Shaftesbury Glen Golf & Fish Club

When you play at Shaftesbury Glen Golf Course, a Winged Foot and Augusta National inspired design, it truly delivers a golfer’s dream with its traditional English style consisting of large, rectangular tee boxes, wide open fairways, and oversized, immaculate Bentgrass greens. Shaftesbury has been recognized by the Myrtle Beach Area Golf Owners Association as Golf Course of The Year (2009); by Golf World Magazine as one of the Top 50 Golf Resorts as chosen by its readers (2009), as well as among the Top 22 of South Carolina’s more than 300 golf Courses (2009); and by Golf Digest with a 4-star rating in its “Places To Play” guide (2005) and a nomination for “Best New Public Course In America” (2001). Popular holes at Shaftesbury include No. 1, a 366-yard, par 4 that features a dead-straight fairway crowned by a Tillinghast-esque elevated green with a flashed up bunker on its left front, leaving the shot selection restricted for the approach shot. Shaftesbury’s finishing hole, a 410-yard par 4, requires length more than accuracy. The beautiful backdrop makes playing 18 significant and memorable.
