The GolfTroop “Ultimate” Package: A Beach House, a Pool, and Three Bucket-List Courses

GolfTroop’s Myrtle Beach Ultimate Golf Package pairs a massive private beach house with three of the Grand Strand’s most-talked-about courses — True Blue, Caledonia, and TPC Myrtle Beach. It’s their staff pick, and once you see the lodging and the tee sheet side by side, it’s not hard to see why. Here’s the breakdown.

Where You’re Sleeping: The Sandcastle

Calling this a “vacation rental” undersells it a little. The Sandcastle is a 5,500-square-foot house on the Garden City Beach peninsula, and it is big.

• 6 bedrooms, 8 beds, 5.5 baths — sleeps 16+
• Every bedroom has its own attached bathroom (no fighting over the sink)
• Two separate living rooms
• An elevator, an in-ground pool, and a fire pit
• A few minutes from the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk for food and drinks after the round

If you’re rolling deep with a big buddies trip, this solves the “where does everyone sleep” logistics headache in one shot. It’s genuinely one of the largest houses on that stretch of peninsula, and it’s steps from the beach — so non-golf hours are covered too.

Where You’re Playing: Three Legit Heavy Hitters

This is really where the package earns the “Ultimate” name. You’re not playing filler rounds to pad a scorecard — all three stops are courses people specifically travel to Myrtle Beach to play.

True Blue Golf Club — A Mike Strantz design just south of town on the Hammock Coast Golf Trail, known for wide fairways, dramatic elevation changes, and views that make you forget you’re supposed to be counting strokes.

Caledonia Golf & Fish Club — Consistently ranked in the top 100 public-access courses in the country. Also a Mike Strantz design, threading through centuries-old oaks with the kind of Lowcountry charm that photographs better than your swing does.

TPC Myrtle Beach — PGA TOUR-caliber conditioning and practice facilities, where Dustin Johnson has honed his game as a collegiate player and professionally through his namesake golf school. If you’ve ever wanted to warm up on the same range as a major champion, this is your shot.

And a nice touch: GPS carts and range balls are included at all three courses — no extra charges at the pro shop counter.

What It Costs (and the Fine Print You Should Actually Read)

GolfTroop lists this as a 5-day package starting around $179 per golfer per night, climbing up to roughly $399/night in peak season. That’s based on 4+ golfers at double occupancy, and it requires at least 14 days’ advance notice.

A couple of things worth flagging before you get too attached to that low-end number:

• That’s a starting rate, not a guaranteed rate — actual pricing depends on your dates, group size, and season
• Holidays, special events, and blackout dates can change things
• You’ll need to request a quote to get real numbers for your trip

So treat “$179/night” as a floor, not a promise. GolfTroop’s own listing tells you to verify pricing before booking, and that’s good advice.

Who This Package Actually Makes Sense For

This one’s built for a group trip, not a solo golf getaway or a couples’ weekend. With a house that sleeps 16+ and pricing structured around 4-or-more golfers, it shines brightest for:

• Buddies trips looking to keep everyone under one roof
• Groups who want a private pool and living space to hang out after golf, not just a hotel room to crash in
• Golfers who want a schedule stacked with genuinely great courses instead of a mix of “name” courses and filler rounds

If you’re a twosome, you’ll likely find better value elsewhere — this package’s whole value proposition is built around splitting a big, beautiful house across a big group.

The Bottom Line

The GolfTroop Ultimate Golf Package pairs one of the more impressive private-home rentals on the Grand Strand with three courses (True Blue, Caledonia, TPC Myrtle Beach) that would headline just about any Myrtle Beach trip on their own. Bundled together, with carts and range balls included, it’s a strong case for why it’s the staff pick — just get a real quote before you start planning who gets which bedroom.
