myrtle-Man-O-War-Island-April13

Mystical Golf – owner and operator of The Witch, Man-O-War and The Wizard courses in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina – has two summer stay-and-play packages.

From June 1 to Sept. 9, the three-day Gold Package starts at US$96 (per person, per day, taxes included) and includes three rounds with cart on each of The Witch, The Wizard and Man-O-War; one complimentary round (course selection during booking process); three night’s lodging in three-bedroom golf villas (four beds); complimentary iHOP breakfast daily (available 24 hours per day); free steak dinner at Logan’s Roadhouse (includes non-alcoholic beverages, taxes); lunch and two beers free at the course each day; free daily range balls; $15 gift card toward a golf shirt; instant replay round for cart fee only; and extra night stays available at moderate cost per person.

Over the same time frame, the Silver Package starts at US$86 (per person, per day, taxes included) and features all the attributes of the Gold Package, except the complimentary round, daily breakfast and steak dinner. Both stay-and-plays do offer one complimentary golfer for booked groups of 20 or more players.

The Witch sits on 500 acres of tranquil cypress groves and wetlands teeming with flora and fauna. Tactical play is rewarded on the par-71, 6,702-yard layout. With 4,000 feet of bridges winding through swamps (front nine) and rolling hills (back nine), golfers may spy cranes, bald eagles, alligators and black bears.

Man-O-War is revered for its back-to-back island greens and water features touching every hole. With a commanding 141 slope rating, the par-72, 6,967-yard layout is offset by straight-forward shots and bent-grass greens.

Reminiscent of classic, wind-swept links courses in Scotland and Ireland, The Wizard presents deep bunkers, mound-framed fairways and dramatic elevation changes. Trademark stone bridges and an Old-World, castle-style clubhouse add character to the par-72, 6,721-yard shot-maker’s course.
