With over one hundred golf courses in Myrtle Beach, it’s easy for some of them to get lost in the crowd. There are many Myrtle Beach golf courses that offer spectacular layouts and great play, but receive very little publicity. Here are some of Myrtle Beach’s most underrated golf courses.

Blackmoor Golf Club opened in 1990, and was renovated in 2003, making the greens faster and more durable. The golf course features lakes, moss-draped oaks, pines and cypress, and is known as a shot-makers golf course. It is 6,614 yards from the tips.

Brick Landing golf club also recently underwent a major renovation intended to make the course more player-friendly. It's known as one of the more scenic courses in the area, and was designed by H. M. Brazea to feature some great ocean views. The first two holes and the last two play along the waterway. Four holes on the back side are adjacent to Sauce Pan Creek, a saltwater marsh filled with wildlife.

Crow Creek Golf Plantation is a favorite with locals and visitors alike due to their anti-herd-them-through mentality. People would rather pay a little more and get more out of it. Overall, the course is a well-groomed, playable layout with large, bentgrass greens and a pleasing, traditional layout. The front picks its way through old tobacco fields and vegetable gardens, and its flatness makes it susceptible to the coastal breezes that kick up in early afternoons.

Lockwood Folly golf course is one of Myrtle Beach’s most secluded courses. The semi-private, member-owned course was a finalist for Myrtle Beach Golf Magazine's "most picturesque course" and "friendliest golf staff" in 2002. At 6,838 yards, the course has three par 5s longer than 500 yards, six par 4s that are more than 400 yards, and all the par 3s are 200 yards or longer.

Myrtlewood Golf Club’s Pine Hills course doesn't get as much publicity as its sister course, Palmetto, but actually may be the better course. It was nominated for Golf Digest's 1994 "Best new resort course" and measures 6,640 yards from the back tees.

Oyster Bay was voted the 1983 Golf Digest "resort course of the year" and ranked by the same publication among the top 50 public courses in the country in 1990. While Oyster Bay fell out of favor with the major golf publications and their rankings as new courses opened, those who continue to play it swear by it.
