Is there enough to do at Myrtle Beach to stay for an entire week? Also, is it a worthwhile family trip? Any tips on what to do, where to eat, etc.

jill,
Have you done a search of this site? There have been a lot of suggestions, comments, facts posted over the last 6 months.
As to your specific questions:
1. A weeklong stay should be fine--a lot of folks basically spend an entire week on the beach. Even if that is not your preference, the area is famous for golf, and there are quite a few attractions (from amusement park to NASCAR go-kart track to aquarium to IMAX to parasailing) and lots of shopping.
2. Myrtle Beach is very family-friendly.
If you can swing it, go on or after Labor Day, as it will be a lot less crowded. But everything will still be open, and the weather in September (and even October) is still great.
If you have any specific questions after reviewing the numerous MB posts, I'll be glad to try to help.
