Aberdeen Country Club

The Meadows course at Aberdeen Country Club in Longs, South Carolina, was designed by Tom Jackson and serves as one of the club's multiple layouts in the Myrtle Beach area's northern reaches. The course occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of the Carolina coastal plain, with routing that works through natural wetlands, pine forests, and open meadow areas that give the course its name. Jackson's design emphasizes strategic variety over severe difficulty, incorporating water hazards and waste areas that define playing corridors without overwhelming recreational golfers. The layout features a mix of risk-reward opportunities and straightforward holes, with greens that typically offer reasonable receptiveness while still requiring thoughtful approach play. Elevation changes remain modest throughout, though the routing takes advantage of natural land movement to create visual interest and varied lies. Several holes play along or across wetland preserves, adding both scenic quality and strategic consideration to club selection and shot placement. Aberdeen Country Club operates within the broader context of Myrtle Beach golf, where numerous courses serve both local membership and visiting golfers. The Meadows functions as part of a multi-course facility, providing variety for members and contributing to the club's overall golf offerings. The course reflects the regional design approach common to the area during its development period, balancing playability for a range of skill levels with enough challenge to maintain interest for regular play.
