Myrtle Beach Golf Back on Track After Historic Rainfall
by Video and Pictures Provided by Gordon McCawley for Myrtle Beach Golf Holiday
By Wednesday morning, scores of visiting golfers were strolling the grounds at Grande Dunes Resort Club just as they would on your typical, ideal day for a round of fall golf on the Grand Strand. With temperatures in the low 70s paired with brilliant, clear-blue skies and a light breeze, this course – along with the vast majority of golf courses in the Myrtle Beach area – was back to business as usual.
The scene was a far, far cry from what was happening across the Carolinas for several days prior, where images and aerial video of widespread flooding had dominated the national news cycle.
Yet here was one of scores of area golf courses that was now fully operational, just one day removed from the end of a historic weather event that saw some locations overwhelmed with more than 20 inches of rain.
As of Friday, Oct. 9, nearly 70 Myrtle Beach area golf courses had resumed full operations.
The pictures and video below are remarkable – given the fact that they were taken on Wednesday, Oct. 7. They bear witness to a Myrtle Beach golf scene that has not only proven itself resilient in the face of extraordinary obstacles, but also more than ready to host you for your fall golf getaway.

Course designers have taken a similar approach when it comes to laying out their work. Backload most of their memorable holes, ensuring that the lasting memories aren’t watered down by the bulk of their architecture.
