Dillon, South Carolina - South of the Border

Having been at South of the Border as a child traveling from the North to Florida, I remember it well. However, that was 30 years ago, and unfortunately it is not the same. The buildings are in disrepair, few travelers were visiting, and it reminded me of a modern day ghost town. Certainly I would not utilize their accommodations, as the exterior of the buildings are in great need of paint and general repairs. Several of the buildings were closed. The glitz I remember as a young child is now gone....how sad. [Gail O'Connell, 07/04/2007]
