To old timers, Myrtle Beach is all about laid back family vacations at the beach-lazy days spent strolling in the sand and sultry evenings on the boardwalk with sticky cotton candy and a poket full of quarters for playing skee ball. The only golf anyone played involved windmills and clown obstacles on astro turf-covered miniature golf courses. Boy, has that changed!
Today, Myrtle Beach is all about golf. With over 90 courses along the 70 mile stretch of coast known as the Grand Strand, it may well be the most golf-rich area in the the country. The mild climate allows for nearly year round play and the variety of links ranges from ultra exclusive to bargain basement.
With so many to golf courses, it’s sometimes difficult to choose which ones to play during your visit. Numerous golfing websites offer club reviews and star ratings based on playability, course layout, conditions, scenic beauty and other factors. In addition to the top courses in the area, some also flag the worst Grand Strand golf courses in an effort to keep the entire area from suffering reputation problems caused by just a few.
The best way to get real Myrtle Beach vacation deals is by booking a special package that includes lodging along with carts and greens fees. Sometimes, meals and entertainment are also included and you usually get to choose which courses you wish to play. At under $70 bucks a night for an off-season Stay and Play package, it’s almost cheaper than staying home. So, do some shopping and snooping around before you book your next golf trip to the Myrtle Beach. You’ll be glad you did!
