About
Elsie's Playground at 1320 Celebrity Cir provides a free outdoor play option in the heart of Myrtle Beach's commercial entertainment district — near Broadway at the Beach but without the admission costs. For families spending a day at the Broadway at the Beach complex, Elsie's offers a natural play break where younger kids can run on actual playground equipment rather than rotating through paid activities.
The 4.5-star rating from 32 reviews is a good indicator of quality — the smaller review count reflects a playground that serves a specific local and visiting need rather than drawing destination visitors from across the Grand Strand. For families already in the Celebrity Cir area, it's a convenient and free resource.
As a free outdoor playground in an area dominated by paid commercial attractions, Elsie's serves a real function for families budget-managing their Myrtle Beach vacation. Kids who've been on paid rides all day sometimes just want straightforward playground time — swings, slides, and climbing equipment that they control on their own terms.
No hours are listed, suggesting it's an open access outdoor playground typical of public parks — likely accessible during daylight hours. Broadway at the Beach's surrounding amenities make this a natural stop within a broader complex visit.
