Myrtlewood was the Grand Strand’s first multi-course property, and it is still one of the most central. Its two courses start from 48th Avenue North, a few minutes from Broadway at the Beach and the oceanfront hotels. That makes it easy for a group without a car for every four players. PineHills opened in 1966 and the Palmetto in 1973, and both have had greens and bunker work in recent years. The clubhouse deck looks across the Intracoastal Waterway.
Myrtlewood Golf Club green fees and tee times.
Both courses are booked on the club’s own online tee sheet. You can filter by course, and the club guarantees its best price for direct bookings. There is no published rate card, because prices are dynamic. Phone 843-913-4516 for group requests, or use the quick-quote form to combine Myrtlewood with other Founders Group courses in a package. Kids Play Free covers juniors aged 16 and under with a fee-paying adult on both courses, and the Prime Times card gives discounted rounds across the group. The PineHills tee sheet also has its own direct link, which saves filtering if you only want that course.
The courses at Myrtlewood Golf Club.
Palmetto Course
Edmund Alt’s 1973 course runs beside the Intracoastal, and the club highlights its greens complexes and its risk-and-reward choices. A recent greens and bunker renovation has refreshed it. The 18th along the waterway is the reason to book it, and the clubhouse deck overlooks the same stretch of water for a drink afterwards.
PineHills Course
The older of the two, opened in 1966 and now credited to Arthur Hills. In a recent project that kept the course open, architect Dan Schlegel’s team reshaped and deepened the bunkers, fitted Capillary Concrete liners and new drainage, and raised the bunker faces so they can be seen from the tee. Before the work, many could not.
The round, in perspective.
The two courses contrast well. The Palmetto, designed by Edmund Alt, was the first course in Myrtle Beach to play along the Intracoastal Waterway. Its 18th, a par four that runs beside the water from tee to green, is one of the best-known finishing holes in the area. PineHills is now an Arthur Hills design, and the club calls it one of the most player-friendly layouts in Myrtle Beach, known for smooth, fast greens. Its highlights are the daunting par-five third, the fescue-covered mounds on the 12th and the par-four 16th. The 16th has a second fairway, and the approach from it is all carry over water.

Make the trip work.
Myrtlewood suits a 36-hole day without driving: play the Palmetto in the morning and PineHills after lunch, or the other way round, so the Palmetto’s 18th falls at sunset. It also fills an arrival or departure day well, because the club is close to the airport and the hotels. The Dog House is the on-site restaurant for a quick meal between rounds.
Myrtle Beach International (MYR) is about 15 minutes south-west by car. The club is at 1500 48th Avenue North, just inland of US 17 Bypass and about two miles from Broadway at the Beach. Taxis and ride-hailing cars from the oceanfront hotels take ten minutes or so outside peak traffic.
Myrtlewood Villas, condo-style lodging with several pools, sits on the same property as the courses, about a mile inland, and is sold in stay-and-play golf packages. Otherwise, the oceanfront hotels between about 40th and 80th Avenue North are within a short drive. Broadway at the Beach has chain hotels for anyone who wants restaurants within walking distance.
Make a trip of it.
Grande Dunes, a sister course also on the Intracoastal, and Pine Lakes, the Strand’s first course from 1927, are each within about ten minutes. The Dunes Golf & Beach Club is close by on the ocean side. Myrtle Beach National is about 20 minutes inland for a Palmer day. Off the course, Broadway at the Beach and the oceanfront boardwalk are minutes away.
Find your season.
Both courses open all year. March, April and October are busiest, and the 18th along the Intracoastal is at its best in the low autumn light. Summer rates drop, but afternoon thunderstorms are common.
Architect Dan Schlegel’s team reshaped and deepened the bunkers, installed Capillary Concrete liners and new drainage, and raised the backs of the bunkers so they are visible from the tee and on the approach. The course stayed open during the work, and Schlegel said the layout seen from the air is largely unchanged.
