Some snowbirds are just tired of going the whole way to Florida and are hoping to find something closer to the northern relatives they leave behind every year. Others that are newly retired are faced with the opportunity to spend part of their winter in a warmer climate for the first time in their lives.

You can find and secure a Myrtle Beach winter rental from a large assortment of homes starting at this time of the year.
