Great layout but average conditions with very slow greens. The low price matched the condition of the course. There are much better courses out there for a few more dollars.

Velcro greens

Awsome difficult tight course suited for low handicaps. Greens were long and super slow. I wouldn't go back because of the greens.

Fun course

This is a nice course to play
Unfortunately the course had recently been deluged with rain and most of the bunkers were in terrible shape but I’m sure they will have that fixed up in a few days..we played all cartpath which slows things down anyway but still completed the round in just over four hours.
Always enjoy coming here,great staff

Improvements noticed

The course is in much better condition than the last time that I played Diamond Back. Overseeded fairways, very good greens and a pace of play, a little over 4 hrs., was very good for Myrtle Beach courses. The location is a fair drive from town, but the price and conditions made it worth the drive. A very good experience for the money.

Great first time

Despite the near freezing temperatures, the course was in great shape and is a very challenging layout. Greens rolled true and water hazards are well marked, which is nice since we had not played before. Will definitely play here again on future trips to MB.

Fun day on the links

We enjoyed another great visit to this course.Our 1st of 2023,but not our last.
We are snowbirds so we have been able to golf here several times in the last few years
The staff and hospitality here is great from bag drop off to the bar/food counter.
Considering it had rained very hard the previous day,only 5 holes were cart path only,so the course drains well.
The only issue I may have was the absence of a course Marshall…although this is vacation golf,the group ahead we’re slow and it might have sped up play a little if someone was there to give them a nudge..
Other then that,it was a great day
We have already booked again for this week..
