This property is wonderful. It's close walking distance to the beach, well stocked, and the host is easy to reach. We used the bikes, the hammocks, the pool, all of it. We had 16 people and it was very comfortable. Highly recommend!

A wonderful home, close to the beach with ALL of the amenities you would ever need. Prior guests leave cooking items in the pantry that are not expired which makes it easy to cook meals. Why? Because this home is so inviting. Comfortable living area, grill, green egg make it wonderful to enjoy meals with friends and family. The pool is great and great for children after a beach day or for an option if the beach is not desired. New washer and dryers on both levels, new dishwasher and refrigerators. Wonderful place to stay. Strongly recommend it.

Our family has been coming to Grayton Beach since 2010, and this was our 5th or 6th stay at Magnolia Hill. Beautiful, spacious home good for large families. It's a quick, easy walk to the beach. The house has a ton of beach chairs/umbrellas/sand/pools toys and bikes available, and there's numerous books and games for rainy days. Our family spent a lot of time in the pool, and on the screened in porch. The kitchen is well equipped for all your cooking needs, and the beds are nice. We've enjoyed every stay, and never want to leave! Mrs. Cooper was responsive to messages and answered any questions we had.

We are a large family of 19, and finding a house that meets all of our needs is difficult. This house checked all our boxes! Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and living space for all. The kitchen was well stocked and perfect for meal preparation. The screened-in porch was our favorite spot! The bikes, pool, hammocks, and closet full of beach supplies were just icing on the cake. We come to the beach for the beach, and this was the best experience we have ever had on 30A. It was a short stroll to the beach, and there were no stairs on the boardwalk. The weather and water were perfect during our stay, and watching fireworks from the beach was an experience we won't soon forget. There was a minor snafu when we arrived, but the owner quickly rectified the situation. She was great to work with, and we plan to be return guests!
