Whispering Pines Golf Course
900 Harrelson Boulevard
OVERVIEW
Whispering Pines Golf Course is a spectacular gem right in the heart of the City of Myrtle Beach, across from Myrtle Beach International Airport on Harrelson Boulevard. The 18-hole course originally was part of the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, but the city acquired it when the base closed in 1993. The course is owned by the City of Myrtle Beach, thanks to the federal Lands-to-Parks program following Air Force Base Closure.

Local residents of Horry, Georgetown and Brunswick Counties can play at Whispering Pines for just $32 per round (plus tax), including the use of a cart! For more information, visit the Whispering Pines Golf Course website or send an email to playwhisperingpinesgolf@gmail.com.
AIR FORCE BASE HISTORICAL SIGNAGE
The Myrtle Beach Air Force Base operated until 1993 and was home to the 354th Fighter Day Wing/Tactical Fighter Wing. The Base deployed squadrons to Europe, Southeast Asia and the Middle East, with major service in Germany, Cuba, Lebanon, Vietnam and the Persian Gulf. To commemorate the Air Force Base site, historical signagge was added in 2016. Tee markers feature the squadron emblems, while signs recount the biographies of the wing commanders who served the Base. The golf course unveiled 27 new signs. A sign will mark each of the 18 holes along the course. Scorecards also have been redesigned with the Base history in mind.
