Legends Golf and Resort, a sprawling complex in Myrtle Beach, is steeped in the traditions of Scottish linksland, and the Parkland course, designed by Tom Doak, is a fitting testament to that lineage. While not a true links in the purest sense, Doak's design cleverly integrates the undulations and strategic bunkering reminiscent of courses found along the Scottish coast. Parkland presents a challenging yet fair test, rewarding strategic play over sheer power. It is characterized by its generous fairways, subtly contoured greens, and a thoughtful routing that winds through the natural undulations of the landscape. The prevailing coastal winds demand careful club selection and an ability to shape shots. The course favors players who can control their ball flight and manage the sandy waste areas that often frame the fairways. It is known for its relatively open feel, encouraging an aggressive approach, balanced by the ever-present need for accurate approach shots. The course is maintained to a high standard, ensuring firm and fast conditions year-round. Parkland presents a unique contrast to its sister courses at Legends, offering a more strategic and visually engaging experience, one that’s known to challenge even the most skilled golfers. Parkland's reputation is primarily regional, drawing a loyal following of golfers from the Carolinas and beyond. While it has not hosted major championships, it remains a popular venue for amateur events. Legends Golf and Resort, in general, is known for its large number of visiting golfers who take advantage of package deals for lodging and multiple rounds of golf on a variety of courses. Beyond the golf itself, Legends Golf and Resort is known for its lively 19th hole atmosphere. The Scottish-themed Ailsa Pub, a sprawling, wood-paneled space, is a popular gathering spot for golfers after their rounds, offering a wide selection of beers and traditional pub fare. The pub is adorned with golfing memorabilia and often features live music, making it a central hub for socializing and storytelling.
