Golf Digest rating

a consistent favorite of grand strand golfers for all skill levels

Anyone who spends more than the blink of an eye in Myrtle Beach is sure to pass Myrtlewood Golf Club, which boasts a can't-miss location on Highway 17 and whose holes can be seen just across the street from one of Myrtle Beach's biggest attractions, Broadway at the Beach.

Trying to decide between one or the other? Better players should book the PineHills over the Palmetto, while those out for a more relaxing round and a couple holes along the Intracoastal Waterway should go with the Palmetto.

The Palmetto is the original championship course here and is widely popular as a result of its playability for the higher handicap. You'll see a lot of women and seniors out here who enjoy the wider fairways and trouble that lies further away from greens.

Designed by legendary golf course architect Edmund B. Ault, Palmetto at Myrtlewood Golf Club has been a consistent favorite of Grand Strand golfers for nearly two generations, earning continuous rankings as one of the top repeat-play courses in Myrtle Beach. This highly popular course maintains optimal playing conditions throughout the year and is always ready to offer a challenge to golfers of all skill levels.

The Palmetto is an average, unassuming course until its strong finishing holes. Throughout your round, you’ll find plenty of solid character and the welcome surprise of a few wild thrills.
