The 9-hole "East" course at the The Pearl Golf Links facility in Calabash, North Carolina features 3,401 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 36. Designed by Dan F. Maples, ASGCA, the East golf course opened in 1987.
Played this course in early May 2017. I am adding this to my golf course rotation. It's evident that significant work has been done here. Course was in good shape, greens rolled true. The layout offers a good challenge. A fun round of golf, no doubt.
Horrible! Played Thistle - across the street - yesterday and I felt like I was on the moon today (greens weren't well, very green; tee boxes were dirt; maintenance was horrible). We had booked West and they moved us to East and delayed us 20 minutes. Stacked up the entire time. Just awful. Worse than a heavily-played inner city municipal course (and I've played many). Don't waste a cent.
I played this course as the second in my rotation at the 2010 Golf.com World Am. It was my least favorite of the 4 courses we played. The area has been hammered with heat this summer, so I can't blame the condition of the greens on the staff. The rough was another story. The course is quite narrow and finding the rough here is like adding an automatic penalty stroke. When you do find your ball, it's almost always unplayable. The other hazards seemed well kept and the views on a few holes are quite nice. The remaining holes are a bit mundane. I hear the west course is a little nicer....
