Seasons at Prince Creek West, Murrells Inlet

Seasons at Prince Creek West is widely considered the premier gated 55+ community in Murrells Inlet — and one of the finest active adult communities in all of coastal South Carolina. For buyers who want a complete, full-service retirement lifestyle in a private, secure, upscale setting near the MarshWalk, the ocean, and world-class golf, Seasons delivers on every point. Located at the south end of Murrells Inlet within the larger 2,700-acre Prince Creek West master-planned community, Seasons consists of 460 single-family homes built between 2004 and 2017. The community features an extraordinary amenity package centered around a 29,000–30,000 sq ft grand clubhouse that opened in 2013 — one of the largest and most complete in any 55+ community on the Grand Strand. The HOA fee — recently reduced as of early 2025 — covers an exceptionally comprehensive set of services: internet, trash, lawn care, irrigation, fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools with year-round water aerobics, Jacuzzi, bocce ball, shuffleboard, tennis and pickleball courts, a full-time on-site Lifestyle Director, and gated community access with security monitoring. For many buyers, the value calculation on the Seasons HOA is highly favorable compared to paying separately for internet, lawn care, and gym membership.

 

Seasons' 29,000–30,000 sq ft grand clubhouse is the social center of the community and one of the most impressive in the Myrtle Beach 55+ market. The clubhouse features a ballroom, card room, media room, game room with billiards and a wet bar, library, computer center, arts and crafts studio, and men's and women's saunas. The indoor pool with year-round water aerobics programming is a resident favorite — particularly in winter months. The outdoor pool, tennis courts, bocce ball, shuffleboard, and walking and biking trails round out the exterior amenity package. A full-time Lifestyle Director coordinates the social calendar throughout the year.

 

The Tournament Players Club (TPC) Myrtle Beach Golf Course directly borders Seasons at Prince Creek West — and it is the only PGA Tour facility in South Carolina. Residents enjoy golf cart access to TPC for both world-class golf and fine dining at the TPC restaurant. Two public boat ramps near the community provide easy waterway and ocean access for fishing and boating. This combination of PGA golf and boating access in a gated 55+ community is unique on the Grand Strand.

 

Seasons offers 10 floor plans across two architectural series — the Majestic Series and the Phoenician Series. The Majestic Series features five floor plans with 2 bedrooms and a den. The Phoenician Series offers larger plans with up to 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, ranging from 1,600 to 2,900 sq ft. All homes include 2-car garages, screened porches, front porches, elegantly landscaped lots with designer windows for natural light, and all the features buyers expect in this price range: granite counters, hardwood floors, tiled showers, and open-concept living. Architectural styles range from modern Craftsman to bungalow.

 

Living in Seasons means living in Murrells Inlet — the Seafood Capital of South Carolina. The famous MarshWalk, a waterfront boardwalk lined with award-winning seafood restaurants and live music venues, is just minutes away. Huntington Beach State Park, Brookgreen Gardens, Garden City Beach, and Surfside Beach are all within 15–20 minutes. Myrtle Beach's entertainment corridor is 10 miles north. And the Myrtle Beach airport is approximately 15 minutes away — important for residents who travel frequently or have family visiting from the Northeast.
