Myrtle Beach National
Take your pick at Myrtle Beach National, where there are three distinct courses to choose from. The Southcreek Course is straightforward but not without its challenges. The West Course is considered one of the most difficult in Myrtle Beach, full of bunkers and water hazards. The King's North Course, designed by legendary golfer Arnold Palmer, features holes that are so uniquely tricky they're almost gimmicky, but they are always a fun challenge.

Tidewater Golf Club
Tidewater Golf Club is built along a narrow, watery stretch where the Atlantic Ocean, the intra-coastal waterway and dozens of small marshy patches help create natural boundaries and features in this popular course. Tidewater is so popular, in fact, that you may need to book your tee time a season in advance to ensure you'll get to play.

Grande Dunes
A rare and difficult feat has been accomplished in the design of Grande Dunes. It can be challenging for players of all levels, but it is considered completely playable for novices. Each hole has six tees, allowing players a great range of control over the difficulty over the course. Golf Magazine has named it one of 10 world-class courses any golfer can play.
