The Gail is clean, cozy, and a wonderful place to stay. Very convenient to the beach and Bev is an absolutely wonderful host. I look forward to returning again!
The Gail was everything we’d hoped for! The fenced in backyard for our dog and being just a quick little walk from the beach was amazing. The house itself was so charming and cute… perfect size for us! Bev was the absolute sweetest and just genuinely so kind. We LOVED having her right next door for anything… we can’t wait until our next MB trip-we will absolutely be booking the Gail!!!

I could not have expected more wonderful guests! Their children were precious and that wonderful pup Harvey was the best. Thank you guys for taking such good care of The Gail. You are welcome forever!!
Let me start by saying Bev was the best host, she’s great! She has a charming cottage in a great location! The puppies enjoyed their time in the fenced in yard and had a great time at the ocean! Couldn’t have asked for a better place! Thank you Bev for sharing your place with us!

Thank you Vinnie and Lisa! What wonderful guests you were + 2 fur babies. You are most welcome ANYTIME.
We had a lovely stay in this home. Only a few blocks from the ocean making it convenient for the family. The space was comfortable and the owner thought of the little things like having a Kroger store card for groceries and supplying a bag of ice in the freezer. The owner supplied beach chairs and toys and everything perfect for a stay at the beach. The yard was perfect for our dog and so glad we were able to bring him along.

Thank you for spending time here! You were wonderful guests, and I hope you will return.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at The Gail on Havens. The cozy cottage is in a nice neighborhood and is an easy five minute walk to the beach. It was clean and well stocked. The front and back porches are covered and there was a nice fenced area of the back yard for our Yorkie. Bev was the perfect host and responded immediately to any questions we had. We will be returning!

You were PERFECT guests! Thank you for such wonderful cleaning. You are
Just as advertised, except no mention of the ring doorbell. Very clean, which is the most important for me. Great location, walk to beach in a very quiet area. Hostess Bev is right next door for anything you need. Only 2 of us and our dog, but plenty of room for a family.

Thank you Tammy! You guys barely left a trace at The Gail. You are most welcome anytime in the future. Also, I appreciate the Ring reminder on the front porch. It surveys the street traffic and also allows for remote check in when necessary. Again, thanks for the review and for spending your time in North Myrtle Beach.
We have been to NMB many times and for the first time rented a stand alone cottage and did we ever find a jewel of a location. Beverly is a great host, answers your inquiries promptly and fixes any issues with grace and speed. We brought our two dogs along this time and the yard was well fenced and large enough for them to do their rough and tumble whenever they pleased. We would highly recommend the Gail on Haven and will definitely stay there again.
Beverly is an incredible host. She was very accommodating and met us on the property as soon as we arrived to greet us and give a tour of the home. The home is so cute and cozy. We felt
very safe and the neighborhood is also full of amazing individuals. The area is very ideal with so many things to do. I hope if we ever vacation to the area again that there are avaliable dates for this home because we would choose it every time! I loved that we had all we needed here including extra linen, washer and dryer, full sized fridge, games to play inside and outside, and even though we didn't use it, there was an option to rent her personal golf cart. 10/10

It was an extreme pleasure hosting your family! Thank you for your kind words and for staying at the Gail. Hope to see your family again!
The Gail was a delight to spend our time in during our visit to the beach. Our family is so grateful for the clean, comfortable, and welcoming atmosphere we enjoyed there. We so appreciated the fenced yard for our pup so she could run and play off leash safely; the outdoor sitting areas (front porch and back deck), and the stocked firepit, even though we didn't have a chance to use it during this stay. There were yard games available, along with items in the outdoor trunk - our son was so excited to find a boogie board to borrow since we forgot to pack ours! The location was fantastic in relation to the beach as it was a quick walk to enjoy the sand, surf, and sunrises! The lovely, thoughtful, and accommodating owner, Beverly, was so kind to greet us, and was very responsive from the moment we first made the reservation. The only thing we would change is staying a little longer so we could better enjoy the space. Thankful for the memories made at The Gail and hope to get back to this special place again sometime!
