Blessed with land
of spellbinding beauty, architect Dan Maples and owner/developer
Larry Young combined their considerable talents to create a design
that absolutely demands precise shotmaking. Marsh Harbour's unique
setting is a rare combination of elevated ground skirted by low-lying
marsh adjacent to the Intracoastal Waterway. Lush, indigenous vegetation
outlines the teeing and landing areas, and wildlife of virtually
every species abounds. Marsh Harbour, a par-71, opened in March 1980
and has become one of the most renowned courses in the Southeast
Ranked as one of the "25 Best Public Courses in America" by Golf
Digest, Marsh Harbour's famed 17th hole has been recognized as "the
most beautiful and exciting hole on the Grand Strand," though the
same could be said of practically every hole on this "must play" golf
course.
