– The Dunes Golf and Beach Club has been named one of Golfweek Magazine’s “Top 100 Classic Courses” in its annual “Golfweek’s Best” rankings. Designed by Robert Trent Jones, The Dunes Golf and Beach Club was ranked No. 94 in 2008, and was one of two South Carolina courses to make the list (Yeamans Hall Club, #40).Golfweek defines a classic course as being built prior to 1960, and rates courses based on criteria that includes the ease and intimacy of routing, integrity of design, quality of feature shaping, natural setting and overall land planning among other categories. The Dunes Course was first named to Golfweek’s list of “100 Best Classic Courses” in 1998 and is the only Myrtle Beach area course to be named among the top 100 each year since 1998. “We have truly made a commitment to be one of the most admired courses in the nation.
The bi-annual list recognizes the state’s top resort, public access and daily-fee courses during odd-numbered years. The Dunes Club was also selected for the panel’s inaugural “Best Courses You Can Play” ranking in 2005. The dunes course honored to be chosen one of the top 25 golf courses in the state of South Carolina.We strive to provide a superior golfing experience to our members and guests of the club and this award confirms our success at creating this atmosphere.” The bi-annual list was again dominated by the Grand Strand, the home of more than half of the honored premier public access facilities.
