The Myrtle Beach National (MBN) Company, one of the Myrtle Beach area's oldest and largest golf course ownership/management companies, announced today that it has acquired Pawleys Plantation Golf Club effective immediately. Pawleys Plantation opened in 1988 and is a Jack Nicklaus designed golf course. The acquisition also includes all resort amenities and real estate contained on the property.
Awarded 4 stars by Golf Digest in its 2008 "Best Places to Play Guide," Pawleys Plantation has been rated among the top 25 best golf courses in South Carolina by GOLF Magazine, Golf World and the South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel. Pawleys Plantation is also home to the Ritson-Sole Golf School, rated in 2008 by GOLF magazine as one of the "Top 25 Golf Schools in America." The 18-hole course is not only challenging, but also very scenic as many holes wind through Lowcountry tidal marshes and live oaks. Pawleys Plantation has also been judged as one of the top meeting facilities in the Southeast by ConventionSouth magazine.
"Pawleys Plantation is by far one of the finest properties in the Myrtle Beach area and boasts an outstanding championship golf course," said Jim Woodring, vice president of golf operations and marketing for the Myrtle Beach National Company. "The acquisition of this unique and scenic property just adds to the quality of the Myrtle Beach National Company's portfolio and we look forward to offering all of the outstanding amenities and golf facilities for everyone to experience for years to come."
MBN will also maintain the property's dining and convention facilities including three restaurants and more than 10,000 square feet of meeting space highlighted by the Plantation Ballroom. The company will also serve as rental manager for the more than 100 villas located at Pawleys Plantation.
With the addition of the Pawleys Plantation, the Myrtle Beach National Company now owns and/or manages 15 golf courses on the Grand Strand, including three 27-hole facilities; Aberdeen Country Club; King's North at Myrtle Beach National; SouthCreek at Myrtle Beach National and the West Course at Myrtle Beach National; Waterway Hills Golf Club; Long Bay Golf Club; Litchfield Golf Club; River Club; Willbrook Plantation; Blackmoor Golf Club; Wachesaw Plantation East; Wild Wing Plantation and Tradition Golf Club.
