What travelers are saying

The museum has lots of photos and artifacts from early history and even has a fish aquarium featured on the tv show that builds special tanks for people.

We love the local museum and find it very interesting showing local facts & artifacts plus a BONUS .. amazing fish tank with local fish.

Housed in an old school, you can find treasures of interest for every age.

FREE and Informative!

Amazing museum that offers SO MUCH in the way of the history of Horry County. It’s free. Parking is easy (and also free!). You can walk through at your own pace and nobody bothers you. They have a neat little gift shop too!

Great little local Museum

What a great little local museum in an old school. It even has a fish tank from ATM! Really enjoyed learning about the history and to think it's all free!
