Trying to find good golf courses and accommodation for a trip to Myrtle Beach?

4 of us are planning a trip in April. We are all good golfers (+3 to 9 handicap). We are looking to play 3/4 rounds of golf on good courses and enjoy a nice local hotel or some sort of accommodation. I don't really know where to start looking online. Appreciate any recommendations....Trying to find good golf courses and accommodation for a trip to Myrtle Beach?I make 1-2 trips to MB a year (once in the spring and most years I play the WorldAm the week of Labour Day) via auto from Toronto.



April is typically high season as far as golf so expect courses to be priced accordingly.



Courses:



-Everyone and their mother has their own favourites. The two "musts" would be True Blue (my favourite) and Dunes Club (MB National, TPC, Legends Resort, and Pawleys Plantation are also on most folks' top tier).

-If you go through any wholesaler/travel companies, find out what courses they put you on.

-There are numerous MB Golf blogs and websites that review and rate courses. Take reviews for what they are.

-Just assume that a majority of the other golfers will be unfamiliar with the courses. By that, you can safely assume you won't be getting around in 3 1/2 hours.



Lodging:



-Traffic can be brutal at times...consider this when picking a place to stay and courses. Some of the courses on the Grand Strand are actually in North Carolina...give yourself plenty of time to get up and back.

-If it's four of you, I'd recommend you consider a condo rental. You'll have a lot more space, plus the added value of a furnished kitchen, etc. There are numerous condo rental outfits that can assist (I have a contact who I barter with for my April trip). Plus you've got space should a poker game break out.

-There are plenty of chain hotels (your Marriott, Hilton, Holiday Inn, etc.) in the area, but consider location relative to where you want to play. Anything on the beach in the main downtown area- give yourself more time to get to the courses.

-Barefoot Landing has a ton of lodging opportunity, several courses close by, and a couple bars if you're in the mood for being social (not an endorsement, but it is fairly convenient).



Travel:



-Flights in to MB can be expensive (especially if you're paying baggage fees for clubs), and the car rental folks will upcharge for SUV's and minivans. Just factor that in.



There are several "dens of iniquity" in the area if ballet theatre avec the pole is your thing.



Either way, it's a great time and plenty of the courses are more than enough challenge, even for + handicappers.Trying to find good golf courses and accommodation for a trip to Myrtle Beach?
