The course
Greg Norman's design at Barefoot Resort uses only 60 acres of mowable grass across 18 holes, framing each one with sweeping waste areas and native vegetation.
Opened in 2000, the Norman Course looks like something from the desert southwest without the desert. With so little maintained turf, the striking waste areas and natural vegetation define every hole, and several holes run along the scenic Intracoastal Waterway. The site's strong elevations gave Norman a standout piece of property to work with, and he has said the developer spared no expense to make the course the best it can be.
The par 72 layout plays 7,035 yards from the championship tees with a 73.9 rating and 136 slope, dropping to 6,487 from the men's tees and 4,953 from the ladies'. Bermuda greens finish off a course that stands apart from anything else in Myrtle Beach.

★★★★★Fun Course, weather was windy and made it challenging, but I thouroughly enjoyed playing here
★★★★★The tournament went well!

★★★★★Had to play cart path only. Not a good fit for me. Not the fault of the course. I could only finish 15 holes.
★★★Did not get a chance to play due to the rain and it being cart path only. Maybe next time.
★★★★★Course was on very good to excellent condition. Tee boxes, fairways, traps and greens were in terrific shape. Great layout and some holes are sneaky-hard (in a good way).
★★★★★All Barefoot Courses are nice
★★Nothing special here. Pretty much a run-of-the-mill municipal course. Tee boxes are dirt. It could be a much better course with some more $$ put into it.
★★★★★Excellent course. Terrible bar cart service. The server acted like we were imposing upon her. Found this course quite easy.
★★★★★Same comments as Rivers edge
★★★★Fun, and in very good condition. Easy to play and much room to drive the ball.
★★★★★This course surprised us—very good shape
★★★★★Love the layout would recommend it to anyone.
★★★★Good conditions and course was in great shape. Sometimes the "fleecing" by the cart guys gets annoying; they are always hanging out, ready to tackle you and hold you down while another one cleans your clubs which you never asked to be cleaned, and then they expect a tip. Ridiculous. I would have given it a "5" if it weren't for the cart guys.
★★Fairways needed to be mowed. Greens were extremely slow. Would have appreciated knowing there was a breakfast buffet available at the clubhouse.
★★★★good course but we were cart path only for 9 holes. Two of us are in our 70s and too much walking.
★★★Of the four barefoot courses, Norman would rank at the bottom.
★★★★★Played all 4 courses again this year as this was my 40th straight year going to Myrtle.. I love them all they are in immaculate shape fair and fun to play
★★★★★Beautiful course. Tee box selection makes it as challenging as you desire.
