Some suggestions for a novice!

I am a neophyte with respect to Myrtle Beach. We are thinking of making our venture to the area late August. We are a family of 5 (2 adults, G16, G9 and B9). We might or might bring our nephew, age 13.

Consequently, we are looking for accomodations with 3 bedrooms. I found what appears to be acceptable lodging so far at Forest Dunes and Ocean Reef that seem reasonable. Are these OK places to stay or can I do better for less that $1300 for a week?

Thanks....
