River Club, Pawleys Island, SC

River Club is now part of the Founders Collection, a golf management company, that took over this club right before we golfed here. There was a lot of talk about the course being "taken over" but so far everything seemed fine. The course was a little wet in spots because there was a lot of rain and there was some work being done so some machinery around, but seemed in fine condition. There are bathrooms on the course but no cart girl and no driving range.  There are water hazards on several of the holes but nothing really "scary". We'll play this course again.

The Legends - Heathland, Myrtle Beach, SC

The Legends Golf & Resort has five golf courses and offers breakfast and lunch with every round of golf. We've golfed at two of the five courses previously. Heathland is the links style golf course and like all of the Legends golf courses was pretty crowded.  The Legends is a popular place for groups coming into the Myrtle Beach area and with good reason.  It's always in good condition and you receive good service from everyone. There's a nice driving range, a full service clubhouse, a beautiful "pub" and great staff. I've never stayed there but the accomodations look very nice. We enjoyed the course very much (even though I'm not fond of links style). It was in great condition, especially for the "end" of season.
