The Palmetto Course at Myrtlewood Golf Resort has been a favorite with visiting golfers to the Myrtle Beach area for over 30 years. And, for more than 30 years, the Palmetto Course has been continuously ranked as one of the top courses along the Grand Strand. Landscaped for optimum play, the course meanders sedately along through growth pines, wetlands, lakes, ponds and, of course, the stunning views of the Intracoastal Waterway. The tifdwarf bermuda grass greens can run quite fast, but the overall layout lends itself to an enjoyable round for golfers of every level of play. At Par 72, the 6,977 yards are a consistent demand of your skills.

Where to Stay:
Myrtlewood has its own on-site accommodations, and there are literally dozens of hotels and motels in the Myrtle Beach area. So no matter what your budget or choice in lodging, you can easily put Myrtlewood into your golf vacation plans. If you’re not thrilled with the idea of staying at a golf club, my own recommendation is that you try The Kingston Plantation. It's not too far from Myrtlewood and you can include the courses as part of one of their specials.
