Where to Stay on a South Myrtle Beach Golf Trip
If your golf trip is taking you to the south end of the Grand Strand, do yourself a favor and base your lodging out of the Litchfield/Pawleys Island area. It's quieter, it's moss-draped and Lowcountry-gorgeous, and it puts you right in the middle of everything — Pawleys Island, Murrells Inlet, Litchfield, and Georgetown golf courses are all just a short drive away. Very little traffic-light hopping required.
The Vibe Down South
South Strand golf trips have a different energy than the North end. Think live oaks dripping with Spanish moss, quiet beaches, and a slower pace that makes it feel like you snuck away somewhere special instead of just driving 20 minutes down Highway 17. It's the kind of place where the golf is serious, but the vibe never is.
Where to Actually Lay Your Head
Brittain Resorts at MBResorts.com has the lodging game on lock down here, with rental options for pretty much every kind of trip:
Litchfield Vacation Rentals — classic beach house and condo rentals if you want space to spread out with your group.
Pawleys Pier Village — a great option if you want to be walkable to the water and the local scene.
Lachicotte Vacation Rentals — Pawleys Island charm with that laid-back, salt-air feel.
Oceanfront Litchfield Inn — perfect if you want simple, no-fuss oceanfront rooms without managing a whole rental.
Want to Stay Where You Play?
If you'd rather wake up and walk to the first tee, Caledonia Golf Vacations' True Blue Villas are one of the most popular picks on the South Strand. You're staying right on property at True Blue, with easy access over to Caledonia Golf & Fish Club too — two of the most respected courses in the entire Myrtle Beach area, steps from your door.
Dinner, Drinks, and the MarshWalk
After golf, head to the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk. This boardwalk strip along the marsh is the go-to for fresh seafood, waterfront bars, and live music most nights of the week. It's the social anchor of the South Strand and honestly one of the best ways to end a golf day, drink in hand, watching the sun go down over the marsh.
