My neighbors have a house there. They call it "the Redneck Riviera"
Though they mean it in an endearing way

.We're actually staying in Ocean Isle Beach NC, just flying into Myrtle Beach, so maybe the exposure will be minimal.

I always thought the Redneck Riviera was from the Fla. panhandle over to Biloxi, Miss.--the North coast of the Gulf of Mexico. S.C. had nothing to do with it. Seems there's some nickname creep happening. Always knew Myrtle as the "Grand Strand" and traditionally much more highbrow than the "Riveria." But hey, I'm old.

Ocean isle is nice! Myrtle beach isn’t really that bad. It’s just too busy for me with too many people. If you want future vacation locations that an are peaceful, check out oak island, edisto island, harbor island and fripp island.We're actually staying in Ocean Isle Beach NC, just flying into Myrtle Beach, so maybe the exposure will be minimal.
We're staying in Ocean Isle because the company my husband works for has a resort there that is free for employees. We just have to pay to get there.Ocean isle is nice!

I spent a week on Pawleys Island about 10 years ago at a B and B called the Pelican Inn… one of my all time favorites. If you have a car, you’re not far from Savannah, Ga, which is another favorite of mine. Have fun!

I've been to Oakracoke Island and the bar there that has like 200 kinds of beers (was a lot at the time anyway). Thought it was a cool place but the fact it's prone to being a speed bump for coastal storms...don't think I'd want to live there
