Sean Hakes is a man who wears many hats—Colorado native, business entrepreneur, outdoor enthusiast, and passionate golf cart aficionado.

Sean’s experiences have shaped his approach to life and business, blending hard work with a thirst for adventure and a deep appreciation for the simple joys, like cruising in a golf cart.
Hailing from Colorado: Roots in the Rockies
Born and raised in Colorado, Sean grew up surrounded by the towering Rockies and expansive plains, instilling in him a love for the outdoors from an early age. The natural beauty and rugged landscapes of Colorado were more than just a backdrop—they were the playground that fostered his adventurous spirit. His time in Colorado taught him resilience, adaptability, and a connection with nature, all values that would serve him well later in life.
Professionally, Sean built a successful career in digital marketing and SEO. His skills allowed him to work with clients across the country, helping small businesses thrive in an increasingly digital world. However, his work didn’t tie him down to one place—Sean’s entrepreneurial nature allowed him the flexibility to pursue his interests and passions in a way that few others can.
Relocating to South Carolina: The Coastal Life
In recent years, Sean relocated to South Carolina, drawn by the warmer climate and the serene coastal lifestyle. Trading the mountains for sandy beaches, he embraced life on the South Carolina coast, soaking in the unique culture and charm of the Palmetto State. It was here, while living in beach communities like Myrtle Beach and Pawleys Island, that his fascination with golf carts really took root.
In these coastal communities, golf carts weren’t just for the golf course—they were a way of life. From cruising down to the beach to running local errands, golf carts became a fun, efficient, and environmentally friendly mode of transportation. Sean quickly fell in love with the versatility and convenience that golf carts offered, both as a practical tool and a way to enjoy the laid-back lifestyle that defines so many beach towns.
RVing Across America During COVID
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in 2020, Sean, like many others, faced the sudden reality of limited travel and lockdowns. But rather than let these constraints stop him, Sean saw an opportunity to explore the country in a new way—by RV. Packing up and hitting the road, he spent months traveling across the United States with his family, discovering new landscapes, and experiencing the country’s diverse cultures and communities.
Traveling by RV gave Sean a unique perspective on the vastness and beauty of the U.S. From the deserts of Arizona to the forests of the Pacific Northwest, he explored the nation’s hidden gems. And, of course, he brought his passion for golf carts along with him. In RV parks and campgrounds across the country, he found that golf carts were an indispensable part of life for many travelers. Whether it was navigating large RV parks or exploring off-the-beaten-path trails, golf carts provided both fun and practicality.
Arizona: Desert Adventures
Among the places Sean explored during his RV journey was Arizona, where the desert landscape offered a completely different type of adventure. The wide-open spaces, scenic desert roads, and rugged terrain provided the perfect setting for off-road golf cart exploration. In Arizona, Sean expanded his appreciation for golf carts, not just as a tool for cruising along beach paths, but as a vehicle capable of handling more challenging environments.
The desert heat and unique topography of Arizona added a new dimension to his understanding of how versatile golf carts can be. Whether zipping through sandy trails or navigating rocky terrain, Sean’s love for golf carts continued to grow as he realized just how adaptable these vehicles could be in a variety of settings.

What began as a simple convenience in South Carolina’s coastal towns has grown into a full-blown passion for Sean.
