We played Moorland at Legends and the course is really quite beautiful and challenging, so I could see how it has the potential to be quite lovely, but on a recent trip to Myrtle Beach to play golf this month (May2018), two different golf courses, The Legends (Moorland) and Carolina National, failed to inform us until we were ready to tee off that their greens had been largely destroyed over the winter. On most greens, we were putting on sand or dirt, or on greens pocked with dead areas. I don’t thing we saw a decent green on either course. I can’t believe the courses didn’t re-sod their greens for peak season and more importantly, I thought it was dishonest to charge out-of-state visitors peak season rates for courses in such poor condition. It was also dishonest letting us book these courses and not informing us of the terrible green conditions until we were ready to tee off. I travelled over 1300 miles from Nebraska to play here. I understand why golf courses are reluctant to tell golfers when their course is in bad shape because people might cancel, or go elsewhere. As it is though, such dishonesty from these two major courses in the Myrtle Beach area will likely lead us to choose different golf destinations in the future. It may be a long time before we return to Myrtle Beach for golf.
