I am looking for first hand experiences with the Myrtle Beach Travel Park. I have been to the website and the usual sites for checking something like this out. I would like some inside information from those of you that have stayed there. I am attempting to get a “feel” for the campground. Are quiet hours enforced? Are the campsites arranged well? What part of the campground offers the better campsites? The location appears to be ideal as far as getting to and from points of interest and activities in the beach area. We have camped in Myrtle Beach before, but never at this campground.If someone has some pictures, that would be great also. I am always interested in pictures other than what is listed on the website.Any information will be greatly appreciated.

It's our favorite MB campground by far, mostly because we vastly prefer the location over the campgrounds to the south, and the minimal golf cart traffic. We go there at least once, usually twice, a year.I don't know whether quiet hours are "enforced" or not, but we've never had an issue with noise at night.Sites are pretty typical of the other campgrounds at MB, IMO. As to what's better--it comes down to preference. We like to be relatively close to the ocean, but not front row. The sites around the lake are nice. The wooded sites seem roomier than those close to the beach, and most of them are convenient to the pool. But it's a pretty good walk to the ocean.

The best in MB as far as we are concerned. Its quiet and the fact that transient sites can't have golf carts makes it ladyed back. You can't go wrong!

It's the only place in MB that we camp. In addition to the above comments they have a security guard at the gate and motorcycles must park outside the gate.The sites aren't huge but you get a small shelter over your picnic table at each site if you're in the area between the pools and the beach.They get busy in the summer but we still enjoy it. Try the Breakfast by the Sea restaurant in the CG for all you can eat fish on Friday nights.

We have visited MBTP each year for the last three years. Top notch!!There is a site for all your needs, whether oceanfront, lakefront,wooded or in between. Both heated and non-heated pools and the lazy river is a relaxing days-end . Always quiet except for maybe Easter weekend. Close enough to restaurant row, exceptional golfing and great seafood. WalMart and malls nearby. Calabash NC just a few minutes away. We are returning again near the end of April. Oh, and did I mention the beach? Awesome!!!Bill and Denise

Agree that it is the best CG in MB area. Sites are maybe just a little larger than most and those in the wooded area seem just a "smidge" wider. Don't think any CG down here really enforces stated "quiet hours" but the clientele at MBTP seems to be just a bit more respectful than the huge ocean front CG's farther south. Maybe because it's a bit smaller than those, maybe it's because only permanent campers can use golf carts, maybe because of other issues, but it seems a bit more 'sane' here than at others. It does depend on how close you want to be to the ocean which areas are the "best". Wherever you go to camp in this area from April through September, its a zoo!!! So many families love MB as a vacation destination. If quietness and the enforcement of rules matters would never suggest one visit a CG down here from mid May through the rest of the month, and definitely not over Memorial Day weekend. Motorcycles gather for two huge rallies and while its fun it is rowdy! Might want to check www.rvparkreviews.com for more comments from those who have been there.

I understand that they "close" the gates to this park roughly around midnight. Does this mean that you can not get back in after this time, or is it just a matter of security letting you in? I was thinking about this because if you go to one of the shows, and then stop for ice cream, it will be after midnight.

The cabins our friends rented about 7 years ago were modulars on blocks with decks. They now also rent permanent travel trailers. I think they were about 30 feet.

The one I was in was clean and in good repair.

We have been going to this park for 41 years! We used to pay $4.50 for an oceanfront site with hookups. We have stayed at a couple of the other parks, but this is by far our favorite.

Some trips we spend a few days at the S.P at the south end just to do things in that vicinity - then we move to the M.B.T.P. for the remainder of our trip. The location is perfect - easy drive to everything.

We particularly like the fact there are no golf carts tearing around.

MBTP is very dog friendly. We always travel with our two, and you'll see lots of other dogs there. As the above poster said, just the basic usual (common sense) dog rules.

Dog friendly, typical rules about cleaning up after your pet, keep on a leash, and not allowed in buildings.

In the summer dogs aren't allowed on the beach between 8am and 5pm.

We didn't have our dogs there but there were plenty in the cg and it seemed very dog friendly. I believe during at least peak season the hours dogs can be on the beach are restricted but that's about it. I was going to remind you how hot it gets there but since you are from the south already you understand heat!

I am getting a lot of good information here, and I appreciate it. One thing that has not been mentioned is how dog friendly this campground is. I almost always travel with our dog. I know they state they are “pet friendly” on the website.

I ask this because I have been to some places that say they are pet friendly, but they have extreme restrictions. Dogs are only allowed to camp with you in certain parts of the campground and it is not usually a premium area. I have been to a place like this, and I did not know about the additional restrictioins until I arrived.
