South Carolina is a Southern state known for its genteel, Southern-hospitality. Columbia is the capital and many in the state's population of about 4 million people know that the sandy-white beaches of the Atlantic Ocean is the place to be. This state is also know for its outdoor living, with a number of mountainous terrain perfect for hiking, several large cities for the urban crowd and of course, the coast for all the sea-lovers.

However, not to be left out, the South Carolina casinos offer just as much fun as the beautiful beaches lining the South Carolina coast. While the numbers of casinos are not as numerous as they are in other states, South Carolina casinos choose to offer quality over quantity. They blend in with the beautiful landscape of South Carolina, but add a bit of spice to the Southern culture that dominates South Carolina.

The SunCruz Myrtle Beach is located in Little River and is one of the most popular casinos in South Carolina. There are more than 300 slot machines, a restaurant and more than 20 table games. This South Carolina casino boasts a smaller-scale Vegas-style vibe and is a favorite for locals and visitors alike.

The town of Little River also features the Southern Elegance Casino Cruise, which features more than 200 slots in an elegant setting. There is also a dining option with this South Carolina casino and is the perfect way to spend any evening with a loved one or a group of friends celebrating a night out on the town. This area of South Carolina is known for its natural beauty and the Southern Elegance Casino Cruise is no exception, with its stunning décor.

South Carolina also features a Native American facility in the Catawba High Stakes Bingo. This South Carolina casino is located in Rock Hill and some of the best bingo games found around South Carolina. High stakes bingo has been emerging on the gambling seen as a lucrative gambling option, and is a great choice for beginning and professional gamblers alike.

South Carolina casinos are reflective of the state's environment as a whole - laid-back, tourist-friendly facilities featuring variety, but not so much so that it comes as a shock to your senses. From the Southern hospitality to the variety of games and services, South Carolina casinos have carved out their own spot on the national casino scene.
