The Dunes Golf and Beach Club was incorporated in May of 1948. A little-known architect named Robert Trent Jones was commissioned to design the layout and 70 years later, there is no doubt that Robert Trent Jones is regarded as one of the all-time greatest golf course architects ever to have touched the earth.
Now after seven decades of history and tradition, the Dunes Golf and Beach Club stands as a “Top 100 Golf Course” in virtually every major magazine ranking. The Club has played host to many PGA Tours, Senior PGA Tours, USGA Championships, Women’s, Amateur, National, Collegiate, and State events.
The course has seen some minor renovations throughout the years but has retained the original essence of the design, proving that the excellence of the layout would stand up to the numerous industry changes over the decades. The Dunes Club currently has over 800 members and is semi-private. However, the members have allowed limited access to the tee sheets for a few fortunate guests wishing to experience this Southern gem.
