The course

What Myrtle Beach National - Kings North plays like.

Designed by the legendary Arnold Palmer, Kings North at Myrtle Beach National opened in 1973 and underwent a significant redesign in 1996. The course features dramatic water hazards and strategic bunkering, with the iconic par 5 sixth hole, "The Gambler," offering a risk and reward island fairway. Lush Bermuda grass fairways and greens ensure excellent conditioning, making it suitable for golfers seeking a challenging yet enjoyable round.

Reviews

4.4 out of 5 from 901 golfers.

Left by people who booked this tee time through us and played it.

Course was great and challenging.

Corey, Carlisle

Great layout. Lies thin due to drought. We rate it 5/5 and will be back again. This was our third time in 3 years.

Macy, Venice

Didn't really care for this course. There was way too much sand for a fun round of golf. Very busy with three courses and a bit confusing on the crossover.

Susan, Lutherville

Truly unique and entertaining course

Parikh, Chicago

Unable to play. Had to cancel

Younglove, Bowling Green

great condition, even in a drought.

David, Arlington

Never disappointed playing here.

Chris, Glen Arm

Fairways were lush; lots of traps. Greens were extremely slow and frustrating to put. Clubhouse was old; had to purchase ball which I feel should come with a premium course. I was somewhat disappointed from experience 15 years ago.

Cynthia, Palm City

Great course, staff super friendly and helpful however pace of play could have been slightly faster.

Micah, Apopka

Got rained out. Will play next year

Cornelius , Franklin

Beautiful. Expensive, but worth it

Massato, Washington

Kings North was in excellent condition. The greens were hard and fast. The traps were difficult for me as I think I saw every one of them. Lots of water for added excitement. Great course, we had a ball.

Wheeler, Mystic

Took 5 hours and 5:15 mins for this round. Too Long!!

Marvin, Salem

Beautiful course. Well maintained

Leanne, Etobicoke

Course is terrible condition

Azlant, Stow

Renovations completed last fall have really improved kings north. Loved it.

Dave, Spring City

Amazing course. Love the restore

Scott, Hickory

as all ways great course and excellent course conditions I would highly recommend to anyone

Michael, Rochchester

Good course, well located and friendly staff.

Michael, Schenectady

this course was in pristine condition, and organization/pace of play was excellent. an easy favorite of the group.

Ryan, Arlington

In great condition, new greens, staff were very helpful.

McCullough, Keswick

Excellent choice of courses to start our golf trip. Thank you Dan Pellecchia (GolfTrek) for that. The course was in very good shape and we loved the layout. Staff were friendly and professional. We would definitely play here again.

Daniel, Avalon

Loved the course! It was a pretty forgiving course …well except for the Gambler!! The staff were so friendly. Would definitely play it again

Kim, Monte Vista

Great course, exceptional conditions, greens were a bit slow on the day I was there.

jesse, windham

Exceptional condition, amazing layout,

Charlie, Olathe

Course is absolutely a gem. I loved golfing here. Despite the rain it was absolutely amazing course. Course staff were great.

Someone, Cottonwood heights

Played it many times. Greens rock hard and need to mature.. design of course and scenery is great but wasn't happy with the new greens. Smooth just rock hard and not receptive.

Andrew, Toronto

Hard to hold any greens i liked TPC more but definitely would play again

Koch , Clinto

I would have to say this is my new favorite Myrtle Beach golf course. Great condition … fun but difficult. Not a course for beginners.

William, Wheeling

Awesome course, would play there again in a heartbeat...

Guy, Elizabethtown

The course was in great shape

Christiansen, Grimsby

The best Myrtle Beach has to offer.

Richard, Mount Uniacke

Awesome track, friendly staff

Joseph, Springboro

Staff was great. Really nice course. Well maintained and great layout. Best course we played all week.

John, Oxford

Awesome course layout even with a lot of water. Greens were great. Conditions were suberp.

Andre, Atlanta

Nice course but tough conditions due to cart path only. Only negative was that after waiting on every hole, group behind us fell a little bit behind on #17 and Marshall told them they had to speed up because they were approaching a 6 hour round. Rathe rude

Ken, Salisbury

very challenging course, but unfortunately, it was "out of our league " still had fun playing it.

James, Crozet

Great condition especially the greens.

Barry, Myrtle Beach

Awesome track!!

Dan, Blackstone

Really liked this course. Was difficult at first due to the smoke but that eventually burnt off. Good layout and nice challenge.

Leanne, Etobicoke

In great shape

David, Belford

Did not play how can I rate!

Gary, Middletown

Did not play due to fire smoke.

Scott, Kensington

My favorite course

Ivan, Meruden

One of my favorite courses. It’s always in great condition and the greens are true to feel.

Herman, Long Beach

excellent track, glad we didn't get rained out again.

David, Woonsocket

Outstanding layout and facility. In excellent condition. Best turf conditions I have played in MB in years.

Bart, Aiken

Great course, but the wind was extreme and made play difficult.

Shoffstall , Hamburg

Very slow back nine.

Smith, East Aurora

Great conditions and really fun and challenging layout

Watson, Lisbon

Overall, the course was very good. When the back nine is completed with the revitalization, it should be really good. Overall a really good experience and tough course with all of the water. I gave the score of 4 but could be 4.5. Once again, the reason it is not a five is the price point. High prices bring lofty expectations. Myrtle Beach has become a pricey destination for golf - relevant to value - compared to some other areas in the United States.

Joseph, Bradenton

Fabulous course loved the layout and design. Would definitely come back to play afain

Kaplan, Berkley

Great shape and friendly staff

Michael, Blaine

Great course great shape

Dino, Florissant

Great course, fun layout. Great shape.

Mark, Leesville

Excellent course. Excellent experience.

Byron, Canton

More user friendly

Tomas, Albany

Wonderful track. Great shape. Fun to play. Excellent staff.

James

For the amount of money they charge, they could have at least cut the greens.

James, Markham

Looks like King's North has been toughened up a bit? Had the best Greens of the trip.

Robert, New Boston

Great first course to play. Challenging.Outside staff super.

Dolan, Scottsdale

The icing on the cake. A must play course in Myrtle Beach

Rick, Mount Uniacke

Have played this course a lot on past trips. It never disappoints. Always in excellent condition.

David, Orlando

Some work had been done to course. Greens were very firm and I was not informed of the work as at least one tee box was still being finished.

Keith, Belle

not as pretty as use to to be but greens were in good shape

Ernest

Very much enjoyed this course.

James, Niagara Falls

This course will be great again when all the revisions are completed

Stark, Bridgeville

Great course

John, Concord twp

Some tee boxes had inch long grass. A majority of the rough was long with some grass 3 to 4 inches high where it was not designed to be. Lack of mowing.

Doug, LANCASTER

I was a little disappointed. Not in the best of shape

Cuz, Arnold

Lots of water.

Bradford, Jacksonville

Not as good as in past

They obviously get a lot of rounds played here but course was challenging and in decent condition.

The Gambler hole is a highlight.

Mike, Brampton

Staff was friendly

Pretty trek and gettable

Ronald, Brampton

great course, guys in the pro shop were very friendly and helpful. would definitely play it again.

Blake, Kenner

Good course. Slow pace of play. Wedged between a league.

Amy, South Plain Field

Fantastic facility. Pace of play a bit slower than expected. Conditions as expected

James

Golf factory. Dated.

Robert , Old Orchard Beach

Amazing layout with great vistas. In the bunker? Free drops! Iconic course some great memorabilia in the club house and I heard a rumour of a refresh next year.

Robert, Kitchener

Needs a renovation

David , Waterford

seems to be some lack of communication between reservations where no addresses at any properties which was a little irritating because we had to research each golf course to find their location, other than that everything was very good, to excellent

Dale, north ridgeville

Did not play. Too cold for me.

Bruce, Providence Forge

Always best course yet too many workers on 18th hole interfering with play. No consideration for the player’s presence. Totally uncalled for.

Brian, Buffalo

Needs work. Greens are in need of some TLC. EVERYONE had their hand out for a tip before service was rendered. Speed of play was excellent. A few groups of drunks with loud music; would be nice if there was a Marshall. Overall would play again, better courses out there for the same money.

jeffrey

Only because it was my worst round of the weekend!

Mark, Dunstable

Course is real nice, enjoyed it. I would say it needs to be upgraded to equal the prices charged.

Phil

They did not have us listed as getting the lunch and 2 beers promotion, even though Wizard did the day prior. But they gave it to us after I showed them an email that listed it. They then sorted it out with GolfTrek and made sure we got it at Pine Lakes too.

Joseph, Wakefield

Greens were burnt out. Otherwise nice.

Patrick , Blythewood

tough course

Robert, North Wales

The course layout was fun, but the course was in horrible shape compared to the others.

Sawyer, Lincoln

Course conditions weren’t up to standards we were used to from previous years. King’s North is always a fun round regardless.

Matthew, Salem

bad fairways bad greens

Denzil, Cleveland

Very challenging course. Beautiful design. Back nine fairways were a bit dry but overall fabulous course!

Dennis, Nepean

Ridiculosuly good golf coures - overbooked tee sheet and overwhelmed starter desk - had a 40 minute delay for a 1pm tee time because it was so overbooked - The course itself was worth the delay, so many epic holes, the course design was extremely fun, as well as beautiful

Alex, Lakeland

To many people! Very long with the wait on every shot.

Mike, Pleasantville

Always enjoyable.

Mike, Ellicott city

I really enjoyed this course.

Patrick, Vancouver

Kings North is a great course, the problem was the wait times, it seemed overbooked and the round took forever.

Jamie, Victoria

Very nice layout and unique holes that you don't see often elsewhere.

Andrew, Bedford

Bunkers need work

Les, Limdsay

Interesting holes with some challenges

Chris, Dartmouth

Too long for older seniors, even when playing from the senior tees.

John, Manakin Sabot

Course was not in good condition, especially the tee boxes.

David, Smyrna

Awesome course. The best we played on the weekend.

CHRISTOPHER, Twinsburg

Course was not in good condition

Jack, Blacksburg

Very nice course, great food

Robert, Haverhill

Super golf course

rain did not play

Jeffrey, Sidney

Cart paths were a little iffy in places, otherwise great (if difficult for our abilities.)

james, Norfolk

excellent course in very good shape

ROBERT, Waterford Township

Lack of signage and markers.

Dugald, Quispamsis

Nice course more suited for accurate golfers. Easily find trouble

Doug, Chance harbour

This course was not in the best condition. Rough's were practically unplayable.

Edward, Thornhill

Great course, just too many golfers on course and took 6 hours to golf 18 holes.

Jack, Brampton

Most of these courses were in rough shape, one really bad - all sand and one was nice - I forget which ?Avocet maybe.

Marc, Guelph

Excellent course

Jeff, Newark

I would not go back, the pace of play was horrible and this was our most expensive round. The West course was better in my opinion.

John, Brampton

Course was in excellent condition. We found it challenging. The staff was very good both inside and out.

Diane, Pembroke

CONDITIONS GREAT BUT IT'S A GOLF FACTORY, SUPER SLOW HAD TO LEAVE AFTER 13 HOLES AFTER 4:45 HRS WAS ON PACE FOR 6 HR ROUND, WOULD HAVE MISSED SECOND TEE TIME WE HAD THAT DAY, MBN DID GIVE US A RAINCHECK FOR 9 HOLES

Tom, Oneonta

great course just to tough for me

Gar, Simcoe

Great layout, conditions weren't the best, fairways in sections were spotty.

Dan, Kitchener

Very challenging course. Nice set up. We liked the cart paths that were made of firm ground, easy to play from.

Dean, Appleton

Overall very good. Condition of the course not the best...but good.

Dennis, Brownstown

Great and fun golf course but with the three courses there it was really busy and it was even hard to get a table for lunch. Not very friendly staff

Steve, Courtice

Another great course,,, weather was cool but warmed up by the end of round...

Brian, Ava

Really nice. I'd play this again.

Dean , York

We loved the golf course. Very busy there but staff was very friendly.

well maintained, friendly staff. loved the course.

Harry , Ottawa

Awesome course. Excellent condition for this time of year. Would play again. Want to play the other courses there as well.

William, London

Great course and nice staff

Brian, Penticton

Fun course to play. Always gamble at the Gambler as playing safe still leaves an approach over water!

Konrad , Ottawa

Fun course to play. Might as well gamble on the Gambler, playing safe still requires an approach over water

Konrad , Ottawa

super fun course to play. the perfect yardage for me and very challenging.

Chris, Dorchester

Same à preseivkwict + some tee box need réparation there all sans and no grass

Alain, Varennes

beautiful course, gets the extra attention that south creek lacks.

Andy, Watertown

Amazing track my favorite of the three

Ray, Broad Brook

Spectacular course in phenomenal shape. Loved it.

Martin, STUART

Always a staple.

Vladimir, Rochester

best course!

Kodie, North York

Nice layout of course. Very nice and consistent greens.

James, Homewood

bag drop and cart loading are a circus

william, lockport

Always love playing this course

Thomas, Albuquerque

Priciest course but thought it was pretty cheap of them to require that tokens be purchased to use the driving range although I understand that with 54 holes the range would be used extensively. Course was in excellent condition compared to the other 4 premium courses we played during our trip.

Howard, Beaconsfield

great golf, friendly staff. not too crowded on weekday I played.

Ryan, Jonesboro

Par 3s are too short. Very obvious this is a golf mill. Want as many golfers on course as possible. Disgusting restaurant. Garbage over flowing in cans and in tables.

Douglas, Mars

A very close 2nd to World Tour

Tom , Calgary

Grass was bare in spots

Andrew, Palatine

Loved this course.

Michael, Brookfield

Great course, in great shape. A great way to end our trip.

Great course would play over and over.

Gary, Maplewood

Incredible course . The greens were amazing and the stunning holes. A must play if you’re down here

Joseph , East setauket

I was shocked at all the golfers waiting for carts at the start. We had no problem getting off the tees on time. They did a great job moving that many golfer's around. Course was also in great shape.

Richard, Taylor

One of nicest course conditions we played.

Kenneth, Heathrow

Great facility and a nice challenge

David, Tinley Park

didnt pay to play with strangers the added player and ruined our day

Kenny, Swannanoa

Above average

Joe, Spotswood

Somewhat disappointed with the greens and tee boxes they were over seeded as we played. Still a beautiful course

Rick, Washington

Fun, nice course. Well kept. Difficult, but not impossible. Pace of play was good. I really enjoyed this as our opening round.

Joseph, Buford

Tuff course. But enjoyed it.

Danny, Murfreesboro

Put a fifth player with our foursome. Waited 15 minutes while workers mowed a par 3 green.

C W, Alcoa

Always a fun layout, requires you to think about the shots you are hitting. We played White tees - about 5800 - par 3's were very short, other holes were very long. Conditions were good, service good. I thought the greens were slow - course maint guy said they were at 10.5

David, Roswell

Only negative is this place took a few of my golf balls! lol

Kenneth, Sterling Heights

maybe 4 1/2 Bermuda grass in rough tough reserving 5 starts for Dunes, Caledonia, maybe a couple of others

Peter, Hillsborough

Still a Top Course in the area to Play. This was my 18th time playing the Noth Course.

Louis, Lancaster

Wish we had the back nine dry...but it rained...But great course!

Kevin, Simpsonville

Beautiful fairways

Frank, Palatka

Beautiful course. One comment, sweet tea tasted like the Nestea carbonated kind. I much prefer fresh brewed sweet tea. Other than that, everything was great.

Brandon, Leesville

Fantastic course and definitely one to conclude on any trip to MB

Marcus, Flanders

I understand you havent got a lot of rain but then water more. We were single digit handicappers taking relief in the fairway just to find grass

Jeff, Sparta

5 very nice enjoyed ideas well

Debra, Hinesville

Always been my favorite course to play!

Robert, FORT MYERS

We've played Kings North every year for 9 years. The conditions are seeming to get a little bit worse each year. Still a good course, but not sure it's quite "top tier" anymore...think they are overcharging.

Brian, Andover

food service in the restaurant is way too slow - food good, but get it out faster. Good course.

David, Waxhaw

Fun course. Great shape. Will play again next year

RICK, Vine Grove

Least impressive of the courses I played. I like the layout, but was not in good shape.

Eddie, Brandenburg

Another of the finer courses in Myrtle Beach.

Bill, Brook Park

great course, best of the one's we played this year.

Joe, Canonsburg

Good shape but not the most challenging.

Conditions have been better in the past

Steve, New Hope

Awesome layout great conditions and exceptional drinks/staff/accommodations

CHRISTOPHER, CORAM

No complaints. We will be back.

Ryan, Burnham

Awesome course. The "Gambler" hole was really challenging and fun to play. Hope to play there again someday.

Ryan , Mckeesport

Great layout of this course. Much harder with alot of water and 42 bunkers on the 18th hole!

Matthew, Maple Shade

This course was awesome! The facility, the scenery and the course were all excellent! Will definitely play again.

Average course.

Things worked fine here. I think the course thinks they are better than they are.

Preston, Richmond

Wet but was able to drive the course

Randy, Shippensburg

Great shape, great layout, but greens could be a little faster.

John, Zelienople

Fun course. Very difficult from time to time. Play was quick and the staff was great

Rick, NEW SMYRNA BEACH

The course was well maintained. Too bad we had to ride carts only on the cart paths. I had a difficult time on some spots in the course due to a recent flare up if gout (arthritis). Hitting out of the bunkers was difficult for me.

Steven, Seagoville

Cool layout greens slower but service outstanding !

jeffrey, galena

Great course. I'd love to play it again.

Jim, Concord

little dated but still a good course

Robert, Concord

Had been verticut recently so the roll of the greens was not as true, but good course

Roger, North Canton

Same as Legends; recent aeration and totally unputtable.

Tim, Chicago

Starting to slack on maintenance. Cart path only always sucks. Probably will drop this course.

Rick, Vine Grove

The rain cleared and we were able to play this amazing course, plush and very green. It really is a must play in Myrtle Beach.

Steve, Lima

Good course but not top tier

Gary, West Orange

Love this course, but it did not seem quite as pristine as 10 years ago. Still very nice fairways and greens and in pretty good shape.

Great course especially the price

Tim, Latham
