg guarded by water, is the hole players talk about. It fits as the North Carolina round in a three or four round golf trip.

★★★★★“Nicely kept and wonderful greens”
★★★★★“Very nice course, good condition, fun to play.”
★★★★★“The course was good, the cart paths and golf carts need some attention. Especially when compared to other courses in the area”
★★★★★“A nice course, no complaints!”
★★★★★“Beautiful course. Greens were slow and there was no rolling up onto the green. Very friendly staff. Lacking bathroom facilities on the East course. Very playable for women! Staff was great.”
★★★★★“Good condition, some holes very bad grass areas on fairway. Excellent course given drought still enjoyed, pace also incredible slow”
★★★★★“The course was in excellent shape, and the staff was very courteous. We had rain forecast for the final day of play, and the course was very helpful in moving our play to the afternoon before the forecast rain. I will definitely keep this course in our annual Golf trip.”
★★★★★“Quite a beautiful course, with nothing overly difficult.”
★★★★★“Beautiful surroundings, but the course was a bit rough. It was playable but not worth $100.”
★★★★★“First time at this course and was a joy to play 2 rounds in the day. Greens tricky with pin placements mainly on crowns. Generous fairways and course was well maintained. Staff very helpful and will play here again no doubt. Course management is the key for most players in order to avoid getting into trouble.”
★★★★★“Course was in good condition. Layout was competitive. Greens were somewhat ridiculous.”
★★★★★“Definition of green and collar not so good. They do not offer handicap flags. I was told to many people were asking for them. I still had bad sciatica symptoms and needed on.e. More than 1 way to skin a cat. We had no GPS on carts so I took privilege and drove within reason to my ball. Of course I did not drive up to gree but more so than usual. They need to accommodate folks with disabilities.”
★★★★★“Nice course, but they told me they don't issue handicap flags anymore. I desperately needed this. Aren't they suppose to accommodate folks with physical issues ?”
★★★★★“Over seeding and heavy watering made it very unpleasant to play”
★★★★★“Good course Not easy”
★★★★★“The old East course holes are the best, very scenic.”
★★★★★“Not in good shape, were not allowed to drive carts on back 9 fairway despite dry conditions.”
★★★★★“Average and overpriced.”
★★★★★“Not good. Went off 40 minutes late. Then played behind slow group and they were never warned”
★★★★★“Very slow play. Multiple groups on nearly ever hole, turned into a 5+ hour round.”
★★★★★“Tough but in fabulous shape”
★★★★★“The course was fair and some of the tee boxes could have been in better shape.”
★★★★★“Course in great shape.”
★★★★★“Narrow, tree lined fairways made this a difficult course if you are not hitting it straight. Course is in great shape.”
