Blackmoor Golf Club is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.
The Blackmoor Golf Course first opened for play in 1990. The course was designed by Gary Player.
This course was built on the historic Longwood Plantation, an antebellum rice plantation on Waccamaw River. The course features lakes, moss-draped oaks, pines, and cypress. Gary Player took advantage of the natural terrain and vistas with its undulations when designing this course. In 2001 Blackmoor Golf Course was named the Myrtle Beach Golf Course of the Year. In 2003 extensive renovations to the greens, bunkers, and clubhouse as well as tree removal were made.
Blackmoor is narrow in some areas and out of bounds, water hazards and trees can come into play. The best approach to scoring on this course is keeping your tee shots in play. If you consistently are in between the tree lines off the tee, then the golf course sets up very well for you. So lay back off the driver. Play for accuracy, and you will have a distinct advantage over everyone else in your group. Remember, the adage "the woods are full of big hitters!"
