South Strand Golf Trip Offers Casual Charm

November 10, 2011

Tradition Club is one of many outstanding Myrtle Beach golf courses located along the South StrandMany players take a Myrtle Beach golf vacation to escape the hustle and bustle of home. Others escape the hustle and bustle of Myrtle Beach at a South Strand golf resort.

Stretching from Surfside Beach to Georgetown, the South Strand has all the great accommodations of Myrtle Beach in a more laid-back environment.

Whether you're looking for an oceanfront hotel or a country club-style resort, the South Strand has it all in a serene, South Carolina Lowcountry setting.

In addition to being home to some of the Southeast's best courses, the South Strand is far less developed than the city of Myrtle Beach.

The sleepy little fishing village of Murrells Inlet and the “arrogantly shabby” town of Pawleys Island are among the great places to stay or visit for charm.

Litchfield Beach Golf & Beach Resort and Pawleys Plantation Golf & Country Club offer luxurious accommodations and a great taste of Lowcountry living. True Blue, located in Pawleys Island near Caledonia Golf & Fish Club, features villas with scenic views and one of the nation’s best golf courses.

Of course, the oceanfront is what draws many golfers to the Grand Strand, and the South Strand has its share of places to stay on the lovely beaches.

Dunes Beach Resort in Garden City Beach is the ideal place to kick back by the sea after a long day on the links, and Springmaid Beach Resort on the southern end of Myrtle Beach provides its guests with a resort atmosphere that's a lot closer to the nightlife, attractions and shopping of the Sun Fun City.

So whether you are looking to explore Murrell’s Inlet’s latest attraction or test out a hammock and relax in Pawleys Island, the South Strand make for an ideal Myrtle Beach golf vacation.
