Ocean Lakes

Spring has sprung here at Ocean Lakes, and it's just in time for all the Easter and spring break activities. We are so egg-cited, and we have so many fun activities planned, from having a hoppin' good time with Peter Cotton Tail himself to Bird Bingo, to Glow Golf, to Yoga With a View, to worshiping together as we celebrate the resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ. There is so much for everyone of all ages to do this week!

On Easter Sunday, guests woke up to the smell of fresh coffee and salt air - Sandy’s Coffee & Creamery, located on the beachfront, held its grand opening!  This new food option replaced Sandy’s Snack Shack, which was located beside the Observation Deck on the beachfront. The building is still there – Sandy’s Coffee & Creamery has moved in. The coffee portion is open daily from 7 AM to 11 AM. The creamery portion will open this Summer and will be open from 3 PM to 11 PM. A date has not been announced; however, we will update everyone once the ice cream starts being scooped at this location! Put Er’ There, Partner | We have partnered with Benjamin’s Bakery and Café, a local business, which has been in the Grand Strand since 1994. We are incredibly proud to partner with them to bring our guests quality treats and coffee freshly brewed daily.  Tidbit From Tonie | We asked our Food and Beverage Manager, Tonie, about the new addition: “Our Guests and Annual Lease Site Holder...

Ahh, the weather is warming up and the sun is staying out a little longer, which means it is time to hit the beach in a camper for vacation! We remind guests to remember their beach towels and sunscreen, their car passes and golf car registration stickers. However, one thing we tend to leave out at times are camping courtesies (some things are not common knowledge).  Calling all campers, beginners and pros, let’s talk the do’s and don’ts of camping etiquette |  Quiet Hours | Most, if not all, campgrounds have set hours that ask their guests to quiet down for the night. Our Quiet Hours are from 11 PM to 7 AM . This does not make us or any campground the “fun police,” but it does allow for the campers around you to get a good night sleep. Everyone is here to relax and have a good time, and to do so, we all need our rest at the end of the day.  Turn The Volume Down | This is a big one around here, and we all know it is the truth. Yes, we all love our music and yes, music is...

It is no surprise that Ocean Lakes Family Campground will be celebrating 50 years of business on July 2nd, 2021 ! However, what is a surprise is that… We are kicking off our celebrations with a Main Office renovation and expansion !  Wait for it… Here is Another Surprise | Along with a Main Office renovation, we are adding a new addition to the building. A new Mail and Package Area for Annual Leaseholders will be added to the East side of the Compliance Office. Greetings from Greg | The Assistant General Manager, Greg Bender, excitedly commented on the renovation and expansion:  “During the last ten years or so, the Main Office building has been added onto multiple times to assist with additional Teammates in Reservations, Human Resources, Administration, and training areas.
