Whispering Pines Golf Course in Myrtle Beach received designation as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary from Audubon International in 1998, making it the third course in South Carolina to earn the recognition and, by the course's account, still the only one in the Myrtle Beach area to hold it.
Practice facilities include a driving range and practice greens, maintained year-round and used both for warming up before a round and for golf lessons. Pace of play is monitored, with a maximum of four hours and fifteen minutes set for an 18-hole round.
