Freedom Travel - Golf Trip to Myrtle Beach
Visited the local flea market and of course the ice cream shops, we spent the rest of the day shopping at most of the golf stores on the main street. We checked in to our rooms then proceeded to the nearest restaurant for some seafood and cold drinks. We travelled for three hours or so and arrived at our hotel around noon. Got packed and was on the road by sunrise, next morning we all had an excellent breakfast. The group had a late snack and we went to bed around eleven. We arrived at around eight o'clock in the evening and rented a couple of rooms at the Inn. The variety of sights and stores was excellent everywhere we stopped to rest. Also there are many historic sights to visit if you are so inclined to do some sightseeing. I always try to get a better deal at these places because of the economy and the opportunity to deal directly with the owner. They can be a little high, but watch out for some of the prices that are on the merchandise, i found the antique stores excellent places to find unique gifts. Maybe longer considering that we stopped at restaurants all along the way to sample different foods, from Ottawa took eighteen hours total. The drive down to S.C. My first time visit to what I will call golf paradise will never be forgotten.
So you best hope that your putter is working well, the greens are huge, one of the challenges of playing these courses is the size of the greens. A real beautiful place to play golf, hundreds of birds everywhere and great views everywhere. And some birds I have never seen before, falcons, owls, storks, canada geese. So many different species of birds, the wildlife in this area is remarkable. You have six choices of different golf courses to play on, depending on the skill of the golfer, the other four courses vary from extremely difficult to easy. With large chipping areas to recover from, there are table top greens that are ten on the stimpmeter. With burns running across the fairways hidden from the unaware golfer teeing off, another is links style with no trees and very large bunkers. Trees and water, one is parkland style, each course different than the other, this facility has six courses on one property. At Legends golf course. Seven a.m, we had an early tee off time.
When you just want to relax and enjoy the view, of course there is the ocean to enjoy as well. My golfing soul loves being there, i'll have to return someday to that special place. You can have a good round and a great day, remember that if you can maintain a level temper and be patient. Focused in on the game and a great pace of play with no waiting at all, this is when you really get to enjoy and play real good golf. Sometimes I find there is only a dozen or so golfers on the course that you are playing on, the real nice thing about these resort courses is that they are usually not too busy. At any skill level, and the amount of golf is enough for anyone, plenty of golf stores to check out. To first rate service at all of the other courses and restaurants as well, bunkers cleaned and raked, all the fairways cut every day, the condition of the golf course was amazing. We played a different course each day for the ten days we were there. Besides that is why I was there, i kept playing of course because I' m a golf nut. Some of us golfers went on and played another nine holes after the full eighteen we just played.
