Best Winter Golf Destinations

Golf can be a year-round sport. It just depends on where you go. Here in the US, southern states like Florida, Arizona and South Carolina have mild winters; making them ideal for play. If you’re looking for the best winter golf destinations in the US, look no further than these three states.

Best Winter Golf Destinations

Florida

It comes as no surprise that many of the professional golfers have homes in Florida. In addition to the mild winters, there’s also plenty of sunshine from December to February. Shoot a round at Disney’s Magnolia Golf Course where beginner golfers can benefit from elevated tees and wider fairways. Even the little ones will find this course amusing with Mickey Mouse golf carts and character-designed hazards. Green fees range from $39 up to $99 per person on peak times for resort guests and includes a cart and GPS.

Further south, challenge yourself with tour courses such as PGA Village in Port St. Lucie or the Jack Nicklaus-designed course, Hammock Creek in Palm City. Staying in Miami? Book a slot at Turnberry Isle where you can choose from two championship courses that are frequent hosts to PGA and LPGA tour events.

South Carolina

Excluding Florida, it’s very likely that South Carolina holds the baton for the best winter golf destinations thanks largely to Myrtle Beach. A golfers paradise, the city itself contains over 100 courses, many of which are designed by tour players. On such place is Barefoot Resort which offers four 18-hole courses to choose from, each varying in type. The resort offers a number of all-inclusive golf packages from two nights to weeklong stays.

Arizona

Out on the western part of the country, many golfers head to Arizona. This largely desert oasis has a number of great spots for golf. The first city that comes to mind, as one of the best winter golf destinations, is Scottsdale. It lies just 30 miles east of Phoenix and boasts an average of 300 days of sunshine. Like Myrtle Beach, the city has over 100+ golf courses and many feature incredible views of the surrounding desert valleys. Some of the most popular courses include Pinnacle and Monument course at Troon North and the Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale.
