retrieving a disc on Hole 17; soccer complex in background.
Tammy B.

Socastee Recreation Park features so many amenities, but lacks a website or central information center. What appears to be an office is at the entrance to the complex, but during both of my visits I was unable to locate anyone staff-ish. A large parking lot provides plenty of parking for the park's offerings - a nature trail, disc golf course, archery range, remote control car racing track, soccer complex, basketball courts, and workout stations. A couple shelters provide event space, and reasonable restrooms are available. The overall park appears well-kept, and the only thing lacking is the availability of information or a website. My particular visit was for the disc golf course. This course, at least to my beginner self, was incredibly challenging! My main complaint is the lack of information for the tees and the very difficult-to-follow paths. You have to intuitively know that the bridge, for instance, past the basket for Hole 4 is the path over to the Hole 5 tee. Ignore the hobo camp over to the right of the bridge, too. And don't get too unsettled by the random car and camp seats that are sitting next to a couple of the tees. Just assume there's a league that comes by and just happened to leave furniture. Distances for the holes are not available. Directions for the next tees, and maps/guides to the holes are not available. This course was carved out of thick woods, and the designers just might be sadists - plenty of Par 4s and a couple Par 5s are bound to challenge even the most adept disc golfers. One hole has TWO almost-90 degree angles! And the "moat" protecting Hole 17 taunts you once you're past the tee box. Machetes might be a good accessory for this course, should your disc end up in the woods. And wear good hiking shoes - this is NOT a clean course. The rustic challenge of walking this course adds to the challenge. Oh, and should you be playing Hole 10 in the afternoon with the sun blinding you, just keep your disc along the treeline; the basket is just around the corner in the opening to the right. You're welcome. And to the person who abandoned a purple driver disc in the ravine on Hole 11, thank you - it is a lovely addition to my bag!

I come here to play disc golf, but Socastee Park is a catch-all for youth sports in a small local community suburb of Myrtle Beach. The park features several ball fields for softball and soccer, an interesting dirt bike adventure course, a restroom facility, and an 18-hole disc golf course. It stays quite busy on the weekends during the warmer months with youth leagues, tournaments, and contests. The disc golf course is okay. The front 9 are in a wooded area surrounded by sparse foliage. The back 9, however, are like playing in a swamp. Many of the locals have told me the back 9 are flooded with water even on good weeks with little rain. I came just three days after a series of thunderstorms passed through. Two of the holes were impassable because of water. Despite this watery hiccup, the local disc golfers love this course. It is very popular seven days a week with many locals playing through on a regular basis to improve their skills, and other locals forming teams to play tournaments. Overall, this is a nice park and a good place for disc golf. It's great for beginners, but just challenging enough for pros. And I haven't lost a disc yet so I'm kinda partial to this course.

Great park, nicely marked with signs, and very challenging. I look forward to playing this course again in the future.

This is a must in the Myrtle Beach area! The tour is…read morerelaxing, entertaining, and educational I have been four or five times. Each time it's different because they discuss what's happening on the river at the time you're there. This visit we've seen lots of alligators, including a baby, yellow, bellied slider turtles, lots of osprey, starting to raise their young and some beautiful plant life as well as the lore that goes with both the ICW, the rivers and all that goes on there. We always take visitors here. However, it's a place for locals to go over and over again. It's one of my favorite ways to relax and spend some time on the water. This visit we saw Peacock that must've been 8 feet long. He was magnificent. It would be a great place to or friends to show them a little appreciation!

While visiting myrtle beach, I was looking for an area with some trails that would be easier since…read morei would have my husband with me who is really not a hiker. We decided on the yellow and blue trail in waccamaw wildlife refuge. Reviews i had read from other sources stated that they had seen lots of wildlife over off this trail. The trail was pretty secluded and felt set back away from everything. There were so many trees! Absolutely loved it! We walked on a blanket of pine needles for a good chunk of the trail and then on a boardwalk for part of the trail. Saw lots of spider webs, some caterpillars, lots of lizards, some birds, and then a squirrel. The trail was quiet on a friday morning, we only saw a handful of people. It was a lovely stroll in nature and one of the highlights of the trip. It definitely made me want to come back to south carolina to come and explore with some friends and really go and see more of the beauty!

Absolutely beautiful area and well worth the visit…read more We took a drive out to Conway yesterday. It's truly an Americana town with so much history dating as far back to the 1732 British settlement. We took a lovely stroll on the Riverwalk and soaked in the scenery. Saw many different types of boats coming thru on the water as the trailhead is right there. Boaters can even dock, do lunch or simply just walk around town. Few people were fishing, and many families were enjoying the fully fenced in playground. A local hot spot right on the edge of the riverwalk is a place called Chanti's Pizza, it's a popular local restaurant that caters to many homeowners, as well as great reviews by numerous visitors that come to town too! Would be a perfect place to dine if spending some time here and wanting to have lunch or dinner on the water. It's truly an iconic boardwalk trail (approximately 1.5-mile of a scenic pathway) along Waccamaw River that goes under the US-501 bridge and over some extremely old railroad tracks. Stunning views of the river and an abundance of Spanish moss draping the trees. Definitely a must do if you are near this community or while traveling on vacation just as we were.

Highly recommend adding Conway downtown and the riverwalk to your local holiday sightseeing…read moreentertainment after sunset. Some light exhibitions have music to add to the ambiance. There's plenty of parking on the side streets and parking lot. Check out the official Conway town website for the most updated information of events starting in December - tree lighting, caroling, shows in the theater. 20-30 minutes from Myrtle Beach. Best of all, it's free. In October, definitely come back for the Halloween town when the trees are decorated with hanging pumpkins and there are spooky displays everywhere. The calendar features events like movie nights, food trucks, and the scare factory.
