About this course

Moorland at Legends Golf and Resort echoes with a Scottish spirit amidst the Carolina pines, a testament to its design philosophy invoking a classic heathland experience, only with a decidedly Myrtle Beach bent. P.B. Dye's 1990 layout assaults the senses, where generous fairways belie the devilish bunkering that awaits errant approaches. Expect bold undulations, both on the fairways and the greens, and a need for strategic shot-making over sheer length—a welcome respite from the area's bomber's paradises. Legends Golf and Resort is home to the area's only true "19th hole," A massive Scottish style pub named Alisa's Pub after his daughter. While Moorland hasn't hosted professional majors, it remains a popular stop for regional amateurs, known more as a stern but fair test of golf than a stage for high-profile competition. The course holds its own as a solid, if not nationally renowned, example of modern links-inspired architecture. Moorland attracts a loyal following of those who appreciate its unique character in a region often dominated by more conventional resort-style courses, and enjoy a post-round pint at Alisa's pub. A membership at the Legends is a lifestyle, where weekend rounds segue seamlessly into convivial gatherings and a shared love of the game's traditions.

Getting there

Legends Golf and Resort sits just inland from the Atlantic coastline, accessed most conveniently via Myrtle Beach International Airport - a compact, efficient gateway less than fifteen minutes from the property. The drive from the terminal follows the familiar rhythm of the Grand Strand, trading commercial corridors for the quieter stretches of Highway 501, where billboards give way to glimpses of coastal pine and the promise of championship golf. For those arriving by private aircraft, Grand Strand Airport offers a discreet alternative with direct access to the resort's northern environs. The final turn onto Legends Drive signals arrival at one of the region's most storied golf destinations, where Scottish-inspired architecture rises from the Carolina Lowcountry.
