The course isn't great. The layout is simple. But, man, how I wish this course was across the street from my house.
- Location. Scenery. The appeal of this course is that you're an internet distance's throw from the Great Pee Dee River. This is one of the best backdrop's for any course I've ever played.
- As for the course itself, it's a simple, short par 3 layout. Plenty of birdie and ace runs. There is a challenge here that creates an extra level of difficulty. That's the winds blowing off the water. Had one gust blow my soft toss completely off line. Lesson learned.
- Great course for beginners, families, and those looking for a relaxing round. This is a great course to introduce new players to the game.
- Based on the tee signs, holes range in length from 135 to 275 feet. Online and on the apps, you'll see different distances.
- Course does a good job using the trees as obstacles. Most holes may only have one or two trees. They just so happen to be right in the way of the line you want to throw (said through gritted teeth). There's a small marshy, wetland area to the left of the #7's fairway that presents the only risk of struggling to retrieve a disc.
- Course is surprisingly easy to navigate. Holes are all clustered together. After finding the first tee, it's easy following the flow. If not, you can always use the online map for assistance.
- Good course for practice. Baskets aren't in the best of shape, but are more than adequate for what's needed here.

Hole length issue needs to be addressed. Each hole has a single tee and a single basket. Yet there are three hole lengths listed for each hole on this site. One is from the tee sign; two are from the scorecard. Hole #3, for example has lengths of 160, 185 and 222 feet. You play the hole at 185 feet when it's actually 222, well sir, you just played yourself out of a birdie.
- As has been mentioned already, tee sign for #1 was missing completely. On other holes, the signs are laying on the ground. I'm assuming fixing tee signs after a tropical storm or hurricane isn't the highest priority.
- The layout, based upon the hole numbers and UDisc map varies slightly from the online map listed on this site. The only difference is #5 & 7. Based on the tee signs, #7 is the hole to the far side of the park, the one with water in play. The map listed here has that as #5.
- I suspect the course may flood easily and can take time to dry out at times. For locals, that's not an issue. For out of towners, may be an annoyance if it's your one chance to play.
- For the pickiest of nitpicks: holes #8 & 9 are the two easiest on the course. For those who expect courses to end o n a high note, you won't end on a bang here. Sorry to disappoint.

East Bay is a fun, simple design. I enjoyed the 15 minutes it took to play. I suspect many will.
- Other than #4, 7 & 8, the other six holes all felt virtually the same. Sure, you may have to start your throw a little further left or right to make it around a tree, but you can throw the same shot on every hole. #4 & 8 are more wide open, and #7 has the 'water' obstacle and a little more length.
- As stated above, the breeze off the bay will give the course its strongest punch. The couple stronger gusts, maybe 10 - 15 mph, did start impacting shots. On a really breezy day, it would be fun navigating 30+ mph winds and seeing if it's a struggle to shoot par.
- Course can be played with only a couple discs. #7 was the only hole I needed something with a little more speed as I was trying to throw across the wind.
- I'd surmise that many of us would want this to be the course across the street from our homes. Having water, and a disc golf course, as our front yards is a good thing.
- You're 45 minutes to the two 18-holers in Myrtle Beach and Sewee Outpost near Charleston. There are a couple nine-holers closer than that. If you're nearby, it's worth your time to stop by for a quick nine or 18.

East Bay Park sits about 20 miles south of Murrells Inlet . Just inside of Georgetown . The park was semi crowded with lunch eaters and parents with kids . There was a Port O Let near the tennis courts .
The Equipment - The tee pads are cement , smaller but new . The signs are blue edged with hole # , par and distance . The baskets are numbered Chainstars and look pretty new . There is tape on the basket rungs to point you to the next tee . I don't know why most parks don't use this idea .It really helps with navigation . There is a shelter in the middle of this park , which is nice on a hot day when you need a break .
The landscape - The park and course were mowed and branches trimmed when I was here . The park was clean . There is a small bridge near the number one basket that you might use if the course is soggy in spots . This course is true park-style . There are some trees to contend with more in the center of the course , and there is a marsh that you will have to throw near or over on I think #7 .( Don't land in it . It's really wet . Not that I would know mind you , A local might have told me ) . The total acreage of this course is very small . It sits between 3 roads and the rest of the park .This course will be wet during a good rain or the water rises on the bay .
Appearance/Atmosphere - The park is nice , and the course , although small looks okay . What makes the appearance shine here is the south end showing the bay . I bet this course looks incredible at sunrise or sunset .
The Highlights - Not much in the way of highlights here . All of your throws are going to be straight ahead and short .. You might have to contend with a few trees on some holes but you won't have to be creative .
No signature hole , but my favorite one to throw was #7 , 275' over a marsh .with 4' high plant life in abundance in it .
Disc Risk - As long as you avoid the marsh ( I found a disc in it ) , the rest of the park will keep your risk low . No overgrowth anywhere but there .
The Time - It took me 25 minutes to play this course , and I had to look for a disc . A group of 4 will get through this in 45-50 minutes .
This is a tight fitting course , but if you have it all to yourself like I did on a Thursday midafternoon , you have no worries . I can see kids or newbies getting their first ace on this course . If not , they will still grab a load of deuces .

#1 Alligators - If you read the front page of Disc Golf Review , it says that alligators like to sun themselves in the ditches of the course . From my testimonial that I had an alligator come up at me on land when I was putting at Sunset Park In Sea Breeze Florida , An alligator sleeping or not will scare the Bejesus out of you . Stay aware .
#2 Safety - only a concern if multiples are playing here at the same time . Fairways can run close together and the wind coming off the bay can alter and magnetize a disc to your cranium .
#3 Navigation - Spotty . You can see all 9 baskets in many spots in the park Print the map and eliminate . The hole numbers aren't all correct on the map .
#4 Challenge - Flat , missing tight lanes because of a lack of trees , most holes are straight ahead . the total distance of the course is under 2000' . Did I miss anything ?
#5 Out of the way - Georgetown needed this course . It is a pretty long way going south to Sewee Outpost , and Warrior Run is 17 miles north . But the course is kind of a distance for anyone else to play a 9 hole course except for the locals .
#6 Other Tees , Please ? - I saw no second set of tees to make this an 18 hole course when I played . Maybe gators where sunning themselves on those tees while I was playing .That said , the con is that it is only 9 holes .
Because of the water , bugs can be bad when its hot . You may want to spray before you play during the summer .

I don't know how much tourism Georgetown has during the year , but a disc golf course can give both the locals and the vacationers something to do other than going to the beach 7 straight days .The city will get double or triple their investment back when out of town players stop here to play , then eat lunch , fill the gas tank , maybe even check out the whole city . I bet this course is captivating-looking at sunset over the bay . I only wish I had the time to see the city and take it all in .
My Recommendation - Great intro course , and fun for the family and 1 discers , + dates . It's short and fast . Only putting and approach practice for the experienced . The course is out of the way and near uncollectable for baggers , and travelers unless staying in the Georgetown area . If in the area take 20 + minutes and play the course and see Georgetown , but don't make a special trip . The course is not quite there , yet .

*Easy Ace Race course with short distances.
*Greens are very well kept.
*Baskets are in good shape.
*Great course for beginners to learn the basics.

*Navigation is very poor, unless you have a map or someone in the group who has played this..Good luck.
*Basket are in good shape, however they are the cheap portable style with less chains causing alot of spit-outs.
*Due to being the low-country, when it rains this course will flood.
*Horrible bugs during the hot summer months.

This is a course that has alot of potential, however in it's current state it is just passable imo. A great place to teach drives with it's short holes. However with little buffer zones between holes and lack of variety of distances, this course is not worth a drive. If you are in the area, then I would play it.

This course has one element that makes it extremely challenging--the wind.

By playing your own tee pads, you can make it a more interesting course. I used the concrete from the playground in the west corner of the park as the tee for #2 and #4. For #5, I used the road behind the tee (East Bay Dr). For #8, I used the east corner of the park (as far northeast as I could go before I hit the swampy bits).

Baskets suck.

I would like to have seen more pins extremely close to trees, protecting them.

And, of course, mosquitoes suck.

When I played, many of the vinyl tee location signs where either gone or blown to various parts of the course.

This is the worst course I've ever played... But what matters more is that Georgetown has a course! I grew up in tha G-Funk, but didn't start playing DG until I moved to California. I was shocked when I came home and visited my mom and she told me there was a disc golf course in Georgetown. It barely passes as a "course", but still.

Anybody that complains about this course does not understand how awesome it is that Georgetown has a course.

short course fantastic for beginners
Well maintained
Signs at every tee

They really should mark the baskets so you know which one your throwing to. I would also like to see some kind of markers even if it's a flag to show where the tee pad should be
