I live in Myrtle Beach I really like it. But like I said in the summer time it gets crazy with the tourist and driving can be dangerous. But there’s lots to do in regards to eating shopping and entertainment. Plus, the Beach itself great Churches around here. And lot’s of really really nice plaeces to live.
Have a buddy who vacationed there with his college aged son last year. Their goal was to play at EVERY put-put golf course there.
They failed. LOL
We've driven through Myrtle Beach, saw a lot of high rise hotels... We weren't sure if it had the same small town feel as the other SC areas I mentioned (and we unfortunately didn't have the time to find out). What you described sounds nice though.
Next trip "down South", we'll definitely check out the Myrtle Beach area. :-)
