Myrtle Beach Low-Country Oyster Roast Celebrates Decades Of Success.
Times have changed, technology has changed, but some things are appreciated for remaining exactly the same as they were decades ago. For over 40 years Sea Mist Oceanfront Resort has served up a grande, All-You-Can-Eat Low-Country Oyter Roast located under the ancient oaks draped in Spanish Moss in their Yaupon Parking Lot. People of all ages from all markets staying at the resort gather as one collective to enjoy the succulent oysters, scattered steaming hot across the weathered wooden tables. It is as though time has stood still, as Oysterers take a moment to appreciate the breeze in the trees, the fellowship, and good old fashion hospitality.

We are also very appreciative of all the bids and interest we received."
The other three bidders were Asheville/UNC Asheville, Rock Hill/Winthrop University and Winston-Salem, N.C.
