The Approach Shot

Myrtle Beach

Dunes Golf & Beach Club

Classic coastal / championship

Dunes Club is the course that gives a Myrtle trip credibility. RTJ Sr. built the market's classic anchor, and the "Alligator Alley" stretch around Lake Singleton is still the Grand Strand's most serious old-school test. If the group wants one old-school anchor with real history, start here.
