Myrtle Beach golf packages cost about $450 to $700 per golfer for three nights and four rounds with shared lodging in 2026, and about $300 to $500 for two rounds. Golf-only rounds without lodging can start around $70 at off-peak times. Premium courses, oceanfront rooms and spring or fall dates push a package to $800 to $1,200 or more.
Myrtle Beach runs on golf packages. Dozens of operators, hotels and condo companies sell them, the courses hold back tee times for package business, and a whole local economy of pancake houses, seafood buffets and 12-passenger van rentals has grown up around groups of men in matching polos. It’s the most efficient golf-trip machine in America, and it can be very good value. It can also be confusing, because every operator prices a little differently and the headline “from” prices rarely match what a group actually pays.
This guide goes deeper on the packages than our Myrtle Beach golf trip hub. It covers what packages really cost in 2026, with and without lodging, what’s included and what isn’t, how course choice and the calendar move the price, three sample quotes line by line, how to book, and the fine print that catches groups out. If you’re still choosing between Myrtle Beach and somewhere else, start with the hub.
Package prices below come from the Myrtle Beach Golf package calculator’s 2026 ranges (published May 29, 2026), with course price ranges from our Myrtle Beach research and dated operator listings where noted. Myrtle Beach prices move constantly with the season, the day of the week and the time of day, so treat every number here as a guide for checking quotes, not a promise.

How much does a Myrtle Beach golf package cost?
In 2026, most Myrtle Beach golf packages with lodging cost about $450 to $700 per golfer for three nights and four rounds, according to the Myrtle Beach Golf package calculator. Two rounds run about $300 to $500, three rounds $350 to $600, and five rounds $600 to $1,000 or more. Course choice and season move the price most.
Here are the calculator’s 2026 ranges, per golfer, for packages with shared lodging:
| Package | Typical 2026 price per golfer | What moves it |
|---|---|---|
| 2 rounds | $300–$500+ | Course tier, weekday or weekend, lodging type |
| 3 rounds | $350–$600+ | As above |
| 4 rounds, 3 nights | $450–$700+ | The standard buddies-trip package |
| 5 rounds | $600–$1,000+ | One or two premium courses push it up fast |
Group size matters too, because condos and multi-tee-time bookings get cheaper per head:
| Group size | Typical 2026 price per golfer |
|---|---|
| 4 golfers | $550–$900+ |
| 8 golfers | $450–$800+ |
| 12 or more golfers | $400–$750+ |
And the calculator splits the market into three broad tiers: budget packages at about $300 to $500 per golfer, mid-range at the $450 to $700 level, and premium packages at $800 to $1,200 or more.
For comparison, one big international operator, Golfbreaks, advertised Myrtle Beach packages from $759 per person for three nights and three rounds in September 2026. “From” prices like that are usually for the cheapest dates, lodging and courses, so treat them as a floor, not a quote.
What doesn’t show up in these numbers: getting there, food and drink, tips and extras. Our hub’s budget puts a typical four-day trip at roughly $1,100 to $1,700 per golfer all-in for a group flying in, and less for groups who drive.
What’s included in a Myrtle Beach golf package?
A Myrtle Beach golf package normally includes lodging for your nights, pre-booked tee times at the courses you choose, and carts. Some add breakfast, range balls, a replay round or a gift card. Food, drinks, tips and travel are almost never included, and taxes and course surcharges vary by operator, so check every quote.
The core of every package:
- Lodging. A condo, hotel room or resort villa for the nights you book, usually shared. Two golfers to a bedroom or four to a two-bedroom condo is normal.
- Tee times. One tee time per foursome per round, booked by the operator at the courses you pick from its list. For groups, that means consecutive times: two for eight golfers, three for twelve.
- Carts. Almost all Myrtle Beach courses are cart golf, and package rates usually include the cart. Check anyway, because a $25-a-round surprise times four rounds adds up.
What’s sometimes included, depending on the package:
- Breakfast at hotel-based packages.
- Range balls before your round.
- Replay rounds, often at a discount if you want to play 36 the same day.
- Promotions, such as a free night, a free round or a gift card for food or the pro shop. Operators have run “fourth night free” packages with a $100 gift card, and Barefoot Resort has run “play three, get one free” deals on its four courses.
What’s almost never included:
- Travel. Flights, gas and the rental van.
- Food and drink, beyond any breakfast.
- Tips for bag staff and beverage carts.
- Course surcharges for the premium courses, which are usually added on top of the base price.
What “all-inclusive” means here. You’ll see “all-inclusive Myrtle Beach golf packages” advertised everywhere. In Myrtle Beach that almost always means golf, lodging and carts bundled into one price, sometimes with breakfast or range balls, not the food-and-drink all-inclusive you’d find at a Caribbean resort. If you want meals and drinks included, ask exactly which ones.
Who sells Myrtle Beach golf packages?
Part of what makes Myrtle Beach confusing is the number of sellers. They fall into five groups, and each has its strengths:
- Big package operators. Companies such as MyrtleBeachGolfTrips.com and Myrtle Beach Golf sell packages across dozens of courses and lodging options, with tee-time allocations at the popular courses. They’re the default for groups, and the best way to get several premium courses in one booking.
- Hotels and condo resorts. Many oceanfront hotels and condo complexes sell their own stay-and-play packages, usually with a shorter list of courses. They’re simple and can be good value, especially in the off-season.
- Golf resorts with their own courses. Barefoot Resort, with four courses, and Legends, with three and on-site lodging, package their own golf with their own rooms. Ideal if you’re happy to play most of your rounds in one place.
- Course groups and trails. Groups of courses marketed together, such as the Waccamaw Golf Trail’s 11 courses around Pawleys Island, sell multi-round packages within their group. The Myrtle Beach Golf Holiday, the area’s long-running golf marketing cooperative, promotes packages from its member courses and lodging.
- National and international operators. Companies such as Golfbreaks sell Myrtle Beach alongside other destinations. Handy if you’re comparing trips, though local operators usually know the courses and the condos better.
There’s no single cheapest seller. The same trip can price differently across all five, so get quotes from at least two kinds before you commit.
Golf packages with lodging: condo, hotel or golf resort?
The lodging choice affects the price, the comfort and the group dynamic more than any other decision, and Myrtle Beach has every option:
| Lodging | Best for | Pros | Cons | Price effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Condo (2–4 bedrooms) | Groups of 4–12 | Kitchen, living room, golf bag storage, cheapest per head | Shared bathrooms, someone has to deal with the check-in | Lowest |
| Hotel room | Couples, small groups | Daily housekeeping, often breakfast, easy | Less room to hang out, more expensive per head | Middle |
| Golf resort villa | Groups who want to walk to the first tee | On-site golf, resort amenities, no morning drive | Fewer course choices without driving | Middle to high |
| Oceanfront | Groups with non-golfers, or anyone who wants a view | The beach is the point | Noticeably more expensive, and you’ll drive to every course | High |
A few practical notes. Condos are the default for a reason: a four-bedroom unit split eight ways is far cheaper per golfer than four hotel rooms, and the kitchen saves a fortune on breakfasts. Golf resorts such as Barefoot, with its four courses by Tom Fazio, Greg Norman, Davis Love III and Pete Dye, or Legends, which has its own on-site lodging and packages, are the best choice for groups who’d rather not drive in the morning. And oceanfront is lovely, but most of the best courses aren’t on the beach, so you’ll spend 20 to 40 minutes in the car each morning wherever you stay.
Location matters more than the room. The Grand Strand is about 60 miles long, so pick a base near the courses you most want to play: Pawleys Island and Murrells Inlet for Caledonia, True Blue and TPC Myrtle Beach; central Myrtle Beach for Myrtle Beach National, Pine Lakes and Legends; North Myrtle Beach for Barefoot and Tidewater.
Can you book a Myrtle Beach golf package without lodging?
Yes. Golf-only packages bundle tee times, usually with carts, at a per-round price, and they suit groups with a beach house, families with a rental or golfers who live within driving distance. Rates listed online in 2026 started around $70 for a late-afternoon round at Pine Lakes and $84 at TPC Myrtle Beach.
Those online rates show how much the time of day matters. The same booking listings put Pine Lakes at up to $117 for an early-morning time and TPC Myrtle Beach at up to $143. The listing didn’t make the season clear, and spring and fall rates at the premium courses run much higher: our research puts TPC Myrtle Beach at about $150 to $250 and Caledonia at about $200 to $300 or more in peak season. So “from $70” is real, but only for a late tee time on a quiet day.
When golf-only makes sense:
- You already have a place to stay. A beach house rented by the family, a timeshare week or a friend’s condo makes the lodging part of a package pointless.
- You’re driving in. Groups from Charlotte, Raleigh, Richmond or Atlanta often find a rental house and golf-only bookings cheaper than a package, especially in summer and winter.
- You want flexibility. Golf-only rounds booked a few days ahead can be moved around the weather more easily than a prepaid package.
How to book golf-only:
- Through a package operator. Most sell golf-only packages too, and some offer multi-round discounts. One operator offered an extra 10% off every round for golfers booking three or more rounds, for play from February 1 to November 30, 2026.
- Directly with the courses. Every course takes tee times online or by phone. It’s the most flexible route, and for a foursome playing two rounds it’s usually as cheap as anything.
- Through course groups. Several courses are marketed together, such as the Waccamaw Golf Trail around Pawleys Island, whose 11 courses include Caledonia, True Blue and Pawleys Plantation, and multi-course resorts like Barefoot.
Course choice and surcharges: where the price really moves
The single biggest lever on a Myrtle Beach package price is which courses you choose. Packages are built on a base price that covers the standard courses, with a surcharge for each premium one. On most operators’ lists, the premium courses add something like $50 to $150 or more per golfer per round.
Here’s how the well-known public-access courses break down, using typical spring and fall green-fee ranges for an 18-hole round with cart, from our Myrtle Beach research:
| Course | Area | Typical spring/fall range | Package notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Caledonia Golf & Fish Club | Pawleys Island | About $200–$300+ | The premium pick; surcharge on most packages; book early for spring |
| TPC Myrtle Beach | Murrells Inlet | About $150–$250 | Premium; popular in packages |
| Tidewater | North Myrtle Beach | About $130–$200 | Upper mid-tier |
| King’s North, Myrtle Beach National | Central | About $100–$175 | A package staple |
| Pine Lakes | Central | About $100–$175 | “The Granddaddy,” open since 1927 |
| Heritage Club | Pawleys Island | About $90–$150 | Strong mid-tier value |
| Legends (Heathland, Moorland, Parkland) | Central | About $70–$140 | Value, with on-site lodging |
| Glen Dornoch | Little River | About $80–$140 | Value to mid-tier |
| Dunes Golf & Beach Club | Central | Premium, limited outside access | A private club with limited package or public times; ask early |
How to use that table when you’re building a package:
- Pick one premium course, not four. A trip with Caledonia or TPC on one day and mid-tier courses on the rest costs far less than an all-premium week and feels almost as good.
- Use the mid-tier. Courses like King’s North, Pine Lakes, Heritage Club and the Barefoot courses are what most packages are built on, and they’re consistently well kept.
- Ask for the surcharge list. Every operator has one. Compare it line by line, because one operator’s surcharge for a given course can be noticeably higher than another’s.
- Play the premium course in the morning. Early times cost more at some courses, but if you’re paying for the best course of the trip, you want it in the best light and before the afternoon storms.

Three sample package quotes, line by line
To make the ranges concrete, here are three illustrative trips, built from the 2026 calculator ranges, the course prices above and our hub’s travel budget. They’re our estimates per golfer, not real quotes, and your numbers will depend on the operator, the dates and the courses you pick.
| Per golfer | Budget: winter, 4 golfers driving in, value courses | Classic: spring, 8 golfers flying in, mid-tier plus one premium course | Premium: fall, 4 golfers flying in, top courses and oceanfront |
|---|---|---|---|
| Package: 3 nights and 4 rounds with carts | $300–$500 | $450–$800 | $800–$1,200+ |
| Flights | None | $200–$450 | $200–$450 |
| Golf bag fee | None | $90–$110 | $90–$110 |
| Gas or rental van, shared | $50–$100 | $40–$80 | $60–$120 |
| Food and drink | $150–$300 | $200–$400 | $300–$600 |
| Replays, range balls, extras | $0–$100 | $0–$150 | $50–$200 |
| Estimated total | About $500–$1,000 | About $980–$1,990 | About $1,500–$2,680+ |
Most groups that fly in land in the middle of the classic column, around $1,100 to $1,700 per golfer, which matches what our hub sees for a typical four-day trip. The two biggest swings are obvious once you see them side by side: driving instead of flying saves several hundred dollars each, and switching from a premium-course, oceanfront package to a mid-tier condo package can halve the golf bill.
Our general golf trip cost guide compares Myrtle Beach with Scottsdale, Florida and the big resorts if you’re still weighing destinations.
Myrtle Beach golf packages for different groups
The standard package (a condo, four rounds and a van) is built for a group of buddies. Other groups should tweak it:
Couples. Skip the condo. A hotel or golf resort with breakfast, two or three rounds and an oceanfront room usually suits a couple better than four rounds in three days. If one of you doesn’t play, base yourselves where there’s something else to do, such as near Broadway at the Beach or the boardwalk, and book golf-only rounds for the golfer.
Groups of eight to sixteen. This is what Myrtle Beach does best. A four-bedroom condo or two, consecutive tee times at every course, and an operator who puts it all on one invoice. Ask for a group rate, because the per-golfer price drops as the group grows: about $450 to $800 per golfer for eight and $400 to $750 for twelve or more in the 2026 calculator ranges. A team format over four rounds keeps everyone interested.
Retirees and winter golfers. Winter packages are the cheapest of the year, the courses are quiet, and highs in the 50s and 60s °F are comfortable for walking off a cart path. Many groups, including plenty of Canadians escaping their own winter, come for a week or more and play every day. Ask about weekly rates and longer-stay discounts.
Families. A rented beach house and golf-only rounds usually beat a package, because the lodging has to work for the non-golfers too. Late-afternoon rounds are cheaper and leave the morning for the beach.
Solo golfers. Packages are priced for sharing, so a single golfer pays more per head for lodging. A hotel room and golf-only tee times are often the better deal, and Myrtle Beach courses are used to pairing singles with other groups.
Ten questions to ask before you book
Ask every operator the same questions, in writing, and compare the answers:
- What exactly is the total per golfer, including taxes, fees and surcharges?
- Which courses carry a surcharge, and how much is each one?
- Are carts included at every course in the package?
- What tee times will we get? Consecutive times for the group, and roughly what time of day?
- Which lodging, exactly? The building or resort, the unit size and how many bedrooms and bathrooms.
- How far is the lodging from each course? The Grand Strand is long, and 40 minutes each morning adds up.
- What’s the deposit, and when is the balance due?
- What happens if one golfer drops out? Does the price change for the rest of the group?
- What’s the rain policy? A rain check, a credit or nothing, and does it differ by course?
- Can we add a replay round, and what does it cost?
An operator who answers all ten clearly is usually one you can trust with the rest of the trip.
When is the cheapest time to book a Myrtle Beach golf package?
Winter, from December to February, is the cheapest time for a Myrtle Beach golf package, followed by summer. Spring (March to May) and fall (September to November) are peak season, with the highest package prices and the most competition for tee times, especially around Easter and Canadian spring break weeks.
How the seasons trade off:
| Season | Weather | Package prices | Watch for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Winter (Dec–Feb) | Highs mostly in the 50s °F, some 60s | Lowest of the year | Frost delays; dormant brown Bermuda fairways unless overseeded |
| Spring (Mar–May) | Highs from the 60s to low 80s °F | Peak | Book three to six months ahead for weekends |
| Summer (Jun–Aug) | Upper 80s to low 90s °F, humid, afternoon storms | Good value | Greens aeration in early summer; play early |
| Fall (Sept–Nov) | The heat breaks in late September | Peak | Hurricane season runs to November 30 |
A few timing tricks help on price. Midweek arrivals usually cost less than weekends. Late-afternoon tee times are much cheaper at many courses, which is why golf-only rounds can start around $70. Late November and early March sit at the edge of the peak and often price like the off-season. And if you’re booking a summer package, ask each course when it aerates its greens, because a freshly punched green is miserable to putt on for a week or two.
Our guide to the best time to golf in Myrtle Beach has month-by-month rates, weather and crowd notes.
How to book a Myrtle Beach golf package, step by step
- Fix the dates and the headcount. Plan in multiples of four, because tee times are booked by foursome. Odd numbers mean a threesome or a stranger in your group.
- Choose a base. Pawleys Island and Murrells Inlet for Caledonia, True Blue and TPC; central Myrtle Beach for Myrtle Beach National, Pine Lakes and Legends; North Myrtle Beach for Barefoot and Tidewater.
- Pick the lodging type. A condo for groups, a hotel for couples, a golf resort if you’d rather walk to the first tee.
- Shortlist the courses. One premium course and three or four from the mid-tier is the sweet spot for most groups.
- Get two or three quotes for the same trip. Same dates, same lodging, same courses. Then compare them line by line: base price, surcharges, carts, taxes, replay rounds and deposit terms.
- Check the tee times. Ask for consecutive times for groups, and morning times for the premium courses.
- Pay the deposits and calendar the balance. Note the date the balance is due and the last date you can cancel without losing money. For September and October trips, look at travel insurance.
- Confirm a week out. Tee times, check-in instructions, the van rental and who’s driving.
Organizing eight golfers is its own project. Our buddies golf trip playbook covers rooming lists, collecting money and keeping the group chat useful.
Package fine print: deposits, cancellations and rain
The fine print is where package trips go wrong. Read it before you pay anything, and check these points in particular:
- Deposits. Most operators take a deposit per golfer, often non-refundable, with the balance due a few weeks before arrival.
- Dropouts. If one golfer pulls out, the condo doesn’t get cheaper. Ask whether the operator reprices the package for the remaining golfers, and who pays the difference.
- Rain. Policies on washed-out rounds vary by course and operator: a rain check, a credit, a refund or nothing. Ask before you book, not when it’s pouring.
- Changing tee times. Prepaid package times are harder to move than times you booked directly. If the forecast looks bad, call the operator early.
- Minimum stays. Some lodging requires a minimum number of nights at peak times.
- Taxes and fees. Check whether the quote includes taxes, resort fees and cart fees, and ask for the total, not the base price.
- “Free” offers. A free fourth night or a free round usually comes with conditions on dates and courses. Read them.
- Weather season. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, according to the National Hurricane Center, with the highest risk from August to October. For a fall trip, travel insurance is worth a look.
Are Myrtle Beach golf packages worth it?
For groups of eight or more playing four or five rounds, yes: packages save money and hours of booking. For a foursome playing two rounds, booking tee times directly is usually as cheap and more flexible. Packages make least sense for groups with their own lodging, or who need to move rounds for weather.
Our verdict, based on how the pricing works:
- Book a package if you’re a group of eight or more, you’re playing four or more rounds, you want the condo and the tee times on one invoice, and you’re coming in spring or fall, when the operators’ tee-time allocations help.
- Book directly if you’re a foursome playing two or three rounds, you already have lodging, you’re driving in and want to play around the weather, or you’re coming in winter or summer, when tee times are easy to find.
- Mix the two if you want one premium round the operator can’t get: book the package for the standard courses and the premium course directly.
If Myrtle Beach’s volume isn’t your style, the same coast has the opposite kind of trip. Sea Island, on the Georgia coast, keeps its courses for resort guests and sells a quieter, pricier stay; our Sea Island golf guide covers it.
And when the golf is done, the evenings take care of themselves. Myrtle Beach likes to call itself the mini golf capital of the world, and after four rounds in three days a putt-putt course with a volcano is about the right level of challenge.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a golf package in Myrtle Beach?
About $450 to $700 per golfer for three nights and four rounds with shared lodging and carts in 2026, according to the Myrtle Beach Golf package calculator. Budget packages run about $300 to $500, and premium packages with top courses and oceanfront rooms $800 to $1,200 or more.
What is the best Myrtle Beach golf package?
For most groups, the classic: three nights in a shared condo and four rounds, with one premium course such as Caledonia or TPC Myrtle Beach and the rest from the strong mid-tier, like King’s North, Pine Lakes and Heritage Club. It gives you the best course of the trip without paying premium prices every day.
Are carts included in Myrtle Beach golf packages?
Usually, yes. Almost all Myrtle Beach courses are cart golf, and package rates normally include the cart. Check each quote anyway, because a cart fee added per round over four rounds makes a real difference.
Can you get a Myrtle Beach golf package without lodging?
Yes. Golf-only packages bundle tee times, usually with carts. Rates listed online in 2026 started around $70 for a late-afternoon round at Pine Lakes and $84 at TPC Myrtle Beach, with early-morning and peak-season times costing much more.
Do Myrtle Beach golf packages include meals?
Rarely, beyond breakfast at some hotel-based packages. “All-inclusive” in Myrtle Beach usually means golf, lodging and carts in one price, not food and drink. Budget about $200 to $400 per golfer for food and drink on a four-day trip.
When is the cheapest time for a Myrtle Beach golf package?
Winter, from December to February, followed by summer. Spring and fall are peak seasons, with the highest prices. Midweek arrivals and late-afternoon tee times save money in any season.
How far in advance should you book a Myrtle Beach golf package?
Three to six months ahead for spring and fall weekends, especially in March and April, and earlier for big groups or premium courses. Winter and summer packages can often be booked a few weeks out.
How many rounds should you play on a Myrtle Beach golf trip?
Four rounds over three nights is the classic package, and some groups add a discounted afternoon replay for 36 holes in a day. Five rounds is possible, but most groups find four, with time for the beach and a long dinner, is the right pace.
Are Myrtle Beach golf packages cheaper in summer?
Yes. Summer is the second-cheapest season after winter, because the heat, humidity and afternoon storms keep many golfers away while the beaches fill with families. Play early, take the afternoon off, and ask each course when it aerates its greens, which many do in early summer.
Is it cheaper to book Myrtle Beach tee times directly?
For a foursome playing two or three rounds, often yes, and it’s more flexible. For groups of eight or more playing four or five rounds, a package usually wins on price and saves a lot of admin.
