Most people don’t know there is a campground in South Carolina that is larger than nine of our small towns. But it’s true, and not only is this campground literally the size of a small town, it also has a mile of sandy beach on the Atlantic.
Ocean Lakes Family Campground in Myrtle Beach seems to have it all.
Facebook/Ocean Lakes Family Campground And a vacation here is like bringing your home away from home (a.k.a RV or camper) to a small town where everything you need is at your fingertips. This colossal campground has a little of just about anything you’ll find in a small town - and then some things you won’t even find in a small town…
For starters, every site is only steps from the ocean.

But with all there is to see and do, that television won’t likely be on during the day.

It also has an olympic-size pool, plus a number of water slides, and a fun splash pad round out the non-beach water activities.
Craving ice cream? You’ll find that here too, which comes as no surprise.

Or, if you’re out on the beach and get hungry, this small town, er… huge campground, has its own beachfront cafe.
Ocean Lakes Family Campground The Sandy Cafe is located beachside and is sure to have something to quieten your growling tummy so you can get back to the business of relaxing on the beach.
Forget to pack something and don’t want to uproot the entire RV just to go fetch it?
Ocean Lakes Family Campground Ocean Lakes has a camp store the likes of which we promise you’ve never seen. Most camp stores have a few items scattered around a small shared space with the check-in counter. But not this campground. The camp store is 12,000 square feet and has everything from groceries to hardware, toiletries, souvenirs and gifts.
Most campgrounds organize activities throughout the year — as do small towns.

The annual event gets camping families inspired to create the best golf cart floats you’ve ever seen. If you don’t have a golf cart then you can rent one at Ocean Lakes. Just want to watch? Pull a chair out to where you campsite meets the road.
