Ocean Lakes Family Campground - HOLY GOLF CARTS!!!!!!

[losingit]

Currently staying at OLFC in Myrtle Beach. Before we came here we read that it was a big place, and can get very crowded, but I didn't realize the golf cart population would outnumber the people!
I attempted to go to the laundry facility in my pickup on Saturday to wash some bedding that got soiled due to a sick child, it took me 30 minutes to go less than half a mile just to find a parking lot full of golf carts, I was not happy. I understand why the golf carts are so popular around here, if you don't have one or rent one you are going to be very frustrated when you try to go anywhere.

Don't get me wrong, this is a nice park, with very nice amenities, nice people, and nice facilities. I just don't care for how populated it is. Just too many people and golf carts for our liking. We will probably look elsewhere next year for our family vacation.

We'll be here a few more days, maybe some of the crowd will depart after today.

Having been to Ocean Lakes 2X, I understand what you have experienced.

We will never return. They have good amenities etc. but we will continue to stay at the Travel Park in the north end. We have stayed there many times since the early 70's. Golf carts are not allowed there.

been there, I remember the golf carts. as you said part of it is your dealing with the holiday campers/crowd.

Make the best of it and enjoy the beach! :C
