Description

Opened in February 2008, the Founders Club in Pawleys Island is built on the land of Sea Gull golf course, which shut down in 2005 to begin the approximately $7 million Founders Club project. Thomas Walker skippered the design, a visually dramatic yet accommodating round of golf.

The Founders Club at Pawleys Island makes an excellent addition to any Myrtle Beach golf vacation, rivaling top upscale Grand Strand golf courses such as Caledonia Golf & Fish Club, True Blue and Pawleys Plantation.

I've not experienced harder greens on the Grand Strand. I am also not a fan of the defined, outlined fairways. As I play in the area frequently, I will play it again I am sure, but, it would not be ... more»

Where to begin... The course layout is terrible. You cross a public road 14 times including a very dangerous trek from #3 to #4. The greens are very hard and will not hold a shot. They do roll t ... more»
