Surf Club: 5 Things You Need to Know
Surf Club is one of Myrtle Beach's most revered courses, particularly by those who know the area golf scene well. Built in 1959, Surf Club grew into a private club but has opened up a limited number of tee times for public play in 2011.
Given that the course hasn't been available for public play in recent years, Surf Club is an unknown quantity to many Myrtle Beach golfers, but there is much to like. Here are five things you need to know about Surf Club:
1. You want to play it: Surf Club is Myrtle Beach's third oldest course and one of its best. Public tee times are limited but outside guests will be treated like members and the golf is outstanding. Surf Club is a course you will tell your friends at home about. Holes 10 and 18 are routinely ranked among the Grand Strand's best.
2. Expect to play fast: Because Surf Club remains, ostensibly, a private facility, there is an emphasis on maintaining a good pace of play. Players won't be rushed, but a relatively fast round of golf is a good one, especially if you want to play 36. Expect to play in four hours or less, seriously. Membership has its privileges.
