Golf Courses
There are three magnificent championship courses at Myrtle Beach National, all of which are Arnold Palmer designs. The King’s Course is regarded as one of the best public courses in the US, featuring a range of challenging and enjoyable holes. South Creek is the shortest of the three courses but requires accuracy from the tee or else the multiple waste bunkers will gobble up any errant shot. The West Course is nestled within the local Carolina pines that create beautiful backdrops on many of the holes.
