Eagle Nest features gently rolling terrain, tall pine trees lining the fairways, and Cypress and Willow trees lining the banks. Genn Hamm's design on this course starts off easy. As you play through the course gets progressively more complex until you reach the final three holes. Eagle Nest claims that the final three are considered the 3 toughest holes on the Grand Strand. Their signature hole is the Par 3, 185 yard (blue tee), 18th. Water will be your greatest obstacle.

Eagle Nest has recently undergone new renovations. The course conditions are improving as they work their way back up.
