About this course

The Cypress/Waterway combination at Arrowhead Country Club represents eighteen holes drawn from two of the facility's three nine-hole layouts, designed by Raymond Floyd and Tom Jackson. Arrowhead opened in 1995 as part of Myrtle Beach's extensive golf development during that era, offering twenty-seven holes that allow for three distinct eighteen-hole rotations. Floyd, a major championship winner who transitioned into course design, worked with Jackson to create layouts that navigate the Lowcountry terrain characteristic of this coastal South Carolina region. The Cypress nine takes its name from the native trees that define much of the Carolina coast, suggesting a routing through wetland corridors and natural vegetation. The Waterway nine references the Intracoastal Waterway system that runs through the Myrtle Beach area, indicating holes that play along or near tidal marshes and water features. The combination typically presents a mix of parkland-style holes framed by pines and hardwoods alongside more open stretches where water and marsh grasses come into play. Arrowhead operates as a semi-private facility, accessible to both members and daily-fee players, which is common in the Myrtle Beach market. The course serves the area's robust golf tourism industry while maintaining a local membership base. The design emphasizes playability across different skill levels, with multiple tee options that allow the course to accommodate the wide range of golfers who visit the Grand Strand annually.

Getting there

The journey to Arrowhead Country Club begins at Myrtle Beach International Airport, a convenient fifteen-minute drive from the property, making it one of the Grand Strand's most accessible championship layouts. The route west from the coast trades the bustle of Ocean Boulevard for the quieter inland reaches of the Intracoastal Waterway corridor, where Spanish moss and tidal creeks signal the transition into the Lowcountry proper. Arrowhead sits tucked among natural wetlands and mature hardwoods, its entrance emerging just off Highway 17 Bypass - a secluded retreat that feels worlds removed from the resort strip, yet remains remarkably close to the heart of Myrtle Beach.
