Vereen Memorial Historical Gardens

Reviewed By Eric B - Nashville, North Carolina

Cruise past North Myrtle Beach to just before SC/NC border on hwy 17 and Vereen Memorial Garden is on the right. A free park with many walking trials and wooden walks off the intercoastal waterway. A regular shown us 2 bald eagles the nest in the area and where we can see barred owls in the woods. It is dog friendly. It is truly a hidden gem. The park does take donations to keep it in the condition it is. We will be back for sure.

Cherry Grove Beach

Reviewed By Matt P - Gainesville, Virginia

My wife and I enjoyed our stroll on the beach. You can fine more sea shells there than in Myrtle beach. Lovely beach to go for a walk especially on a nice sunny day. The beach is long and goes for miles. The best times are early morning watching the sunrise or late afternoon at sunset.

Staying at my sister's place for the Christmas holiday, we were able to take a walk on the beach to the Kindred Spirit mailbox. We each left our names in the notebook. It was cute decoration with a Christmas decoration.

Ingram Planetarium

Reviewed By PaulSuzanneTravel - Southport, North Carolina

Associated with The Museum of Coastal Carolina (both founded by the same man), The Ingram Planetarium is a private planetarium. We enjoyed a program about the Seven Wonders of the World followed be a show about the (possibly?) Seven Wonders of the Universe. The shows were followed by a presentation of the current night sky. The Planetarium offers educational programs throughout the year, catering to young and old alike. It would be an ideal place to take a child or young adult who has an interest in science. It is well worth the admission price of $9.50 plus tax for non-members. Most events are free for Planetarium members.

D'vine Findz Antiques

Reviewed By cheryl h - Durham, North Carolina

It's a nice little place but nothing special. They offer a little bit of everything but the booths with the fun collectibles were jumbled and some hard to see everything. The booths with furniture were wide open and easy to maneuver. If you are in the area it's worth checking out for sure.

We spent the day on Sunset Beach while on a recent vacation and loved it. Sunset Beach is set up very family-friendly with public restrooms, and a pier to visit for $1/person. We enjoyed learning more about local history and of course all of the seafood that is harvested from this area!

Sandpiper Bay Golf Course

Reviewed By uncpig - Asheville,NC

My friend and I played here the day before Thanksgiving. What a great course! They offer 3 nines. The course has wide landing areas with scattered bunkers, lots of water and bunker guarded greens. The greens are amazing and the best that I have played in a long time. The staff was super friendly and glad that you chose to play their course. I will definitely play here again!!
