I have played several courses at Myrtle beach and Myrtle Beach National
(Arnold Palmers collection of courses) although one of the most expensive
is by far the best one Ive golfed (not only there, but anywhere Ive been). |

| A couple of notes about Myrtle beach will make your time much more
enjoyable;
1) You get what you pay for when it comes to golf courses...the cheap
ones really are not worth the trip unless you indeed cannot golf where you
live.
2) Make your reservations early in your vacation, and try to get early
tee times as most courses have $10.00-15.00 replay prices (the replay
price being the cost to play an additional 18 holes of golf after you have
completed one round).
3) Expect to pay $60-$110.00 per course (for a cart and a greens fee)
per person every day of the trip you want to golf. There are cheaper
courses available, but having golfed several, I would not recommend going
that route (at least not without going at least once to Myrtle Beach
National or a like golf club). |

I will be traveling to South Carolina the first week of December. I have
not been to Myrtle Beach but have heard great things and wish to take
advantage of a golf package for my girlfriend and I. I sent away for the
Myrtle Beach Golf Vacation Planner (advertised in October Golf Magazine).
We are thinking about 4 days-- where would you suggest for first timers,
(14 and 30 handicappers). Also, we are from Los Angeles who have never
been to the south east. Any suggestions for sight seeing? I have heard
Atlanta is a must see if I am any where close. If you had 9 days to
visit with 4 days set aside for golfing and a rental car, where would you
recommend going? Thanks, Ed. |
| You will find Myrtle Beach National to be a notch below those two but
a good value. There are two courses at Burning Ridge and Myrtlewood.
Willbrook Plantation and the Tradition are practically side by side
and are fine courses.. |
