The kick-off to the 2017 summer season has finally arrived! Ocean Lakes Family Campground will have a full house for Memorial Day weekend, with families enjoying a long holiday weekend and bikers here for what has been known as the Atlantic Beach Bikefest. The Grand Strand will be packed, and the 23-mile traffic loop will be back in Myrtle Beach late night Friday, Saturday and Sunday (more details on that coming up).
