The island
A Pawleys Island golf vacation, minus the crowds
Pawleys Island sits in Georgetown County, South Carolina, on a barrier island along the Atlantic coast. It is one of the oldest resort areas on the East Coast, and it still feels like it. Where Myrtle Beach is busy and bright, Pawleys is calm, with marsh views, plantation oaks and a tranquil atmosphere all year long.
That quiet is a big part of the appeal for golfers. The courses wind through old plantation land, rivers and marshes, so many rounds come with scenery you won’t forget. After golf, you are minutes from the beach, local seafood restaurants and shopping, which makes Pawleys a relaxed alternative to a Myrtle Beach trip.
Whether you want a villa on the course, a resort room, or an oceanfront rental, we match your stay to your tee times and quote it as one price.
