Huntington Beach State Park – 61 & 59

Huntington Beach State Park -65
Huntington Beach State Park is located in Murrells Inlet, SC, south of Myrtle Beach. We really enjoy Huntington Beach State Park because when in the campground you truly feel like you are in a state park, as opposed to the resort-style campgrounds at the beach.
