We just got back from a delightful trip to Myrtle Beach. Maggie was a trooper for the 10 hour drive in her snoozer car seat.

We stayed in North Myrtle. Dogs are allowed on the beach starting sometime in September. We stayed at the Baywatch which accepts dogs for an extra $15 night, up to 25 pounds. (Only from Oct to early spring.) bring fido and other sites list other hotels as well.

Our room was great, we got a one bedroom oceanfront. It had pergo style laminate floors which we loved because there was no fur from previous guests. Next year we will bring more beds or rugs for Maggie, but she was fine. Everybody was welcoming to us and Maggie. All the guests we met loved her and some were sad they had left their dog home.

We went out to eat three times at Barefoot Landing, a shopping and dining area which is pet friendly. We had to eat outside but T-bonz, Smokin hot BBQ and Bully's bar/grille welcomed us to their patio area. They all offered Maggie water. Most of the shops allowed her in as well. The whole area is built on boardwalk type walkways and Maggie loved walking around. I know of at least 2 other places that have outdoor seating as well. We got bagels at Krave bagels and sat out front at the tables, but they were in the sun and it was a bit hot.

We drove a bit south to Huntingdon Beach State Park. They allow dogs there as well. They have some trails etc and there is a walkway that goes along a lake with alligators. This is the only nearby place we have found to see wild alligators in that area. We went on the beach at the park that day.

Along the way we figured out that we should stop for food at the exits right before the official rest areas (which usually just have facilities, not food) and we could take Maggie out for a nice walk and picnic.

We had a relaxing time and the weather was warm, but with a nice breeze, so Maggie just chilled with us in the beach. She did get nervous at strange hotel noises and was anxious when dad would leave us for his morning walk.

Hopefully this is helpful for anybody considering such a trip.
