BAREFOOT RESORT AND GOLF
🇺🇸 North Myrtle Beach, SC, USA
Designed by Pete Dye

The Dye Course at Barefoot Resort, carved from the Carolina coastal landscape, is Pete Dye at his most unapologetically penal. A modern design that embraces the spirit of risk-reward, its wide fairways belie the trouble lurking just off the manicured turf – undulating waste bunkers, strategically placed water hazards, and Dye's signature railroad ties framing greens that demand precision. A course that can both thrill and humble, its length favors the long hitter, but its subtle complexities require strategic thinking and a deft touch around the greens.
While not steeped in tournament lore, the Dye Course remains a popular stop for amateur competitions and those seeking a stern but fair test of their golfing mettle in the Myrtle Beach area. Its rugged aesthetic, a deliberate departure from the manicured parkland courses more common in the region, offers a unique experience that distinguishes it from its neighbors.
The Dye Course offers a distinctly modern take, and is not the first golf course that comes to mind when discussing iconic or monumental golf courses, its unapologetic sternness and distinctive Dye hallmarks attracts those seeking a unique challenge.
