About this course

Man O' War Golf Club opened in 1996 as part of the Legends Golf Resort complex in Myrtle Beach, designed by Dan Maples. The course takes its name from the legendary racehorse and carries a Scottish links theme throughout its design, though it sits firmly in the South Carolina Lowcountry landscape. Maples routed the course across gently rolling terrain with strategic use of mounding, deep pot bunkers, and waste areas that evoke traditional seaside golf despite being located several miles inland from the Atlantic coast. The layout features wide fairways that encourage aggressive play off the tee, but approach shots demand precision to elevated, undulating greens protected by the architect's signature deep bunkering. Water comes into play on several holes, and the course incorporates native grasses and sandy areas that frame the playing corridors. The design emphasizes ground game options and rewards creative shot-making rather than relying solely on aerial assault. As part of the Legends complex, Man O' War shares facilities with two other courses on the property and attracts a steady flow of golf tourists visiting the Grand Strand. The course has hosted various regional amateur events and remains a popular choice among the dozens of public-access courses in the Myrtle Beach area. The clubhouse serves all three courses at the resort and provides standard amenities for daily-fee players making their way through one of America's most concentrated golf destinations.

Getting there

Most visitors arrive through Myrtle Beach International Airport, a compact and efficient gateway less than twenty minutes from the club's entrance along the Grand Strand's northern reaches. The drive from the terminal follows Highway 17, that storied coastal artery threading through a landscape of salt marshes and lowcountry pine, before turning inland toward the quieter residential enclaves where Man O' War Golf resides. The transition is swift and deliberate - within minutes, the neon bustle of the beach strip gives way to gated serenity, and the first glimpses of Dan Maples' sculpted fairways emerge through the Carolina pines like a hushed invitation to something altogether more refined.
