It did look like fun though. 
And besides getting free WiFi at Myrtle Beach, you do have to listen to the take off and arrival of the airplanes that pass overhead. The beach is in the direct path of the Myrtle Beach airport. One of the reason I wanted to stay at least one night though was that the pass through the dunes to the beach is very OPEN and wide (at Huntington Beach you had to pass through very closed pine shrubs) and well I wanted to walk down to the beach and see the moon on the water...... Even bring Herschel with me I felt safer walking the open path at Myrtle Beach
Years ago, when my daughter graduated from Basic training at Paris Island we stayed at the Hungington St. Pk. We didn't investigate the area as you did, so I really enjoyed seeing what is there. I loved the beach, we walked and walked it, especially at night, so romantic , you know? 
There was a dune between us and the beach, no foliage, just sand we had to walk around and there it was in all its glory. I love water sites and the ocean, there is something magic about it for me. 
Just not warm and welcoming to me. Now the ones with the people and horses and the ones you posted from Huntington Beach??? That's my idea of beach! I know, naive of me. ~sigh~ Where there's ocean front property, there's people and buildings. Don't have to like the buildings tho!!!
