About the Renovations at Grande Dunes Resort Club
The Grande Dunes Resort Course has long been regarded as one of Myrtle Beach’s best layouts, and a renovation project in the summer of 2022 has ensured the acclaimed property will retain its place at the top of golf’s most popular market long into the future.
The four-month project included the restoration of the course’s greens and bunkers and a complete renovation of the clubhouse and pro shop, expanding both. Founders Group International, Grande Dunes’ parent company, hired architect John A. Harvey, who worked with Roger Rulewich on the original design and construction of the layout in 2001, to spearhead the on-course work.
Among the highlights of the effort were:
- Grande Dunes, which restored its greens to their original specifications, reclaimed nearly 40,000-square feet of putting surface, an increase of 33 percent.
- The bunkers at Grande Dunes also had their original shape and contours restored, significantly improving their visual appeal.
- Additionally, the installation of new Capillary Concrete bunker liners has dramatically improved the conditioning and playability of the bunkers.
- Grande Dunes collectively expanded its fairways by eight acres, giving players few excuses to miss some of Myrtle Beach’s largest fairways.
- The improvements to the course are complemented by the overhaul of the Grande Dunes clubhouse, which now includes Terrazza 19, a new restaurant, dramatically expanded outdoor seating, and a larger pro shop.
