Conway Real Estate
A Riverside Town of Friendly Neightbours, Historic Buildings and Ancient Oaks
Did You Know?
The city of Conway is one of the oldest towns in America, established in 1733, in what was then South Carolina's colonial frontier
Overlooking the Waccamaw River, Conway offers an appealing blend of small-town friendliness, modern conveniences, and old south charm. Among the oldest towns in America, Conway was established in 1733. The Conway area was home to the South Carolina Waccamaw Indians, whose name graces the rivers and region.
Conway was originally named Kingston to honor Great Britain's King George I. During the Revolutionary War, General Francis Marion operated in this region, waging a monumental campaign for American freedom. Following independence, the town was renamed Conwayborough (later shortened to Conway) in honor of Robert Conway, a veteran of the revolution and a prominent local legislator.
Through hard work Conway eventually flourished as South Carolina's outpost on the Waccamaw River. In the 1870's Conway boomed as an export center for timber products, shipping these products around the world. The railroad came to Conway in 1887; a few years later it was extended to the coast, launching what is now Myrtle Beach.
Today, like all areas much has changed, but Conway has still remained a pleasant riverside town of friendly neighbors, historic buildings and houses, and ancient live oaks
