Grande Dunes Resort Course Named Myrtle Beach’s Best by WMBF Viewers

When travelers look for local insight to guide their plans, few endorsements carry more weight than one from the people who know a destination best. That’s why the latest honor for the Resort Course at Grande Dunes is especially meaningful.
The acclaimed layout was recently voted Best Golf Course in Myrtle Beach by viewers of WMBF, the Grand Strand’s NBC affiliate. The recognition not only reflects the course’s popularity among visitors—it confirms the high regard locals have for this unforgettable golf experience.
Elevated by Renovation, Defined by Design
Grande Dunes has long been a favorite among golfers, but a sweeping renovation in 2022 elevated the Roger Rulewich design to new heights. The project restored nearly 40,000 square feet of putting surface, bringing the greens back to their original size and character. At the same time, the course’s bunkers were fully rebuilt and eight acres of fairway were added, making generous landing areas even more playable.
Off the course, the clubhouse also underwent a full transformation, highlighted by the addition of Terrazza 19, a contemporary restaurant offering panoramic views and upscale dining.
Iconic Intracoastal Holes & Strategic Play
What sets Grande Dunes apart is the rare combination of breathtaking scenery and intelligent shot values. With five holes bordering the Intracoastal Waterway, including the unforgettable par-3 14th, the course delivers some of the most dramatic visuals in Myrtle Beach golf.
But it’s not just about beauty—Grande Dunes rewards strategy and precision. Its wide fairways give players room off the tee, while still demanding thoughtful positioning to set up ideal approaches. The greens are large, imaginative, and versatile, allowing for a wide range of pin placements that keep each round fresh and engaging.
Why Grande Dunes Earned the Title
From start to finish, Grande Dunes offers a complete golf experience: scenic holes, modern amenities, and a layout that challenges and delights. The recognition from WMBF’s viewers reinforces what players already know—Grande Dunes isn’t just a must-play in Myrtle Beach, it’s the benchmark.
