Architect Clyde Johnston brings back the traditional look. You will think of Winged Foot as you play the newest of Myrtle Beach’s championship courses. Recently named as the “2009 Myrtle Beach Golf Course of the Year” and “#34 Resort Course in the United States” by Golf World Magazine, Shaftesbury is a mesmerizing blend of elevatied A-12 Bent
greens, picture-perfect bunkers, wide-flowing fairways, tantalizing par 3’s and awesone par 5’s. From the stone-gated entrance to the Olde English clubhouse on the scenic Waccamaw River, this 18-hole championship English inspired parkland course should be on your must-play list…just 10 minutes from Restaurant Row via the new Highway 22. Nominated for ‘Best New Public Course in America’ by Golf Digest.
