You can’t beat southern charm and hospitality — not unless you get to experience it for free, that is.

HomeAway is running a contest right now offering the chance to win a free summer road trip to South Carolina. Get a $500 credit for a rental car, $1,000 to put toward a vacation rental for your lodging and free travel tips from Tasting Table and Refinery29.

HomeAway offers more than 950,000 vacation rental options. If you’re heading to South Carolina, here are a few of our favorite places to stay:

The Forest Beach House. At $256 a night, this might seem expensive, but this property sleeps 12. That’s just over $20 a night per person for a gorgeous, two-story, private house just steps to the beach. We’re talking four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a private pool, ocean views, a hot tub, five TVs, free Internet access and a stunning kitchen. It’s truly a home away from home for prices — and accommodations — that beat any hotel.

The Family All beach house: For a little more per night — $414 per night — you can stay in this Pawleys Island house directly on the beach. Get three levels of decks, a creek dock, ocean and creek views, a fireplace, a wall of windows and even an elevator. This 3,350-square-foot house sleeps 11, so once again, per person, the price per guest is low. Especially for this location.
