The Legends Resort in MB is a great place to saty during a MB golf trip. There are three courses on site at the Legends Resort: Heathland, Moorland and Parkland. I would not put them in my top 5 MB courses, but definitely in the top 20 (out of 100 courses there). They are a great value as the green fees are lower than the other top MB courses. My favorite of the three is Moorland, followed closely by Heathland. Moorland is a PB Dye course and has a lot of interesting features. It's not a course for high handoica[ppers, but fine for mid  and low cappers. Heathland is  Tom Doak course and is the easist of the three. Legends also operates two very good courses not on site. Heritage is a beautiful "Low Countryt" style layout abourt 30 minutes to the south and Oyster Bay is a fun Marshland course locaated about 30 minutes to the North. All 5 courses are worth playing and you can get great packages with low prices for lodging, accomodations, breakfast and lunch. The condos at legends are nice, spacious and clean but not luxurious. They have a huge practice area on site that is lit at night. They also have a pub oin site which has decent food and friendly ambiance. The only negative about Legends is that becayuse they have such good deals the courses are croded during peak season and have slow pace of play sometimes making it difficult to get in 36 holes a day. I'd suggest either calling legenbds directly or booking a pacjkage through Brian Noblin at Myrtle Beach Golf Desk. You can find Brian's site on line. He is reputable, provides great service and prices.

Here are links to my photos of the Legends courses:

Is March a good time to go to MB? Too early? Busy? Better values?

I think March is a great time to go to MB for golf, especially if you are from north of their and it's still too cold to play at home. The weather is better in April and May, but the courses are less crowded in March. In March you can have a morning frost delay once in a while, but the temps are uslyy in theb 40's at dawn and hit the mid 60's at noon. Perfect golf weather. Prime season (and highest green fees usually begins the day after we move the clocks ahead, so I often go the week before that (first 10 days of March).  You can get better values in Summer and Winter, but the Summer is very hot and humid and MB is crowded with beach-goers. Not the best time for golf unless you play very early in the morning. Winter can get pretty chilly in MB but golf is at bargain prices.
