Our Story

From the mountains of West Virginia
to the shores of South Carolina

Dolly Sods is a beloved wilderness area in the mountains of West Virginia — and the ancestral home of our family, whose name was once spelled Dahle, original settlers of that rugged land centuries ago.

When we found our little piece of paradise on the South Carolina coast, we knew exactly what to name it. Dolly Sands — our family's claim on the sand, an echo of the mountains back home. From the highlands to the shore, same family, same spirit, two completely different landscapes.

We designed every inch of this house ourselves — the pool-blue exterior, the flamingo pink door, the gold accents, the coastal art, the cozy bedrooms — because we believe a vacation rental should feel like a home that loves you back.

What's Included

Everything you need.
Nothing you have to haul.

🏖️

Beach Ready

Beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels are all provided. Show up, walk to the beach, and enjoy. We've thought of everything so you don't have to pack it.

🛺

Golf Cart Included

A WVU-proud golf cart comes with the house — perfect for exploring the campground, getting to the beach, or cruising to the amenities. It's part of the Dolly Sands experience.

🍳

Full Kitchen

Fully equipped kitchen with full-size appliances, a Keurig coffee maker, and everything you need to cook a full meal or just grab a morning coffee before hitting the beach.

👕

Washer & Dryer

LG stacked washer and dryer right in the house. Pack light — you can do laundry during your stay. A game-changer for families and longer visits.

🔥

Gas Grill & Covered Porch

A large covered porch with outdoor seating, string lights, ceiling fan, and a gas grill. Perfect for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or a beachside cookout any night of the week.

🔒

Gated & Secure

Ocean Lakes is a gated community with 24-hour security. Relax knowing your family and belongings are safe. It's one of the reasons guests come back year after year.

The Campground

Don't be fooled by the word "campground"

Ocean Lakes Family Campground in Surfside Beach is one of the most amenity-packed beach destinations on the East Coast. A water park, multiple pools, mini golf, a game center, a dog park, live entertainment, a café, a market, golf cart rentals, and over a mile of pristine oceanfront — all gated, all secured, all included with your stay at Dolly Sands.

Closer to the charm of Murrells Inlet than the bustle of downtown Myrtle Beach — this is the Grand Strand the way it's meant to be enjoyed.
