Cute Pet Friendly “Shack”

This historic older cottage is pet friendly and convenient to the Marshwalk. The best part is the large screened front porch for sitting and relaxing. The kitchen is large and well equipped, although we didn’t cook much at all on this visit. We mostly used the house for a place to sleep at night while we visited family in the area. Rebecca is great at communicating if you have any issues.

This is a Hidden Gem

This property had everything we needed. We especially liked the large kitchen and the spacious screened in porch in the front. And the fact that we were able to bring our dog with us was just fabulous. He had a great time being with us! We had relatives that live in Murrells Inlet and would definitely choose to stay here again when we visit.

Perfect Location - Lovely Home

Our first time in Murrells Inlet and we loved it! Home was charming and beautiful use of space.. we adored the wraparound porch and eat in kitchen was huge! We only use the master bedroom as it was just the two of us, but the bed was super comfortable, and the master bath extremely large, and the closet in that section was nice and big .. Location AWESOME ... we were only about a mile to all the restaurants and bars at the wharf area and an easy 10 minute drive to Surfside to the beach ... we would def stay here again - had a wonderful time!
