My grandparents are taking their grandchildren anywhere in the country on their sixteenth birthday? GOLF?

Question

I want to go golfing for about 3 days, what is the best group of golf courses at one location in the country?

Answer 1

I am going to second the Pebble Beach and Bandon suggestions.  I don't think there are any other areas that have three or more top 100 courses in such small geographic areas.  For both of these areas, you can play all the courses without changing hotels.

Pebble has been around forever, so it has history.  BUT it has crowds, "pressure" to keep up, etc.  Bandon is newer and was built around a pure golf experience.  I live in the SF Bay Area and I dream of a few days in Bandon.

Answer 2

There is not 1 Top 100 golf course in Myrtle Beach as rated by Golf Digest.

If you want quality, I would say,

Pebble Beach - Spyglass, Spanish Bay

Bandon Dunes - Pacific Dunes and Bandon Trails

Pinehurst

Kohler, WI  Whistling Straits

Las Vegas - Shadow Creek, Cascata

Palm Desert

San Diego - Torrey Pines

Just about anywhere in Florida

Answer 3

Scotland or Ireland. My Uncle played there a few times. I was invited to a tournament in scotland but i cant go. if u want sumwhere in us try pinehurst im going there in july.

Answer 4

Myrtle Beach, SC is the golfing capital of the world.  The Myrtle Beach area has one of the largest numbers of golf course in the world, over 80 courses.  Lots of great courses, several ProSignature courses including John Daly's and Greg Normans courses.
