Continuity gives us roots; change gives us branches, letting us stretch and grow and reach new heights. ~Pauline R. Kezer
As you drive from the Front Desk to the Resort entrance, you may not have realized that you’re driving through Deerfield Plantation – the community where Plantation Resort is located. This community stretches all the way from the Frontage Road to Highway 17 Bypass encompassing several neighborhoods in between. Plantation Resort has long played an active role in its community and is even named after it. There’s a lot going on here and you’ll notice some big changes in the neighborhood during your next visit to Plantation Resort.
Platt Boulevard Paved
Resort visitors enter the Deerfield Plantation community on Platt Boulevard while driving to Plantation Resort. Now you can enjoy a smooth pleasant ride to your condo on this freshly paved boulevard. This is such big news that we’ve dedicated an entire article to Platt Boulevard’s update, which you can read here.
Demolishing the Clubhouse
It’s the end of an era as we watch the Deer Track Golf Course Clubhouse come down after keeping watch over the fairways for 45 years. Built in 1974, the golf course was designed by J. Porter Gibson and Bob Toski. Visitors from all over enjoyed golfing here until the course closed its doors in 2006. Even after Deer Track’s closing, the Clubhouse stood as a monument to the booming hey-day of golf in Myrtle Beach. Now we watch as demolition begins on the Clubhouse. We’ll keep you up-to-date on any future new developments.
Landscaping the Traffic Circles
Continuing in the spirit of beautifying the drive into the Resort, we’ve landscaped the first traffic circle near the front desk. We’ve taken care of the second traffic circle (the one in front of the Clubhouse) for years and now it’s time for the first traffic circle to match on your drive to Plantation Resort.
Home Construction on the North and South Golf Courses
The beginnings of a new neighborhood built by D.R. Horton on part of the former North golf course.
The South course is cleared of landscape in preparation for homes to be built by Beverly Homes.
The South course has been sold to Beverly Homes and the North golf course has been sold and is being developed by D.R. Horton. You’ll notice a dramatic change in the scenery as you drive to Plantation Resort. The North course already has new homes constructed while the South course is still in the early land clearing stages. It will look very different than what you are used to seeing in the past.

My daughter in law and friends are arriving on Friday, February 16. We are using my AFVC certificate and are looking forward to our stay. Your resort has a 5 diamond rating which is way I chose your resort.
A few questions for planning purposes please:
Are there beach chairs available to borrow when we go to the beach? Are there bikes available to borrow or rent?
How close is the nearest grocery store?
Does the 2 BR villa have a slow cooker in the kitchen?
If my daughter in law arrives before I do can she check in for me? I am flying in and she is driving.
Looking forward to our stay.
Thank you for your reply.

Hope this answers all your questions!
More neighborhood homes being built around Plantation resort which is what owners were afraid of with the golf course closing years ago. Are these neighborhoods visible from the units at PR? And how many neighborhoods are in the plans on the old golf course?
Thanks!
At the moment, our visitors cannot see any construction from the Resort. We don’t know the plans for the golf course but we remain dedicated to providing a vacation oasis for those staying with us.
