About Pine Lakes Country Club

Pine Lakes Country Club holds a unique and irreplaceable place in American golf history as the original Grand Strand golf course — the club that started Myrtle Beach's transformation into the golf capital of the world. Founded in 1927, Pine Lakes exudes old-world elegance with its grand clubhouse, Scottish-influenced design, and the dignified traditions that come from nearly a century of operation. The course itself plays through towering longleaf pines and features classic bunkering and medium-sized greens that reward traditional shot-making. Known affectionately as 'The Granddaddy,' Pine Lakes is a pilgrimage site for golf history enthusiasts and anyone who wants to experience the roots of the Grand Strand's extraordinary golf legacy.

History

Pine Lakes Country Club was founded in 1927, making it the oldest golf course on the Grand Strand and the establishment that launched Myrtle Beach's identity as a golf destination. Designed with a Scottish influence, the course was built as a premier retreat for East Coast vacationers. In a remarkable footnote to American media history, the concept for Sports Illustrated magazine was first pitched in the Pine Lakes clubhouse in 1954. The course has been lovingly preserved and restored to honor its nearly century-long legacy.

Golf history enthusiasts and first-time Myrtle Beach visitors who want to experience the course that started it all — a genuine American golf landmark.
