Everywhere in the resort was clean and well maintained. The pool was very clean. While swimming an employee went around and offered free ice creams sandwiches to the guests. Bad time for me to be on a diet. This is the third annual visit to the Myrtle Beach KOA and I hope to come back soon.

When I walked into the cabin I rented it was like an oven. I turned both heaters off and opened the…read morewindows I don't know what the deal with that was. The TV at the KOA sucks big time. There was two big controllers I couldn't figure out why they weren't working so they had a guy come and look. Apparently there was a third controller in the bedroom that I didn't see that turn the TV on. So if you have accounts like Netflix or Amazon prime you can log into them and watch stuff. There wasn't a whole Lot of channels, there was Will and Grace and save by the bell. So I watch saved by the bell. But apparently if somebody logged into your TV somehow because it kept glitching out and then it says that this person logged into my TV about 6 times. Then it would exit out everything. The TV would constantly freeze and not do anything, will post video on yelp of this. If you're watching for more than an hour it will just turn off by itself. The Wi-Fi didn't work at all while I was there. I tried on three separate devices and the Wi-Fi didn't even show up. I don't know why they would clean the mini fridge with simple green or something similar. You open it and I got a big wiff of simple green. I had an expensive cheesecake in there, pasta and Starbucks. The next day I went to eat it and the cheesecake tasted like cleaner... I had to throw everything away... $70 worth of food in the trash. You're not supposed to use those kind of cleaners in fridges. Dog park- the dog park was OK but it would be nice to have some grass instead of just dirt and mud. Overall this day was pretty quiet other than typical traffic and motorcycles

Myrtle Beach State Park is a fantastic park, it is one of sixteen SC State Parks built by the…read moreCivilian Conservation Corps. Opened in 1936 it was the first park to open in the system.

It gets a little confusing because apparently part of the campground has been sold to Carolina Shores. However, the guest houses are a different story. We've stayed twice in a "dog friendly" rental. We will NOT do it again. When we got there (in the pouring rain) the smell of disinfectant was overpowering. We had to open all the windows. Here is what we observed: 1. Frying pans are disgusting. Teflon was so scratched you could see silver. 2. Two ice trays but nothing to put ice in. We used the largest pan. 3. 2 small saucepans. 4. No rugs in bathroom and no handicap bars. Very slippery getting out of shower. (We bought rugs). 5. No rug front door (inside or out). (Unpacked in the pouring rain) 6. Smoke alarm went off on the 13th with nothing cooking. Went off again. Repair came and they found they were missing a smoke detector in the bedroom. They fixed the damaged smoke detector still no smoke detector in the third bedroom that we were using. 7. Bathroom sink didn't drain correctly. Had to keep turning the water off and on. 8. Nightstand not near the bed...rooms are too small. Mattress is hard as a rock and noisy. 9. They give you a mop (you have to clean the place before you leave to get security deposit back) but there is no bucket or anything to hold water to use the mop. I called the office and they told me to use the kitchen sink. 10. Refrigerator has rust stains all over the left side. Kitchen sink faucet is dirty at the bottom but you can't clean it. 11. Pulled the chain on the fan and it came off, 12. Lamp in bedroom two is so wobbly the shade fell off. 13. No baking sheets...nothing to bake anything on. 14. If you do find a way to bake something...no potholders. 15. One wineglass....No corkscrew to open wine. 16. The stove top. None of the "coils" would lay flat. We had to prop the pan up with a box. We could have spent much less by staying in an Air BNB which we will do in the future. Best advice, be ready to head to Walmart to get everything you will need (which will be a lot).

Very hard review due to the mixed feelings I have about this place. My first impression was over…read morethe phone when I asked about check in time I was told it is 3pm and if you want to check in before it is an additional 25 dollar fee, seriously? yes even if the site is available, ok so what do I do if my GPS takes me there and arrive at 2:40 and she said you still have to pay the 25 dollar fee or you can wait at a nearby Walmart. Gave me the impression that is not a customer friendly campground. I wasn't given the discount because I didn't ask for it, no refunds after the site has been reserved, no credits either. Upon arrival we were waiting to be checked in behind a Class A rig by the gate house and due to the size of the Class A I could not read the tiny sign indicating that if there was nobody at the gate to come inside, finally when that rig moved I realized I had to go inside, another 5 or six minutes wasted after 3pm no big deal but it adds up to my initial disconformity. The place is huge! I have never been to a campground with over 1000 sites not one hundred but one thousand! Very hard water but that is not their fault, city water. Got to our site and it looks ok but but but it is not concrete and it is not gravel, it is a combination of dirt sand and leaves. That tells me the site may have been vacant for several days and the 25 dollar fee is not even justified because I am not rushing employees to clean up the site that just became available the day of my arrival. Dirt and sand, no problem as long as there is no rain because I brought my 14 X 14 rug but guess what it rained all day the day before our departure and it was a bit of a mess even if we take our shoes off inside the coach. We didn't partake in any of the amenities available like the water park and the corn hole etc because of the convention we were attending here and BTW the facility we were given was very nice to accommodate about 80 plus of us. I take one star for the fact that my site wasn't quite level and for the dirt, it is not even gravel for goodness sake. I wouldn't call it a resort unless every site was concrete Would I come back? Yes just because the beach right there a few feet from the sites that are closest to the Information Center where we gather every day for our conference. It turns out they give a discount but they won't offer it to you unless you ASK for it and because I didn't ask at the time I booked they refused to refund because it is run by a corporation with dozens and tens of dozens of employees. Inclined to take two stars but because I had a great time with our new friends at the convention I am leaving this place very happy and wishing to come back when it is not raining ALL DAY with a bloody mess on my shoes with all the dirt and sand. Water park inside for the youngins but the dirt and sand prevents me from calling a five star resort but a four star campground

But not our idea of family friendly - yes there are lots of things to do like beach, Putt/putt and arcade (extra $) but for relaxing, walking or riding bikes it's terrible due to heavy traffic of constant golf carts and vehicles.

Best. Experience. Ever!…read more We did the original Escape River Island challenge. I can't even begin to explain how great of an experience we had. You start out by leisurely kayaking 1/2 mile down a river. They have double and single open kayaks. You do step in the water to get in, so wear appropriate shoes! When you get to the wooded challenge location, the guide gives you directions and tells you what to expect. Our team of three were the only ones competing so we were racing against the clock rather than other teams. We completed six different challenges (some physical, some mental). It definitely gave off escape room/Survivor/MTV The Challenge vibes. The owner Jeff and our guide Noah were both very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and the overall experience. After unlocking our kayaks in the last challenge, it was a kayak race back to the finish line! My only complaint is they don't have a second challenge that we could sign up and do tomorrow! So so fun. Couldn't recommend more.

Staff was also super friendly and helpful :) There are a variety of rentals to choose from, not just surf boards. They have skim boards, paddle boards, bikes and even wet suits! All at a reasonable price. Me and my husband rented a skim board one day, which was $20 for 24hrs and a surf board the next, which was $25 for 24 hours. Inside the store you will find a variety of clothing, shoes, sandals, sunglasses, bags and my favorite....carver decks for all the long boarders out there. Private surf lessons are available, along with paddle board tours and lessons. Overall this a great place to check out whether you are a beginner or expert and looking for a good place to rent while on vacation. Also a nice place to visit if are in the market for some cute beachwear or a new set of flip flops!
