About Pawleys Plantation

Jack Nicklaus opened Pawleys Plantation in 1989 on the Waccamaw Neck. A dramatic back nine runs along saltwater marsh, with holes like the par-3 13th playing over the marsh to an island-green site. The course underwent a comprehensive renovation that reopened in 2024, modernizing the layout while preserving its coastal character. Pawleys Plantation was named the Myrtle Beach Area Golf Course Owners Association 2024 Course of the Year, succeeding Rivers Edge. It has been recognized among South Carolina's Top 22 (Golf World), Top 10 on the Grand Strand (South Carolina Magazine), America's Top Courses (Zagat), Top 25 Layouts (Golf Digest), and earned 4 Stars in Best Places to Play (Fodor's). With Caledonia and True Blue, Pawleys Plantation completes the Pawleys Island public-access trio that's become a Myrtle Beach must-play weekend.
