According to a recent visitor survey, the Ocean Lakes Family Campground is one of the better places to RV camp in the whole U.S. Myrtle Beach’s “Grand Strand” attracts more than 14 million visitors annually and those surveyed in this poll voiced a clear preference for Ocean Lakes over other campground options in the area. The “Best of the Beach” survey results were reported in the October 25 edition of The Sun News in the “Visitor’s Voice” section.
The “Best of the Beach” honor is the latest for Ocean Lakes Family Campground which was named the 2008-2009 National “RV Park of the Year” by the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds (ARVC). It is the largest campground on the East Coast and one of the largest in the United States with over 310 acres of campsites and beach house rentals.
Right next to one of the busiest beaches year round, Ocean Lakes has a ton of events to attend and great customer service all around. Ocean Lakes Family Campground offers affordable family fun all year long, including events like The 26th Annual South Carolina Fossil Fair on October 31st from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. This event is free and open to the public. Presented by the South Carolina Fossil Association, the Fossil Fair features experts from the Smithsonian Institute’s National Museum of Natural History who will be on hand to identify fossils brought by participants.
Fossil and shell collections will be on display including shark teeth, whale bones, sand dollars, horse teeth and other unique finds. Visitors will also have the opportunity to hunt for shark teeth, make necklaces, construct a dinosaur skeleton and even learn how to recover fossils with the Smithsonian experts at a mock dig site. It is a hands-on educational event for the entire family, students and Scout Troops.
