Baecation – Myrtle Beach, SC

Disclaimer: The world is hurting right now due to COVID-19 and I hope this post allows you to smile if only for a moment and gives you something to think about when everything calms down.
It’s been a very LONG time since Cleveland and I have had the chance to getaway. We love it but with managing 7 kids that’s nearly impossible. We shared a hearty laugh the other day when we realized we have not had a date night in over a year! YIKES! So, I was extremely excited about this hosted stay that we were offered.
We stayed with You Are Where I Go rentals at their Myrtle Beach, SC location and loved it. It’s perfect for a quick getaway if you’re local or needing a place to stay when you head to the beach. We have not been to Myrtle Beach in years so this was definitely a treat. Sometimes we forget that our own state has these beautiful hidden treasures!
Myrtle Beach, SC is roughly 2.5 hours from Columbia, SC and one of our most known beaches. You can swim, shop, and tour some really neat places. This area seems to be most popular during the summer; great tourist spot.
The cottage is beautifully decorated with a warm and cozy feel. It’s perfect when you want the amenities of home. The house has a very open layout; beautiful outside deck and open french style doors. Two bedrooms one queen size bed and the other bunkbeds; perfect for bringing kids. They also have beach umbrellas for your use. This location does have a stove top and refrigerator so if you’re going to stay for a few days then you can cook. This location is also pet friendly which is perfect for us because we needed to bring the dog, Jax! The space can accommodate 5 but we opted to leave the kiddos at home. The beach is within walking distance which is perfect, no need to move your car, yay!
When I’m going away for an extended stay I like to stay in a house verses a hotel so that I can enjoy the comforts of home and my children get run around without having to worry about disrupting other guests.
If you’re not in the mood to cook, there are tons of options around. We wanted to check out the Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament, since neither of us have been and it something fun to do to get out of the house. Unfortunately, we decided to skip this option due to the number of people that fit in their stadium. Cleve loves seafood and there are a lot of seafood buffets around but I’m not a huge fan of them, so I searched and searched and we ended up at the Lobster House, the food was great. You get large portions for a fairly decent price. It is an old place and not super fancy so if that’s what you’re looking for then skip it but if you don’t mind go get some great seafood.
So, if you’re ever in town be sure to check with You Are Where I Go for your lodging needs. It was a pleasure working with this company.
