Very quaint area to enjoy for a nice afternoon. The shop owners are pleasant and plenty of eateries to address every appetit in the family. We really enjoyed the live free music while sitting in the park. All visitors were practicing social distancing and wearing a mask when required. It was a great example of how we can open the country and control the virus by being considerate and careful.

I had the chance to visit this place in July 2019.I fell in love with this beautiful little town.This weekend when we were heading to Pawleys Island we passed near by and I wanted to stop again to show this amazing town to my roommate.It was as beautiful as I remembered. If you are around this area I must stop and go visit. It such a beautiful town with a lot of history.

Nice but a lot of the shops have closed for good. A lot of empty spots. Just doesn’t hit on much at all. There are a few shops but that is all. Need more shops downtown. Several ice cream places and restaurants that are good. River room is great!This downtown area has potential and needs to be brought back to life.

I spent my formative years in Georgetown - it was a wonderful place to grow up - and Im proud of the work the town has done to improve the downtown experience. I hope the businesses can keep things going despite the virus kerfuffle! The town has endured a lot, and I hope it continues to get better and better.

You hear a lot of horror stories about Georgetown, and what it use to be. And what the crime rate may be like since its close to myrtle. But honestly, I went here alone for a day trip, and there is no crime factor or feel here. It was lovely, very laid back and had a home town feel. Def a spot to hit for some shopping and food.

We have lived near Georgetown for nearly a year and had not taken the time to check out downtown or the Riverwalk and what a mistake this was a wonderful place to hang out one evening they still had some Christmas lights up at the Museum and we will absolutely go back during peak season and enjoy the special atmosphere

Low key low country! Thinking of retiring here. Real estate is very reasonable, beautiful historic homes. Expensive Charleston nearby will change that. Great restaurants, waterfront, boutiques, friendly people, more diverse than we expected (happily)

The last time we were in Georgetown was 45 years ago. This time around the historic district has been fully developed and who knew that Georgetown is the third oldest town in the state. Lots of interesting old brick buildings and art galleries. Nice places to eat with outdoor dining. Beautiful old homes, too.

This is a lovely boardwalk!! The restaurants along have little ramps to the boardwalk so you can come and go. There is a nice open grass area in the middle so kids can run around and benches to sit. But definitely remember to wear big spray as they were thick there by the water. The shops close at 7pm so make sure you go in plenty of time. I missed the shopping so cant speak too much for the shops in the area. Friends on the trip with us said City Trends was a place for great deals.

Always when i am in George town, it seems like magic. All of the older crowds seem to be in sync with each other no matter the race.
