Ocean Forest Hotel postcards
Description
Tom McCutchen remembers:
The Ocean Forest Hotel has long been torn down but it was magnificent.
My parents were wonderful dance partners and went there to dance in one of the ballrooms after they were married on a few special occasions. I remember them taking me to Myrtle Beach in the summer of 1960. At the time, we lived in West Virginia. It had an impressive presence as you approached from Kings Highway US 17 with an enormous roundabout and the bellman would open the car doors and direct everyone into the lobby. For a youngster, it really was a special treat!
Mr. Dexter Stuckey and a business partner bought the property in 1973.
