Combining more than 100 golf courses and a burgeoning resort and restaurant scene, Myrtle Beach, S.C., is a choice destination for a three-day golf weekend.
Indeed, travelling golfers can choose from first-class accommodation such as Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort, voted one of the \"World\'s 50 Best Golf Resorts\" by Conde Nast Traveller Magazine, and golf courses such as the revered Dunes Golf and Beach Club.
To make the planning a little easier, here\'s a three-day Myrtle Beach golf itinerary that won\'t disappoint.
Friday Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort is a great place to stay if you\'re travelling with the family. It\'s got something for everyone, including golf, tennis, dining and other entertainment options.
Its 96 rooms come with either lakeside of poolside views. If you need more space, choose from a two-room suite, condominium, villa or fairway cottage. Plan to pay around $100 a night for a one-bedroom suite.
The Myrtle Beach Marriott Resort at Grande Dunes is another great option. Nearly all the rooms here have ocean views, and the resort boasts the Ocean\'s on 82nd restaurant, a coffee house, spa and a two-tier pool. Rooms run about $200 a night.
Once you\'ve checked in, dust of your golf clubs and head to the Legends for a round on its Moorland Course. P.B. Dye, son of golf course design legend Pete Dye, crafted one hell of a fun golf course at Moorlands. Carrying a 134-slope rating, this is anything but a pushover, but it\'s not such a ball-buster that you\'ll contemplate giving the game up for bowling after your round.
Moorlands is full of interesting, unique holes, such as No. 4, which requires you to shoot over a waste area to the raised fairway while avoiding a bunker named Big Bertha. You\'ll also enjoy the quiet at Moorlands, where you\'ll hear virtually no traffic noise, something unheard of in tourist-heavy Myrtle Beach.
