This campground has many unpaved roads. It is a good ole boy type of campground. The permanent residents cannot do any wrong. Many permanent residents that do not need to follow any rules. The security is a joke (old men riding golf carts). Since the pier is within the campground, lots of strangers wandering around daily. Bathrooms and showers are old and in need of being updated and CLEANED! Stayed often enough know some things never change. We won't go back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Use extreme caution in visiting. My experience was unusual that I asked to view campsites before deciding and I asked for some sites that were empty (no reservations) and if I could set up our 30 foot travel trailer before returning to pay. I was assured that was fine. I found a acceptable site and started setting up when another RV'er pulled up saying I had his site. I told him my story and he found a security guard and told his story. Either way one of us was going to be unhappy. When he and security guard drove off, I assumed everything was OK and continued setting up. About 15 minutes later a "person" drove up and started berating me for being in a site rented to someone else. I asked her name and she said Susan "S-U-S-A-N". I saw right away I could not comunicate with this person so I relented and pulled up stakes and returned to office. I asked to speak to the young lady who told us it was OK to set up before retuning to pay and she denied she said it. I then asked for the supervisor or owner. After a few minutes I explained my situation, told them I cannot beleive I was talked to in such a manner and if a mistake was made, just say so and I could accept that. The supervisor was apologetic and offered a reduced rate if we would stay. We stayed and overall the park was OK, but I would probably stay at Myrtle Beach Travel Park on my next visit. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice park. Staff very helpful and friendly. We will stay in this park again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a great family campground. Very quiet atmosphere with very friendly camper and staff. They have live entertainment nightly on the longest pier on the east coast. They are the only campground in Myrtle Beach area that accepts the Good Sam's discount. Very pleased with this area, have visted there for last 2 years. Will plan on camping there this summer also. Anyone would enjoy this campground. We camped here in a camper.

Rate is Coast to Coast plus tax & utility surcharge. Park is about 1/3 park models, and is very well kept. As stated, all sites are paved and level. Most are tree shaded, so if satellite is important, ask for a clear site. Convenient location, friendly and helpful staff. There are a few RV sites that back up to the intercoastal waterway, but most don't. Lots of activities, residents all friendly, plenty of birds and squirrels to enjoy (or annoy, depending). We'd give it a 10 except for the $10 fee for washing a rig or car. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice campground resort to visit. Host at check in was very helpful. All sites are on cement pad and dead level. Roads are asphalt. Good space on most sites from side to side. Park now has free WiFi, good in club house only, ask for the password at office. Water and power were good and all sites have 30 & 50 amps. No camp fires here. Large play ground equipment for the kids. Next door to Barefoot Landing, you can walk over in short time. Rates were on Passport. Park was very close to full, about 60% were large class A's, then large 5th wheel units, rest were smaller units. People in park were nice to talk with. Large club house and pool were great, down by the inlet waters. Sites next to Hwy 17 will have some road noise and sites in back of park are very quite. We will return here on future trips. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice CG, concreted pads some what close. Easy to find and to get off the busy road, but had little road noise. Nice pool and club house. Nice people at front desk. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

When I tried to find a site in Myrtle Beach all of the campgrounds were full except Briarcliff, now I know why. The facility was very old and worn down and when my wife came back from the Rec. Hall, She said it felt like a nursing home. Additionally, my kids wouldn't walk anywhere because of all the ants. The Staff was very unfriendly and did not make us feel welcome. My credit cards were stolen a week before we left so the card I used for the deposit was canceled and I had to change cards. The woman who checked me in said 3 times "So the card you used for the reservation was no good?" acting like I was trying to pull something. On check-out day, we pulled out and I stopped in the office at which point they charged me for an extra night because it was past 12:00. The park was 3/4's empty! I didn't know what time check out was and we were past the 12:00 deadline, but I have NEVER been charged for that in any other campground- particularly when it was close to empty! They also charged my credit card $10 because I didn't turn in a key card after I got in a fight with them over the extra night. They got an extra $57 out of me, but now I know why the park has space when every one else is booked solid. The reputation they have on the RV boards is awful and now I know why, we certainly will never stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Excellent park, large sites widely spaced. Park in outstanding condition, looking forward to revisiting again soon. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped there in a motor home using our Coast to Coast membership. We'd be happy to run into a park like this at all of our destinations. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this park! Sites were large, well kept. We stayed under C2C membership. It was nice to be able to walk through a gate and over to Barefoot Landing for shopping, dining and walking on the boardwalk. Definitely will be going back again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We don't "worship" Briarcliffe, nor are we "enthralled" with it. However, we find it clean, welcoming and accommodating--and cheap in comparison to others in the area. Owners of spaces here will rent to individuals for a very good price off-season for a month at a time, which is excellent if one is a full-timer. (The price I've listed was out Coast-to-Coast price.) I'm sorry the poster below had a hard time and was unhappy, but having grown up in South Florida, I find it humorous that children would refuse to walk where there are ants. Perhaps a less argumentative attitude with staff who are, essentially, volunteers, would go a long way toward making his or her life more pleasant. We found Briarcliffe very pleasant. We will be looking forward to returning under Coast to Coast as well as under rental terms with individual owners. By the way, the staff allowed us to move around to accommodate our need to use an internet satellite dish without question--and with a return smile, something places we've paid a lot more have grumbled about. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I know from personal discussions with members and comments made here that this park is highly rated (all most worshiped) but I'm less enthralled. It has a worn look; not enough monies going back into maintaining the infrastructure i.e. roads,sites,clubhouse,etc. The large number of park homes detracts from parks inherent treed campground ambiance. It's location is certainly very good. I was not impressed by the front desk person; rather solemn and certainly not one to lighten your day. Lack of wireless Internet was a negative as well. It's on my OK list if visiting area but not one to rave about and/or look forward to being there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great campground. Road noise is probably a problem for units right next to the road, otherwise this would be a 10. All back-ins, but very easy to get into. Nice wide sites, didn't feel like the neighbors were in our laps. Friendly office staff, easy check in. This is a C2C campgrounds. We will definitely be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Awesome place....coming back soon ! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is defiantly an adult park, very quiet, there is a small play area for the kids but we didn�t see any. The bathhouses and laundry�s were spotless as was the rest of the park. The best part for us was that it�s right next to the Barefoot Landing Complex, (shops, stores, restaurants, and clubs) a great place for a morning walk, lunch and dinner or nightly entertainment at one of the clubs. There is a path next to site #116 to the complex. When in the area again this is where we will stay. (Five years of full timing) We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed two nights and enjoyed the park and the town. Sites are all back-ins. They ware average sized--big enough for most rigs. Everything was clean and seemed to be in good repair. We stayed in the rear of the park, and this is much quieter than the front, due to the road noise from hwy US17. Next door to Barefoot Landing, with shopping, resturants, and shows--there is even a back gate to walk there. Small playground area for kids, but I feel this park is more suited to adults. Our rate was the Passport America rate. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice place to spent some time. All sites are cement and level. Roads are blacktop and free of pot holes. Staff was very nice at check in. Park is back on passport system. Lots of very nice rigs use this park. Park is close to sea but no sand in park to track in, all grass. No problem with kids running around in golf carts. Cable TV lineup was great. Next door to Barefoot Landing with lots of fun things to do and great places to eat. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park; friendly staff. Walk to resturants and shopping. Rear of park is for permanent campers/cabins, but is located on ICW. This is an older park, but in good repair. Concrete pads and paved roads. All sites back in only. Only negative is its location next to a very busy hiway, with loud traffic 24/7. The center of the park is less noisy, but harder to get a site there. Our experience was enjoyable and we will return, but will not stay close to the road again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Fantastic place. Don't bring your kids here though. This is an adult oriented place. It was wonderful not having kids zooming around in golf carts and such. The private gate to Barefoot Landing is locked at 5pm which was a downer. Right next door to a Fudruckers and the Palmetto Grill which were both good. Very quiet, pleasant and relaxing. Staff was great too. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is an awesome RV Resort, very quiet, and although children are welcome I felt it was a perfect adult park. The resort is member owned therefore there are alot of "private sites" in the park and park models available for rental. Convienient and clean. Will come back again no doubt!! The waterfront listing is for a few directly on the intercoastal waterway We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is very nice. All sites are cement and park has a lot of trees to park under. Lot of things to play with here, kids play ground equipment. Park is full most of the time best to call for a space. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is very nice, streets and sites are paved. Park has a lot to do for everyone. Intracoastal waterway next to park. I think anyone would be happy here. Ocean is about two blocks away. Large number of cable TV channels. Some noise off Hwy. 17 and airport to North. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Lots to do, plenty of shady sites, way to many golf carts to deal with. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We camped at Lakewood Campground in September 2007. It's, as usual, in our opinion is the best campground at Myrtle Beach . Sites are big and nice . All sites have 30 and 50 amp service . All sites have cable and phone hook ups . The new bath houses and the old remodeled bath houses are always clean . They now have wireless hook ups at the Coffee House for those that do not use dial up . We can't wait till our next trip to Lakewood . We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice location and facilities. The sites are gravel and we got an ocean front and came very close to getting stuck as it had rained a lot before we got there. However there were some very nice gravel, grassy lots that were a little further back that were probably cheaper and certainly firmer packed. But overall I would highly recommend this location. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Our first trip to Lakewood was a very pleasant experience. The staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. The park is dated and could use some improvements. The bath houses are not air conditioned, the trash pick up was not regular, and no shower/spigots at the beach entrances, the grass needed mowing in some areas. The interior roads were wide enough for 2 vehicles to pass. We rode our bikes daily and did not witness the roving hordes of reckless teens on golf carts. Actually I found the golf cart traffic at a minimum, unlike some of the other posters. The pool was very nice and had 2 lifeguards on duty. This was a comfortable place to stay and we would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The people that work there were nice. The site was ok. But the bathrooms needed to be cleaned more often and updated. Too many golf carts. The place is nice and the children loved it. I didn't have to worry about the children too much when they were at the pool or game room. This place is too big for me. People were not so friendly, that were camping. Once you are in the camp site you really don't have to leave this place. It has everything you will need. I can't say that I will not be back, but it will be a while it takes money to stay here $$. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Absolutely love this place. The golf cart parade every night is very entertaining. We had an Ocean front site & it was great. Nice store, nice beach, nice playground. I cant say enough good things about this place. There was an incident across from our site. Someone neglected to disclose to the reservation people they were bringing 2 very large rottweilers along, After they attacked a very small dog that was on a leash next door, it became very noticable to all that they were there. (Rules state large aggressive breeds are not allowed in this campground & it gives a list of breeds not allowed on your confirmation letter). I was very happy to see that they do enforce their rules & they gave the people the option to get rid of the dogs (take them elsewhere)or leave in the morning, they left. We cant wait to return to this campground. Next time I will spend extra for a golfcart to ride around in, in the evenings. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

If you like crowded tight sites, underage kids careening around in golf carts then this place is for you. We found it difficult to ride our bikes on the roads due to the amount of traffic. Would only ride in the early morning. Some like this type of place with the hustle and bustle. narrow roads, trees and parked vehicles make it difficult to back in. We went based on a recommendation from a relative. As is every place you go in a beach town everything you do takes $$. Sewer connections were oddly placed at mid site. Neighbors connection was right next to our table. Due to small size and shape of site we could not relocate the table. My sewer connection was broken and it was never repaired. With a doughnut I was able to use it. Rules are selectively enforced. The only true waterfront sites are around the lake. Our site was dirty upon arrival and we noticed as others left some of them also left trash behind. Never saw anyone check empty sites other than picking up the bag of trash at the road and making sure the site was empty. It is not for us. Would not stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This RV park was the worst I have ever stayed in and I cannot recommend it under any circumstances. Here is a brief listing of my encounter. When I went into reception the list of people with complaints trailed into a long line. I too would find myself in this position. I reserved and paid for a dark pink site, but when I arrived they placed me in an orange site, which is further back from the beach. Carolyn in the reception area was very rude when this was pointed out. She stated that the site had been “converted” to a dark pink site (however all of the park maps and the Internet still show it as an orange site) and would not refund the difference of the orange-site price. The site was not ready when we arrived and was covered with junk-- a dirty picnic table, and an old, wet, dirty, oriental rug,. It was also being used for a bike parking lot, which we had to move before we could pull in our RV. The Internet service did not work in the site, perhaps this is because it was not truly converted to a premium site, Internet only works in Blocks 1,2 and Oceanfront. The cable television did not work and although maintenance was called it was never repaired. On more than one occasion the bathroom toilets backed up, onto the floor and into the showers—sewage smelled outside of the bathhouse. My father refused to go back into the bathhouse at all and showered in our RV the rest of the trip (as did our whole family). People were shooting fireworks in the RV next to us into late hours of the night. The only time we went to the extremely small indoor pool it was adult swim only. The sites were very tight, our awning could barely open without touching the permanent trailer next to us. We had to back in narrowly between trees. We made the best of our trip in spite of this park, but truthfully the best times were had when we were off the property. It was a crowded, disgusting mess. The golf carts are the least of their problems. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed in the ocean area. Very nice campground, beach and pools. Seemed to have a lot of entertainment. Lots of golf carts!! We stayed for 6 days, only trouble was the weather, as it was cold and rainy, but no one can control that. Would consider staying again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed at Lakewood the week of June 16th in site 5414 which is in Block 1 South. My wife & I sat down after the trip to rate this campground, and our rating was between a 6 & 7 on a scale of 1-10. Positives....lots to do, especially if you have kids (we don't), relatively clean bathhouses (considering the sheer numbers of people), a nice beach that is within easy walking distance from most of the campground, and a convenience location. Negatives......sheer number of golf carts, lack of traffic signs at intersections, and park management's failure to enforce their published rules. We'll be back here the end of July for another visit, but in the future we'll only use this park for pre-Memorial Day and post-Labor Day visits. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Almost all sites are back-ins, but there are a few pull throughs on the main road as last year I had one. This year, I was in block 1 North, and although it was far away from everything, it was quieter. It was in full sun as well. The back in sites are backed in to other campers. One set faces the ocean and the other is opposite. Either is fine because you can't see the ocean anyway, but if you face the ocean the sun is under the awning in the morning or evening the other way. The sites are close, but everyone is having a good time and so much activity is going on that you don't care. You can definitely put your awning out and still have some room to spare. The roads are only narrow in the back blocks. Stay in block 1 or 2 for wider roads, which are almost wide enough for 2 vehicles to pass. Rent a golf cart to get around. It is expensive ($48 for 24 hours), but it is so much fun. After you do it, you'll think it is worth it at least for a couple of days or so. The only sites that can see the ocean are Block 1 and part of Block 2 ocean front sites. The dunes there are lower, so you can even see the ocean as you drive down the strip. I didn't step one foot inside the bathhouses, so can't comment there. I did notice over on the south side it appeared there were bathhouses that had individual showers, etc. as people were waiting to use them. This might be nice for privacy, etc. WiFi is $10/day or $20 for 7 days or $30 for a month. Free cable TV, which worked great, but hardly used as we were out doing tons of stuff. I did a quick walk over to Pirateland and Ocean Lakes. Pirateland is not for me as it is too cramped. Ocean Lakes is almost similar to Lakewood in layout, just smaller. The golf carts at Ocean Lakes were about 50% more. I think because OL lets you bring your own, so this adds to the number. Plus OL is smaller in size. Overall we had an excellent time with excellent weather. Sunshine all week. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very large campground with a wide variety of sites. Although we had full hookups, our site was not level and I had to use 4WD to get the rig through the sand. The interior streets are narrow and not designed for big rigs. Big rigs need to get the premium priced sites for enough space. Extensive facilities and activities including great beach access make this a destination CG. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Reservations were easy. Site assignment was exactly where I wanted to be. Check-in was easy. The site was level and easy to access. Security was evident 24 hrs. per day. I would definitely stay here again. The beach was clean and the indoor pool, (on the beach) was great. We camped here in a Motorhome.

After reading some reviews on this site, we were excited about camping here. A very nice campground. The staff was very nice. They were a little over the top with the religious stuff. At times it got a little cult-like creepy. The facilities were very nice with the exception of the bathrooms. Dirty. Dirty. Dirty. Also $9.95/day for WiFi is excessive. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Lakewood has dealt with the most serious fault I have had with them in the past--fireworks on the beach. In past years, weekend nights especially started to sound like a bombardment, and everyone from the park security to the town police was passing the buck. Apparently enough of us paying guests complained, and people are banned from shooting fireworks, at least on Lakewood's beach. Saw a few rockets from the park to the south, but nothing like before. The place still has an onerous set of rules, but they are enforced selectively enough that you can ignore them, at least in the off-season. Since our last stay at Lakewood two years ago, they have added Wi-Fi, and best of all it is accessible from the sites nearest the beach. The service is NOT free, however. It's $9.95 for a single day, $19.95 a week and $29.95 a month. A park that charges as much as Lakewood ought to offer the Wi-Fi with no extra charge. After all, they don't charge extra to save your immortal soul with their endless chain of Bible studies and worship services. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is our favorite campground to go to for Thanksgiving. This will be our 6th year in a row. Love waking up and looking out the bedroom window and seeing the ocean. Very friendly staff and love the Christian atmosphere. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I did not like this site due to the non pull through sites, it's just the convenience of it. The bathrooms were hot with no a/c . I did not like having to wait till the office opens up to check in. At Ocean Lakes, they have express check in and that means if you say you'll be arriving at 6am that morning, you just drive on into you're empty reserved site. I also did not like the fact that the gates are locked at midnight. If I want to stay out until 2 or 3 in the morning, and then return to my site, I should be able to. Half the stuff they had there was shut down for maintenance while I was there. Their camp store left a lot to be desired, out of a lot of stuff. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed 1 week. Since we were off season, campground was not full, which is good as some campers had the tv on pretty loud and pretty late. No one came around to enforce quiet time. Campground is overrun by squirrels. They are everywhere. Close to the beach, which is nice. The pool is great. Close to everything. Restrooms were adequate. Would try another campground on next visit to see if worthwhile, but would not mind coming back, again off season. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Very nice park. The people that use this park are very nice. the staff is very nice and really are there to help you out.Sites are fairly level ,only used an 1" board to get level. we will be back again next year. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice clean place. Staff helpful..except the young girl at the check in desk. Unfriendly and acts like you are interrupting her. Ocean front site are SMALL your neighbors sewer hook up will be 10 feet from your front door. Can't blame them for trying to get the most for their money. Ocean sites are far from level as this place shows wear and tear bring plenty of boards to level out very soft sand. Would go back again beach was clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Over all experience was pleasant, however I do have one MAJOR complaint. For advertising themselves as a Christian campground these people are certainly on the route to all that is evil, as they are money hungry. While spending time at the campground my wife and I, along with friends took in some water activities in Myrtle Beach and while riding a banana boat being pulled by a jetski my wife was injured and required immediate medical attention. After taking her to the Emergency Room, they couldn't confirm what the injury was but my wife was in extreme pain so we decided to pack up and head out and leave our friends behind to enjoy the rest of their trip. Straight from the emergency room back to hookup and pull out. I didn't stop to check out. I just wanted to get the wife back home and to one of our doctors because she was in so much pain. Long and short of it after getting home we found out she had broken her leg in the joint and needs surgery. I called our friends that stayed at the campground and asked them to go to the Camp office and check me out and see if the managment might refund (credit back to my credit card) the two days I had left early. Our friends were told absolutely not, that I was the only one that could check out and since I wasn't there to do so that I would be charged until the last day of my stay, and no refund would be given. My friends called and told me this so I called and was told that If I would like a refund that I would have to check out in person. Being that I am back in Maryland I don't think that is going to happen so I don't suppose I will be getting any refund for the two days that I didn't use their facilities. None the less and to show the greed for money, the campground tried to re-rent the space on one of the days before my original checkout. Luckily my friend was at his site next to mine and told the people attempting to claim the space that they needed to go back to the office and let them know that the space was occupied. Of course it really wasn't because I had left but If I am going to be charged for it and not be refunded my money, they certainly are NOT going to rent it out again until after my original checkout date. So moral of the story: if you think these supposed Christian folks are going to give you any kind of Christian break if you have a medical emergency and have to leave in a hurry, do not count on it. Not only will you not get any refund, but they will try to rent out the campsite to someone else and charge you for it too. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was a nice park. Interior roads were good, but you couldn't hardly ride your bicycles without about getting run over by golfcarts driven by kids that weren't suppose to be driving them. The park didn't seem to enforce their very own rules. This is a huge park, very, very crowded. We were ever so lucky though to get a site that was backed up to a fence and we even had shade trees. It seemed that the rental trailers had trees but most of the other side of the park burnt up. Very nice playground, but there were so many children that the playground really wasn't large enough for 1900 sites. Our site was really hard to get backed into, there were trees in the middle of the road and one on the front side of our site, so it took many tries to get into position. The garbage pickup was very nice and also being able to have cable. We had to go to the laundromat and it was very crowded and extremely hot. The gift shop and snack area was very nice, seemed to have everything that you needed. The scenery around the campground was great. They have nice little wooden bridges and ducks galore. Lots to look at and do. I was disappointed that we had to pay extra if we wanted to see a show that they performed at night, so we didn't go. Also inquired about getting a golf cart, but the rates were so darn high that it was just a waste of money. This is a nice campground for just once a year or so. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Lakewood continues to be our family's favorite spot to park for a while. Under new ownership the rates have climbed a bit but a great place to spend a week or two at the beach. We arrived a night early and were graciously accommodated. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is huge - as in too big for us to enjoy. Most sites are just big enough for larger rigs to fit into snugly. The ocean front area is hot as hades (no shade at all) but there is some shade back from the ocean. The bathhouses are HOT and they are kept as clean as they can be kept with so many campers using them 24/7. The golf carts are very expensive (like they are almost everywhere) and too many kids drive them like they are drag racing!! It can really be dangerous if you have little ones and are camping near the ocean front. There is a Christian atmosphere here from the moment you see the sign at the entrance, always quoting scripture. Not a problem most of the time, but their strong enforcement of the alcohol policy is a bit too much. Every campground has rules about keeping your beverage on site, and no loud, abusive, drunken behavior, and I'm all for that. But this campground doesn't even let you have a cocktail 'exposed' while sitting in a chair under your awning! We were told we had to 'cover' our glasses or go inside. When we asked about this at the office we were told 'that is our policy and we enforce it strongly'. We complied, of course, but I really don't like drinking out of a plastic cup! I could understand if we were loud or doing something to be noticed, but we were really just sitting, talking to each other, not bothering anyone! The real problem with this campground is the size. It's just too big - like many of those in MB, particularly those on the ocean. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a Christian-based campground. There are plenty of activities for each day of the week. The staff was very nice; however, we were misled about allowing dogs on the beach. MB is a public beach and you can have dogs on the beach before 9:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m. (even during the summer). They do not allow aggressive dogs in the park, which was great. The only other drawbacks were the size of the sites and there were so many golf carts. The noise from the constant traffic of the golf carts took away from the peaceful experience of this trip. I doubt we will be back just based on the golf cart traffic alone. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great park. It was tight there. Great set up. Great for kids if we still had some. Will go back. No complains except site were tight. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

My wife and I stayed here in April 2006. What a fantastic CG. Our site backed up to a pond. This park is huge, we had the opportunity to take a few long walks along the ocean. The CG has a lot of amenities. We would definitely stay here again the next time we go to Myrtle Beach. We rode through the other large family campgrounds that were close by, but they didn't compare to this one. They even had a AUCE Friday night fish fry on the beach. Great fish and nice touch. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice campground. It is small enough to be easy to get around without a golf cart but large enough to have nice amenities. I love the indoor pool that is located ocean front. It was nice to be able to sit on the deck while looking at the ocean. We also enjoyed the basketball court. It was too cold to swim in the outdoor pool but they were remodeling it while we were there. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Camped middle of the week for two nights on off season. Heated indoor pool is actually heated, hot tub is "hot". Good location and access to Myrtle beach attractions. I dare say, it would not be my first choice during the summer, I know I wouldn't enjoy it much but Spring comes early in SC. Had 8 campsites to myself with 2 bath houses within 100 feet of site. Lots of shade and climbing trees for the kids. Grounds and facilities well kept even during off season. We'll be back in the Fall or next Spring. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We stayed here about 4 days, check-in was easy and the staff friendly. The sites are at best okay. We were near the beach so the site were very sandy to the point where our rig was sinking in. Our biggest complaint is the sites are very narrow and close together. Basically they squeeze as many sites as they can onto the property. I suppose this would be great if one was camping with a group but, I have a problem with the next rigs sewer dump being right by our picnic table. Also, they rent golf carts to campers which many people seem to think are race cars. We had a couple of close calls between our truck and carts. I suspect the place is a zoo during high season. We'll find another place to stay if we're in the area again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice, very busy, many things to keep all kids/adults busy everyday, if there is any negative things to say about the park is there is way too many kids driving around golfcarts, however many security guards to keep them under control, nice Christian campground We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was our third trip to Myrtle Beach in the past 3 years and our third different campground. I'd rate Lakewood better than Ocean Lakes and on the same par as Pirateland. Check in was quick and they accommodated our request to get our group of three rigs together in adjoining spots. The spots are adequate width, but the roads are very narrow and required the guy across the street to move his truck so we could back in. The sites are very sandy and made quite a mess of things, even with a large area rug on the ground. We also thought it was odd not to have fire rings or designated fire pits. The resort has plenty to offer and all of the facilities were clean and in working order - except for the Marble Slab Ice Cream vendor, which was a disappointment as temps hit the upper 90s!! The beach was nice and clean, as were the pools. We were glad to see the management wasn't a bunch of rule-Nazis - no one seems to enforce the alcohol ban, everyone shoots off fireworks on the beach at night, and a few other rules are bent, but nothing too excessive. However, the youth on golf carts speeding up and down the beach front road were a bit out of control. I always wonder where the parents of these kids are and why the parks in MB allow this annoyance to continue. Overall though, a very nice campground and we'd camp here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a very family oriented park. Our campsite was on Crater Lake, which is a small fishing lake inside the campground. There wasn't a lot of room between us and our neighbors but, they were nice so we didn't have any problems. The campground has lots of activities including swimming, fishing, canoeing, and mini-golf. We enjoyed our stay and are planning another trip very soon. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We've stayed at Lakewood at least four times, all off season. I cringe at the thought of this place during the height of summer. The place is attractive enough, but their rules regarding dogs and alcohol are pretentious, whether or not they are enforced. Worst of all is their total hands-off policy regarding fireworks on the beach. I heard all kinds of excuses, and several conflicting reports about what government agency has authority over the beach. Meanwhile, people were setting off huge fireworks mortars out there, with no safety precautions whatever. All it would take would be one misdirected rocket to set an RV roof afire, and there would be a mass catastrophe in the making, especially when the park is full. I don't want to camp in what sounds like a war zone after dark, so we will probably avoid Myrtle Beach altogether, but especially this park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We had a corner lot, so it was easy for us to get in and out. However, some of the sites did look a little tight and I was glad I didn't have to back in them. The indoor pool is nice but at night it is too dark, not near enough lights. The dim lighting combined with the fog coming of the water (it was very cool outside) made it hard to see. The hookups at the sites are not arranged very well. The back of our trailer was over someone else's water faucet and I had to back my trailer in at an angle to get our electric to reach. The staff was friendly and the place was clean. We were here in the off season and they still had everything open, which was nice. Some of the beach campgrounds close everything up during the fall and winter months. We would consider going back but would prefer one of the other area parks. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have camped at Lakewood in March and September, 2004. Both times we were very satisfied with the condition of the campsite, the cleanliness of the bathroom facilities, and other amenities at the campground. All the staff members that we came into contact with were pleasant and courteous. The campground is easy to drive through, even with larger rigs. We will camp there again.

After hearing so many raving reviews, we just knew it would be as good or better than Ocean Lakes. We booked this trip in January. We made plans here because Ocean Lakes was full. Lakewood does not allow you to choose your site, and we had to pay everything up front. When we got to our site, my husband took one look and said, "We will never come here again!" Our site was a back in site beside a bridge, ditch, and trees. Although he didn't have problems backing in, this shows the size and location of this site. We walked around the campsite (in the mud) and grimaced at the HUGE amount of trash on this site! This is the first time we have ever had to camp with our neighbor's sewage line 10 feet from our door! Our picnic table is right beside it! As soon as we began to set up, we noticed the water spigot did not have a handle to turn it on and off. We also did not have a picnic table when we arrived. I immediately called the office to let them know someone had left trash, broke the handle, and we had no table. Although I was transferred twice, I was told they would send the maintenance man over. A few minutes later, he arrived, an overworked stressed out guy. He said he was the only maintenance man after 4:30 and he would take care of it as soon as he could. He was a little rude, but we took it as stress. We went out to eat and when we returned, he had taken care of everything! Although there was nothing he could do about the mud or size of the campsite. We did drive around and see some larger sites, but most sites here are double sites with two campers sharing one site. Many sites do have trees, but I would rather have a tree or two and room than this many trees. If you have never been to a really nice large campground, you might be happy here. Unfortunately for us, we started with some of the larger, newer, and nicer campgrounds. It i
