My inlaws have rented a condo for two months - February & March. They have invited DH and I to come for a long weekend while they are there. Yay!
We'll leave the kids at home (the younger two will have school, the oldest will be on spring break from University), so they'll be fine on their own.
We know the weather won't be July hot, but hey, there won't be snow, so we're all good!
Great places to eat? For the most part we'll eat at the condo and cook for ourselves, but we'll probably take the inlaws out for a nice dinner to thank them for having us. We all love seafood - any places you recommend?
SO excited - DH and I have been wanting to get away for an extended weekend, so this will be nice. It will take a full day for us to drive there, and a full day back, but we'll have 3 days there to just relax!

I was there in April with some friends and really enjoyed it. We ate at Sea Captain's and it was very nice- my favorite dining experience there. This segway tour of Huntington Beach park was my favorite outing. Sitting on the boardwalk, watching people, was fun as well. I feel like I only have the adjectives "nice" and "Fun" this morning.  |

Lee's Inlet Kitchen in Murrell's Inlet is delicious. They do close for a few weeks during the winter, so check to make sure they are open before you go.
Brookgreen Gardens is beautiful, if the weather is ok to be outside (and it should be), that would be a fun day if you like gardens. Lots of shopping options, from outlets to high end shops, and everything in between!
Just relaxing and reading and looking at the ocean is my favorite thing to do while there! Hope you have a wonderful time!

I'm not a big Myrtle Beach fan, but I do have one off-the-beaten path recommendation for you. Go to Fat Harold'sto see the state dance, the "Shag." Grab a cold beer, enjoy the beach music and watch the dancers. It will be worth the trip. |

I was going to ask the same thing as christine58. Nance's in Murrell's Inlet has the best hush puppies ever. Broadway on the beach is fun. Lots of little shops to browse in. We had a fun lunch at Senor Frogs. We went in February and lucked out that the weather was nice enough for us to sit on the beach for a few hours. Kids didn't go all the way into the water because it was still freezing but not cold enough that they wouldn't fill their buckets to build sand castles. Have fun!!! |

Check out the concert schedule at the House of Blues. It's at Barefoot Landing. It's a fun night out.

There's miniature golf on every corner!!! |

Nance's is wonderful and I agree about the best, sweet hush puppies in the world. That and a big old bucket of their steamed oysters. Fat Harold's is a wonderful place to people watch. I grew up going to Myrtle Beach area and have been going for last 30 years. It has gone downhill some in MB proper, but North Myrtle is a lot nicer, or Surfside to the south. In the summer they have dozens of fun putt-putt courses. Not sure if they will be open during the winter months. Have fun!
