I’m in the early stages of planning a golf trip along the East Coast and could really use some advice! I’m looking for:

  • Budget-Friendly Options: What are some good resorts or courses that won’t break the bank?
  • Hidden Gems: Are there any lesser-known destinations or courses that are worth checking out?
  • Group Trip Tips: I’m organizing this for a group, including a girls golf trip, any specific recommendations for courses or accommodations that cater to groups?
  • Itineraries: If you have any suggested itineraries or must-play courses, I’d love to see them!

I’m super excited to explore some beautiful courses, and I want to make the most of our time on the greens. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, check out the New Jersey Pine Barrens area. Courses like Pine Crest Golf Club offer beautiful scenery without breaking the bank. Plus, the wildlife there adds a unique touch!

Don’t overlook the Ocean City courses in Maryland! Golfing on the coast is fantastic. The scenery at courses like Eagle’s Landing is breathtaking, but be prepared for a few tricky holes.

Bring your A-game! You’re going to need it on those breaks. But honestly, just enjoy the beautiful scenery. Golf is as much about the experience as it is about the score.

Absolutely! Enjoying the scenery is key. How about traveling options? Any recommendations for a budget-friendly way to get there?

One of my favorites is Myrtle Beach. They have a ton of courses and oftentimes bundled deals that include hotel stays. Perfect for keeping costs down!

Myrtle Beach sounds great! What’s the best time of year to visit for decent weather but lower rates?

Early spring and late fall are ideal. You’ll find fewer crowds and better prices on both courses and accommodations. Just avoid summer—it’s hot and busy!

Great to know! Do you think it’s better to rent a car or use ride-sharing services to get around the area?

A rental car can be more budget-friendly, especially if you’re playing multiple courses. Ride-sharing will add up quickly if you’re going from course to course.
