Old Myrtle Beach Hotels/Models
Someone from SC sent this to me and I thought I would share. I grew up in the area and remember so many of these places. Maybe others of you remember them too. The music is great--old "shag" music.

The title should read "Hotels/Motels"--NOT Models.
Those WERE the days, suewoo. Nothing like a night of shagging at the OD Pavilion.
My friends and I were waitresses in the summers at several of the restaurants and hotels in the area in the '50's while going to college.

Friends of ours had a house at OD/Cherry Grove right next to the first "fine" hotel built there. I can't quite call the name now. There was a real downtown then. This was in the 60's--they changed the name to NMB soon after that. It was a REAL beach then!

This was well before my time but it really makes me sad how great MB used to be compared to now. Thanks for posting.
I grew up enjoying MB in the 80s and 90s and it was still great then. I hate what the officials and the transplants have done to MB the past decade or more.

Long story short. When DH and I were "courting" in NYC (you KNOW how long ago that is using that term!!) he was visiting his folks in NC and they were at OD. He called me from a pay phone on the square in OD to say "hello"!!! And his family had been coming to the beach--OD or Pawley's--for the 30 years before that!!
We are here now, as a matter o' fact--beautiful sunny day after a ridiculously cold one yesterday. Oysters for dinner tonight!!
