The Dunes Golf & Beach Club
The Dunes Golf & Beach Club is a standout course in Myrtle Beach, known for its dramatic layout, historic significance, and stunning coastal views. Designed by Robert Trent Jones, the course winds through towering pines, rolling dunes, and stretches of pristine beach. One of the most unique features is the 13th hole, a par-5 that plays alongside the Intracoastal Waterway, requiring a daring shot over water. The course combines natural beauty with strategic design, featuring large greens, undulating fairways, and a few well-placed bunkers. It’s the perfect blend of challenge and beauty, making it a must-play for any golf enthusiast.
TPC Myrtle Beach
If you’re seeking a championship-level golf course with a unique atmosphere, TPC Myrtle Beach should be at the top of your list.

The 18th hole is a memorable par-5 that wraps around a picturesque lake, requiring a challenging approach shot to an elevated green. The course is part of the PGA Tour’s TPC network, but it maintains a welcoming and relaxed vibe, allowing you to experience professional-level golf in a non-tour setting. Its pristine conditions and thoughtful design make it one of Myrtle Beach’s most unique golfing experiences.

King’s North at Myrtle Beach National is a course known for its creativity and strategic challenges.

The course’s standout feature is the famous “Alcatraz” hole, the par-3 12th, which has a green entirely surrounded by water, requiring a precise shot to avoid the hazards. King’s North also offers a mix of long and short holes, doglegs, and water features that test golfers’ skills and decision-making abilities. This variety, along with its stunning layout, makes it a unique choice for golfers who enjoy a challenge with every hole.
The Witch Golf Club
For a golf course that feels like it’s straight out of a ghost story, The Witch Golf Club delivers an atmosphere like no other. Set amidst dense forests and wetlands, this course feels almost mystical, with towering trees, fog-covered marshes, and winding fairways that create a haunting ambiance. Designed by Dan Maples, The Witch uses water hazards strategically, with water coming into play on nearly every hole. The course feels secluded and eerie, offering a unique mix of natural beauty and creative design that’s perfect for golfers looking for a memorable challenge. Its combination of dense forests, eerie wetlands, and tricky water features makes The Witch one of the most distinctive courses in the region.
Caledonia Golf & Fish Club
Caledonia Golf & Fish Club offers a truly unique experience set on a historic rice plantation. The course is renowned for its stunning beauty, with majestic live oaks draped in Spanish moss and an atmosphere that feels straight out of the South’s storied past. The design incorporates narrow fairways, subtle doglegs, and strategic water hazards that make each hole a fresh challenge.
