About

Savannah's Playground is the Myrtle Beach area's best-kept secret for families who find it — and with a 4.9-star rating from 2,597 reviews, it's barely a secret. The numbers tell the story: nearly 2,600 families have visited and given it a 4.9 out of 5, making it one of the highest-rated free attractions in the entire Grand Strand area, rivaling the ratings of high-quality paid experiences.

The playground earns those reviews through genuinely exceptional equipment and design. This isn't a standard city park playground with a climbing structure and some swings — Savannah's features elaborate multi-level play structures, creative themed elements, and the kind of thoughtful design that results in kids discovering new things to do after they've been there 45 minutes. The play structures have the quality and variety that kids would associate with a paid attraction.

All of it is free. There is no admission. Families on Myrtle Beach vacations who find Savannah's Playground often report it as an unexpected highlight — the kind of genuinely excellent experience that wasn't on the original itinerary but becomes a story worth telling.

Morning visits are recommended for the South Carolina outdoor summer reality: temperatures rise quickly, and playgrounds in direct sun become uncomfortable by late morning. Getting to Savannah's at 8-9AM gives families the best experience before the heat peaks.

For families building a Myrtle Beach itinerary, this is a slot that costs nothing and over-delivers. The coordinate puts it in the central Myrtle Beach area near Emmens Ave — call the listed number if you need to verify specific access details.
