Georgetown County Reviews

Georgetown South Carolina is one of the most historical places and sights to see in South Carolina. With some of the most beautiful waterways and historical monuments you may ever see, you truly fall in love with this little southern town that sits on the Waccamaw river. Georgetown also has some of the best restaurants and true southern food you'll taste on the grand strand. If you ever get the chance to come and visit Georgetown you'll truly fall in love with this historic town.
Georgetown County is beautiful, family friendly, and has amazing, local seafood! I'm thankful for its focus and preservation of natural habitats. That said, I would love to see more well-rounded, transparent historical information/education provided on Georgetown County's past, particularly involved its plantations, rice fields, and racial inequalities (and how we can learn and improve from those histories).
I love the space and peacefulness of the County. But the town needs to more growth in the business area to ensure that the town has more jobs for the people of the town. The county need more entertainment thats local. Right now the majority or the town has to travel to Horry County or Charleston County for shopping, dinning and entertainment.
