I have been to the area over a dozen times in the past dozen years. You are getting a lot of good advice. I am a little partial to the South end of the strand. I have found great value staying in the True Blue condos. We have stayed there several times and always enjoy playing Caledonia, True Blue, Pawley's Plantation, TPC, and Heritage when staying in that area. If you want roomier condos stay at Pawley's Plantation. Should you choose to travel to Central MB or North MB don't miss Tidewater or The Dunes. I rank Myrtle Beach golf as follows: 1- Caledonia 2- The Dunes 3- Tidewater (if you catch it in great shape it could be #1) 4- Heritage (great course/great value) 5- TPC 6- Pawley's Plantation (holes 12-18 are as good as you'll find) 7- True Blue Avoid Barefoot courses. I played these when they first opened years ago, and they were really good. Conditioning has really slipped over the years, and we don't go there anymore.

Still hopeful someone can help me out. Our schedule is ever evolving. We're flying in to the Sanford (Orlando) airport on a Wednesday afternoon and considering playing a couple of rounds in Orlando on Thursday before heading to Jacksonville that evening. Definitely playing Sawgrass Stadium on Saturday, and play somewhere else later in the day. I have hookups to play Pablo Creek and Timuquana which both look appealing (probably do both in the same day). Still looking for other suggestions in JAX and now possibly in Orlando. Can anybody help?

I will be traveling with some buddies for a few days to Jacksonville in late March. We're planning on playing the Stadium Course and probably the Valley as well. What other venues (within 30-45 minutes) can anyone suggest? Are there any private courses worth pulling strings to play?
