Why this one
The biggest course list on the Strand, with lunch thrown in
Founders Group owns more courses in Myrtle Beach than anyone else, and this package opens all twenty one of them at once. Three of the top rated courses on this site are on it, so are the value rounds groups come back to every year, and wherever the group sleeps there are half a dozen of them within twenty minutes. A group that wants a different course every day and the day's food sorted before it leaves the room gets that here.
- 01
Twenty one courses, any mix
Grande Dunes, TPC Myrtle Beach, Kings North and Pawleys Plantation for the big rounds. Pine Lakes for the history. Willbrook, River Hills, Tradition and the Avocet at Wild Wing for value. The three courses at Myrtle Beach National, both at Myrtlewood and World Tour in the middle of town, Aberdeen, Long Bay and Colonial Charters up at Longs, and Founders Club, Litchfield and River Club down at Pawleys.
- 02
Lunch, two drinks and range balls at every course
Every round comes with lunch off the menu at the course, a burger, a wrap or a club sandwich rather than a hot dog at the turn, and two draft beers or sodas to go with it. Range balls are waiting before the round everywhere but Pine Lakes and Founders Club, which have no driving range. The food is good at these clubhouses, so the group leaves happy however it played.
- 03
One price, wherever you sleep
The package is not tied to one hotel. Villas on the course at Myrtlewood, a resort on the beach at Litchfield, or an oceanfront tower in town, and the quote comes back as one number per golfer: the rounds, the room, the lunches, the tee times and the taxes. Golf only, with no beds, is quoted the same way. Nothing waiting for you at the counter and no platform fees.
The courses
Twenty one courses. Start with these six.
Two resort courses on the water, a tour course, the marsh at Pawleys Plantation, the oldest course on the Strand and the one built from famous holes. Six to build the trip around, fifteen more below. Ratings are from golfers who played them.

Any mix counts. Grande Dunes and Kings North on consecutive days is a Founders Group Inclusive package, and so is a week that plays seven of the twenty one. The planner spaces the rounds across your stay, keeps the group's tee times together and puts the courses in an order that does not send anyone from Longs to Pawleys before breakfast.
Where you sleep
Villas on two of the courses, in the middle of the list
The package sleeps wherever the group wants, and the villas at Myrtlewood are the natural fit. They sit on the Palmetto and PineHills courses off 48th Avenue North, both on the package, with Pine Lakes five minutes away, Grande Dunes ten minutes up the road, and World Tour and the three Myrtle Beach National courses within twenty. One to three bedroom condos with full kitchens, a washer and dryer, balconies over the fairways, outdoor and indoor pools and a lazy river. For a group that wants the Pawleys Island courses and the beach, Litchfield Beach and Golf Resort puts River Club, Litchfield and Willbrook within a few minutes.
Neither is required. Oceanfront hotels, condos in North Myrtle Beach and villas on the other courses all work with the same golf, and the lunch, drinks and range balls come with the round wherever you sleep. Say where the group would rather be and the planner quotes the twenty one courses around it.

Three ways to play it
Most booked
Stay and play with lunch
The standard Founders Group Inclusive package: nights wherever the group wants them and a round a day on any of the twenty one courses, with the food and drink built in.
- Lunch off the menu at the course on every day of play
- Two draft beers or sodas with it, and you must be 21 for the beers
- Range balls before every round, except at Pine Lakes and Founders Club
- Lunch and drinks are issued with the round and good at that course on that day
Golf only
Rounds without the beds
Already have somewhere to sleep, or close enough to drive in? The same twenty one courses and the same inclusions, quoted as rounds only.
- Any mix of the twenty one courses, one round or more
- Lunch, two drinks and range balls still come with every round
- The group's tee times booked together and confirmed by the planner
- The same $100 deposit per golfer holds it
Practice first
Range balls before every round
Nineteen of the twenty one have a driving range, and a bucket is waiting at every one of them before the round, so the warm up is part of the package rather than a charge at the counter.
- Range balls each day of play, before the round
- Pine Lakes and Founders Club have no driving range, so none there
- Both have a putting green, and Founders Club has hitting bays into a net
The number depends on the season, the courses, the room and how many are in the group, so there is no single sticker price. Send the dates and a head count and the quote comes back with everything on it. The inclusions come from the courses and can change with the tee time, the type of round and availability, and the planner confirms exactly what is in yours before anything is charged. Other lengths of stay are quoted the same way.
Pick the week. We will hold the tee times.
