What To Know When Planning A Myrtle Beach Golf Package
So, you're trying to put together a Myrtle Beach golf package. With almost 100 golf courses and thousands of lodging options, the whole process can be pretty intimidating.
Using a golf package company can really help you pull it all together, but when you start looking for a packager you'll find there are hundreds of companies providing this service.
Here are some things to keep in mind when you start working with a golf director at a package company.
1. Watch For Hidden Fees - Many Myrtle Beach golf packagers will quote a price that does not include all taxes and fees. Make sure you know if the price includes greens fees, cart fees, resort fees, taxes, and surcharges. Cart fees are around $25 per person per round, so if they are not included, you can expect to shell out a significant amount of money when you get to the course. Presently, lodging taxes are 11%. Find out if there are additional resort fees that will have to be paid when you check-out.
2. Driving Times - Have a good idea where your lodging is in relation to the courses you are playing. If you have limits on how far you are willing to drive each day, be sure to let your package company know.
3. Course Conditions - A knowledgeable golf director will have a good idea of which courses are typically in good condition. Conditions can go downhill pretty quickly at times, but someone who plays the courses and keeps in touch with the market will have a good idea about which courses are having problems, and which courses are in good shape. Also, Myrtle Beach area courses typically aerate their greens in the Spring and Fall, and they "over seed" the fairways in the Fall. Ask your golf director if the courses you want to play will be doing maintenance during the time you are planning to be in Myrtle Beach.
4. Best Deals - A well planned golf package will save you a good bit of money. A knowledgeable golf director will help you find the best values, and steer you away from the bad deals. Of course, this will depend on the information you provide when planning the trip. If you are fixed on your courses, your dates, and your lodging, you should still be able to save some money. But, if you are flexible in some of these areas, you should be able to get a good deal.
At Golf Packages of the Carolinas, we pride ourselves on our ability to provide our customers with the best value, the best advice and the best service. You will not be charged any extra fees after you book your package.
