INDIGO CREEK GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Murrells Inlet, SC, USA
Designed by Willard Byrd


Indigo Creek Golf Club sits in Murrells Inlet along South Carolina's Grand Strand, a stretch of coastline known for its concentration of golf courses between Myrtle Beach and Pawleys Island. Designed by Willard Byrd and opened in 1981, the course occupies land characterized by the Lowcountry's natural features: tidal marshes, hardwood stands, and winding creeks that give the property its name. Byrd, a prolific architect in the Carolinas during the latter half of the twentieth century, routed the layout to incorporate these water features throughout the round.
The course plays through a mix of wooded corridors and open marsh vistas, with several holes running alongside or crossing tidal waterways. The routing takes advantage of elevation changes modest by coastal standards, and the design reflects the era's emphasis on strategic bunkering and water hazards that require careful club selection and course management. Live oaks draped with Spanish moss frame many holes, providing both aesthetic character and tactical considerations off the tee.
Indigo Creek functions as a semi-private facility and has served the Murrells Inlet community for more than four decades. The course appeals to both residents and visitors exploring the Grand Strand's golf offerings, providing a layout that balances accessibility with the natural challenges inherent to Lowcountry terrain. Its longevity in a competitive market reflects its solid design fundamentals and the enduring appeal of golf integrated into South Carolina's coastal landscape.
