...Every year, we hit Chuck's Steak House for dinner on the final night. Highly recommended. They're right on US 17. And on a table by the front door, they had a huge fish bowl full of golf tees with "Chuck's Steak House" printed on them. I still have a few left.

Odd man out...we stayed once last summer for 4 nights. It was a neat thing to experience ONCE. Otherwise, I didn't buy a camper to feel like I was in the city...I bought it to get out of the city.
Myrtle Beach, in general, feels like the Walmart of beaches.

Here in SC beer, wine, can be sold just about anywhere, but not anytime. Counties/Towns have to approve Sunday beer or wine sales. Liquor stores can sell liquor, wine, and mixers. Liquor stores have state set hours, closed on Sunday's, and have limitations in regards to locations relative to schools and churches. There are many beverage stores that have two sides ( and two doors) one for beer and wine sales and one for liquor.

Didn't want to hijack the previous thread, but I did want to pop a quick review at the end of our stay here.
First of all, the place is huge. The sites are a mix of back-ins, pulls throughs, sand and grass, and concrete. There are also a bunch of cottages. All together there are close to 900 sites, and even off season the occupancy rate seems to be about 65%. It's hard to say because the maintenance staff plays some kind or musical chairs game with empty sites and the trailers they store for the winter, even thought there's a storage lot across the street. Also, one entire section is closed for the construction of a water park, which may explain the apparent occupancy rate. But there's no way around it, the place is big.
Everything you need is either on the property or within biking distance. On site there are several bath houses, a small store, laundry, a cafe type place to eat, golf cart rentals, and RV repair service
There's a Walmart grocery across the boulevard, a super Walmart a mile away. There's a Camping World a mile away, and mobile service from Carolina RV. Enterprise car rental in Myrtle (not the airport) has pick up service right to your site.
There's a full liquor store about a mile south on business route 17 (something funky about SC liquor laws - beer and cigarettes are in a separate store from wine and liquor), and restaurant row north on Bus 17. We can recommend the Noizy Oyster for seafood. Get the steam bucket for 1 and an order of mussels.
Our site was 1 row back from the Atlantic Ocean beach.
It just doesn't get any better.
No back-in spots that I have seen. All are pull- thru.

Are they putting the water park between Ocean Lakes and Pirateland? I remember when the original amusement park was open. When I was a kid it had an entrance from Pirateland across a bridge.
Glad you enjoyed it. Some of my fondest childhood memories are from Pirateland and Ocean Lakes. We'd go down there every year in our '76 Winnebago Brave. Someday I'd like to get back down there, ideally in my RV.

Pirateland is NOT beside Ocean Lakes. Lake wood, and Pirateland are beside each other. OL is down the beach couple hundred yards from them.
