  • Dunes Golf and Beach Club to Receive New Greens, A Few More Yards Over Summer 2013

    Posted on 05/08

    This summer will be a bit quieter than usual around the Dunes Golf and Beach Club. Glasses will still clink outside on the patio, by the pool and in the dining room and bar areas of the clubhouse. The wind will still rustle the trees and the ocean will send waved up and down the beach. But for June, July and much of August, the golf course will be silent except for the sounds of machinery that will be elevating the Dunes to new heights in preparation for its hosting the 2014 PGA Professional National Championship next June. - Read More

  • Savvy Myrtle Beach Visitors Trust Their Golf Club-Shipping Needs To FedEx

    Posted on 04/15

    You’ve probably seen the memorable commercials by now. Three panicky employees hurl their golf clubs across a hotel lobby to avoid them being seen by their boss. A satanic-looking rock band’s manager complains that their lugging their golf bags through the airport tarnishes their evil image. Mark Steffenhagen insists that the beverage he has named after himself, iced tea and lemonade, is completely different from an Arnold Palmer, which is lemonade and iced tea. All three ads serve to tell the audience that FedEx offers easy golf club-shipping services for the traveling golfer. - Read More

  • Myrtle Beach International Airport Receives Welcome Upgrade

  • Top Myrtle Beach Golf Amenities

    Posted on 04/09

    Golf is great. Just you and nature: 18 holes, some sand, maybe a few water hazards, your clubs and the ball (hopefully you won’t need too many to play those 18 holes!). But sometimes you want a little something extra to spice up the experience. With 100 golf courses in the Myrtle Beach area and the resulting stiff competition, many facilities have interesting amenities aimed at adding to the experience of playing around at their courses.

  • Springtime Brings Excellent Conditions to Myrtle Beach Golf Courses

    Posted on 03/21

    Springtime in Myrtle Beach is an unparalleled time of year for warm weather seekers who love golf. March, April and May boast average daily high temperatures of 64, 72 and 79 degrees, with April being the second-driest month of the year, with only 2.51 average inches of precipitation. This combination of warm temperatures and moderate rain wakes the Bermuda grass that covers the more than 100 area courses from its cold-weather slumber. Greens, fairways and roughs outgrow their overseeded rye grass or paint and are able to be cut to pleasingly low height daily as heat and moisture dictate. Flowers bloom. Fountains spout jets of water. Beverage cart drivers rev up their engines in earnest. Golf blossoms again. - Read More

  • Meadowlands Golf Club: Thumbs Up Down on the Farm

    Posted on 10/04

    When many people think of golf in Myrtle Beach, they tend to picture a large, fairly homogenous group of golf courses: water and wetlands everywhere, lots of sand, little to no movement in the land. And for some courses, that’s more or less true. Meadowlands Golf Club, though, is not one of them. - Read More

  • Long Bay Club: The Golden Bear’s Northern Gateway to the Grand Strand

    Posted on 10/04

    The 1980s marked a time of explosion in the golf world, with hundreds of new courses opening every year. Perhaps nowhere was this truer than golf in Myrtle Beach, where the complement of courses more than doubled in that decade. It was in that decade that the Golden Bear left his mark on the region, designing two courses nearly simultaneously that sit roughly 44 miles apart but close kin in visuals, shot values and quality: Pawleys Plantation Golf and Country Club in the south and Long Bay Club in the north. - Read More

  • Blackmoor—Doglegs and Delight

    Posted on 09/05

    Blackmoor Golf Club opened in 1990 on the site of the former Longwood Plantation, 25 minutes from Myrtle Beach, close by the scenic Waccamaw River. Its holes wind through forest that one might think almost medieval-looking at times. It is fitting, then, that Blackmoor was designed by golf’s Black Knight, Gary Player. - Read More

  • River Club Holds Sway on the South End of the Grand Strand

    Posted on 08/27

    The quieter, more relaxed southern part of the regional Myrtle Beach golf mecca known as the Grand Strand has perhaps the highest concentration of very, very good courses that run the gamut of playability and challenge. From the epic battle that Pawleys Plantation invites to the gentleness of Tradition Club, there is a course for every level of player. - Read More

  • Key West Grill, Experience the Flavor of the Keys

    Posted on 08/16

    Key West Grill in Myrtle Beach: A place of for pleasure, pirates and plates meant to please Key West Grill is odd in a good way. Its peculiarities are evident almost immediately. As you approach the restaurant, at 1214 Celebrity Circle at Broadway at the Beach in Myrtle Beach, you can see a pirate looking down at you if you are looking up. - Read More

  • Bookends Frame Solid Golf At Willbrook

    Posted on 05/21

    Many Grand Strand golf courses are lauded for having strong closing holes. Willbrook’s reachable par 5 18th, with its green backing up to a tributary of the Waccamaw River, is one such hole. But particularly formidable opening holes are a relative rarity, as most architects prefer to ease players into the round. - Read More

  • Stiff Competition Among Grand Strand’s Best Two-Shotters

    Posted on 05/03

    The vast majority of golf holes that have ever been built are par 4s. They are the standard form of challenge on most golf courses. As such, they come in so many different lengths and shapes that even the most well-traveled golf nut is hard-pressed to think of two with more than a passing mutual resemblance. This abundance breeds competition, too, making the task of trying to determine the ten “best” par 4s in any given area—to say nothing of the golf hub that is Myrtle Beach—an arduous one. As with the list of par 5s from a few weeks ago, this list of par 4 is not meant to be exhaustive or final. It is more of a tour of some of the diverse palette of holes draped across the Grand Strand. Here are ten great par 4s, arranged in ascending order of back tee length. - Read More

  • Ten Of The Best Par 5 Golf Holes On The Grand Strand

    Posted on 04/06

    The Myrtle Beach golf scene enjoys such great variety that debates rage constantly about which courses or holes are “the best.” Those debates are never settled—never will be—because the styles of Myrtle Beach’s 100-plus courses vary so much that it comes down to personal preference.  If you’re a Golden Bearophile, Long Bay and Pawleys Plantation are going to be centerpieces of your every visit.  If you’re a Fazioholic, you’ll hit up TPC Myrtle Beach and the Fazio Course at Barefoot Resort and you may even have your home course pro try and arrange a round for you at the private Wachesaw Plantation when you visit. - Read More

  • Waccamaw Golf Trail: The South Strand’s ‘Birdie Dozen’ Part One of Two

    Posted on 03/29

    Being that the Grand Strand is such a large expanse of coastal land, it is good, when thinking about it, to imagine it as multiple segments. Most agree on a three-way separation: the North, Central and South Strands. Vacationers to the area tend to spend the majority of their time in the portion of the Strand where they are staying, a testament to the distribution of great vacation amenities throughout the greater Myrtle Beach area. - Read More

    Pawleys Plantation Golf Course

    Posted on 03/19

    The Grand Strand is home to over 90 golf courses. Not all are luminaries in the golf world, but a very high number of them can be considered “must-see” and those high-mark courses are scattered throughout the region, from Pawleys Island in the south up to Calabash, North Carolina. In the former area sits Pawleys Plantation, one of two Jack Nicklaus Signature courses on the Grand Strand. Since it opened in 1988, Pawleys Plantation has entranced golfers with the beautiful natural setting it enjoys and confounds others with the challenge it poses. - Read More

  • A Properly Enjoyable Experience Awaits Golfers at the Resort Club at Grande Dunes.

    Grande Dunes Golf Course

    Posted on 03/19

    During its formative decades, Myrtle Beach proper existed between the Atlantic Ocean in the east and the Intracoastal Waterway in the west. But in recent years, the prosperity of the area has caused expansion of residential, commercial and recreational spaces west of that skinny, vital route. As a result, many recently built golf courses have taken advantage of a new sort of waterfront property, draping several of the Grand Strand’s most photographed holes along the Waterway’s banks. - Read More

    Pine Lakes Country Club

    Posted on 03/19

    Pine Lakes Country Club is in some ways an atypical Myrtle Beach area golf course. The gentlemen who greet you and tend to your golf bag at the bag drop are clad in tartan and knickers. Golfers do not have to contend with out-of-bounds stakes and houses except on the very periphery of the course. But despite its departures from the perceived norms of Myrtle Beach golf, Pine Lakes is where it all began. - Read More

  • PineHills Course at Myrtlewood Golf Club, Myrtle Beach - Beach Modernism

    Posted on 11/13

    Arthur Hills is one of the country’s best known golf course architects, especially to those living in the Midwest. He has but one course on the Myrtle Beach Grand Strand: the PineHills Course at Myrtlewood Golf Club, opened in 1993. PineHills stands in considerable contrast to its elder sibling the Palmetto Course, which opened in 1972 and features many classic design elements. Mr. Hills’ course, though shorter—6,640 yards from the back Blue tees—is generally regarded as the more challenging of Myrtlewood’s tracks, though it is by no means a brute. - Read More

  • Golf Director Review: International Club

    Posted on 12/14

    One of the best lay-outs I have seen here in Myrtle Beach. The course was in pristine condition with very true, receptive greens. It is definitely a shot precision course with narrow fairways and doglegged holes that may be a hindrance to a big hitter. - Read More

    This summer will be a bit quieter than usual around the Dunes Golf and Beach Club. Glasses will still clink outside on the patio, by the pool and in the dining room and bar areas of the clubhouse. The wind will still rustle the trees and the ocean will send waved up and down the beach. But for June, July and much of August, the golf course will be silent except for the sounds of machinery that will be elevating the Dunes to new heights in preparation for its hosting the 2014 PGA Professional National Championship next June. - Read More

  • Springtime Brings Excellent Conditions to Myrtle Beach Golf Courses

    Posted on 03/21

    Springtime in Myrtle Beach is an unparalleled time of year for warm weather seekers who love golf. March, April and May boast average daily high temperatures of 64, 72 and 79 degrees, with April being the second-driest month of the year, with only 2.51 average inches of precipitation. This combination of warm temperatures and moderate rain wakes the Bermuda grass that covers the more than 100 area courses from its cold-weather slumber. Greens, fairways and roughs outgrow their overseeded rye grass or paint and are able to be cut to pleasingly low height daily as heat and moisture dictate. Flowers bloom. Fountains spout jets of water. Beverage cart drivers rev up their engines in earnest. Golf blossoms again. - Read More

He has but one course on the Myrtle Beach Grand Strand: the PineHills Course at Myrtlewood Golf Club, opened in 1993. PineHills stands in considerable contrast to its elder sibling the Palmetto Course, which opened in 1972 and features many classic design elements. Mr. Hills’ course, though shorter—6,640 yards from the back Blue tees—is generally regarded as the more challenging of Myrtlewood’s tracks, though it is by no means a brute. - Read More

    When many people think of golf in Myrtle Beach, they tend to picture a large, fairly homogenous group of golf courses: water and wetlands everywhere, lots of sand, little to no movement in the land. And for some courses, that’s more or less true. Meadowlands Golf Club, though, is not one of them. - Read More

    The 1980s marked a time of explosion in the golf world, with hundreds of new courses opening every year. Perhaps nowhere was this truer than golf in Myrtle Beach, where the complement of courses more than doubled in that decade. It was in that decade that the Golden Bear left his mark on the region, designing two courses nearly simultaneously that sit roughly 44 miles apart but close kin in visuals, shot values and quality: Pawleys Plantation Golf and Country Club in the south and Long Bay Club in the north. - Read More

  • Stiff Competition Among Grand Strand’s Best Two-Shotters

    Posted on 05/03

    The vast majority of golf holes that have ever been built are par 4s. They are the standard form of challenge on most golf courses. As such, they come in so many different lengths and shapes that even the most well-traveled golf nut is hard-pressed to think of two with more than a passing mutual resemblance. This abundance breeds competition, too, making the task of trying to determine the ten “best” par 4s in any given area—to say nothing of the golf hub that is Myrtle Beach—an arduous one. As with the list of par 5s from a few weeks ago, this list of par 4 is not meant to be exhaustive or final. It is more of a tour of some of the diverse palette of holes draped across the Grand Strand. Here are ten great par 4s, arranged in ascending order of back tee length. - Read More

    Posted on 04/06

    The Myrtle Beach golf scene enjoys such great variety that debates rage constantly about which courses or holes are “the best.” Those debates are never settled—never will be—because the styles of Myrtle Beach’s 100-plus courses vary so much that it comes down to personal preference.  If you’re a Golden Bearophile, Long Bay and Pawleys Plantation are going to be centerpieces of your every visit.  If you’re a Fazioholic, you’ll hit up TPC Myrtle Beach and the Fazio Course at Barefoot Resort and you may even have your home course pro try and arrange a round for you at the private Wachesaw Plantation when you visit. - Read More

    Being that the Grand Strand is such a large expanse of coastal land, it is good, when thinking about it, to imagine it as multiple segments. Most agree on a three-way separation: the North, Central and South Strands. Vacationers to the area tend to spend the majority of their time in the portion of the Strand where they are staying, a testament to the distribution of great vacation amenities throughout the greater Myrtle Beach area. - Read More

    During its formative decades, Myrtle Beach proper existed between the Atlantic Ocean in the east and the Intracoastal Waterway in the west. But in recent years, the prosperity of the area has caused expansion of residential, commercial and recreational spaces west of that skinny, vital route. As a result, many recently built golf courses have taken advantage of a new sort of waterfront property, draping several of the Grand Strand’s most photographed holes along the Waterway’s banks. - Read More
