Ho! Ho! Ho! Want to take the kids to see Santa this season? Here’s a list of places in and around Myrtle Beach where you can take them during the 2020 holiday season. Some of these are also events that include refreshments, crafts, and other kids’ activities; others are just places where the kids can tell Santa what they want for Christmas and you can snap those precious holiday photos.

Rent an RV for spring or summer travel, as extra housing for family and guests, or as a spare office for working from home. And an RV adds a second kitchen - or more like a kitchenette - for holiday meals. In some parts of the country, spring time is the perfect time to go camping. Campgrounds in Myrtle Beach are less crowded, kids are back in school, and the temperatures are perfect for campfires.
You may even want to consider an RV rental the next time you need temporary lodgings for family coming into town or for short-term business stays. If you already own an RV, you could turn it into a second income.
