Setting up this years trip and I’m debating between playing northern courses and staying at the Glens or playing central and staying at Myrtlewood. I hear Myrtlewood is hit and miss and have never had a bad experience at The Glens.
mare there any other decent places to stay (not on 501). Thanks fir any help.
The location depends mostly on the courses you want to play, then the
lodging that you like.
I see multiple recommendations for these, but have not stayed in them,
so consider them ideas to look at:
Barefoot Yacht Club - Tilglman - Avista

@artmbgolf We’re very familiar with the area. Northern trip would get us at Thistle, Crow Creek, tidewater, Glen Dornoch & Oyster Bay. Central would be The Dunes, Pine Lakes, Kings North & Grand Dunes.
Brian has condos at Crescent Shores which is in North Myrtle, right next to Molly Darcys.
Staying there makes it easy to get to all the central AND north courses that you mentioned. FYI.
Brian says the condos there are real nice. I think one of them is a 4 bedroom condo.

I don't know if this is an active thread or not, but. . .
If you don't mind driving to golf courses on different ends of the Strand in one trip, consider a place located near an entrance ramp to Rt. 31. I've stayed at SeaWatch (on the beach and next to Arcadian Shores) and there is an entrance to Rt.31 VERY close by. Makes traveling north OR south less stressful than dealing with the traffic and lights on 17 and shaves TIME off a trip, even if it means more MILES. I've been going to MB since the days before 31 and yes, back then you had to either play close to where you were staying or take a PM time if you wanted to travel away from your location. Now? Not so much of a concern.
Just my $.02
I agree.
We have been staying at the Kingston Plantation resorts... which is near Restaurant Row...and between Arcadian Shores golf course and the Atlantic Ocean.
The road that runs north-south along Arcadian Shores connects to Rt 22 . I can get to Rt 31 in about 7 minutes. Rt 31 can take me SOUTH to Rt 544 Or NORTH to Rt 9.
Great central location.
We will be staying at Hampton North in July for wifes 60th birthday celebration ( sshhh) . I may be golfing a couple times since my Caledonia and (maybe) Tidewater rainchecks have expiration dates of 2023.
Shoulder surgery in October has me hobbled but I can't just let these rainchecks expire. That would be bad golf etiquette .
