About the North Myrtle Beach Area

South Carolina’s Grand Strand stretches 60 miles from Little River to Georgetown and is one of the most popular tourist destinations.  The Grand Strand has become a major tourist attraction along the Southeastern coast, with its primary city, Myrtle Beach, attracting over ten million visitors each season. It is home to numerous restaurants and theme parks, making it popular among college students on spring break, families all summer long and snowbirds in the winter.

North Myrtle Beach formed in 1968 from the merger of several beach communities consisting of Cherry Grove Beach, Tilghman Beach, Ocean Drive Beach, and Crescent Beach & Windy Hill

The main vacation areas along the Grand Strand are:


Little River, SC
Little River
is a quaint fishing village and considered the oldest towns along the Grand Strand.  Located along the Intracoastal Waterway it is best known for deep-sea fishing, charter boats & commercial fishing. There are many places to dine, shop and Las-Vegas style casino gambling boats. Little River is also home to the Blue Crab Festival held every May on the waterfront.

Cherry Grove Beach

is at the very northern end of North Myrtle Beach. Cherry Grove is your place to relax. It’s known for its clean and quiet beach. It is slightly smaller and more family-oriented than Myrtle Beach. It still has tons of attractions including shopping, dining, golf, boating, fishing and great places to stay. Cherry Grove has great fishing and is home to the Cherry Grove Fishing Pier.  Many of our vacation rentals in Cherry Grove sit on the beautiful Channels running through Cherry Grove or oceanfront. You get the scenic views of the salt marshes, wildlife and the beautiful Atlantic Ocean.
