Conveniently located close to some of the best area attractions, Garden City Beach is directly south of Surfside Beach and ends on a peninsula at the mouth of Murrells Inlet. One of the most renowned attractions in Garden City Beach is the Pier at Garden City. Other points of interest include Marlin Quay Marina and restaurants Sara J's Seafood Restaurant, Gulfstream Café, and Original Sam's Corner.
Just south of Garden City Beach is Murrells Inlet, a seaside community considered the "Seafood Capital of South Carolina" and home to some of the nation's best golf courses. Once primarily a fishing village, the town is best known for the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, a half-mile-long boardwalk overlooking a pristine salt marsh, and the many award-winning restaurants along Highway 17 Business in the central business district.
Brookgreen Gardens, a sculpture garden and wildlife preserve built on four former rice plantations, is located slightly south of the MarshWalk. It features several themed gardens with American figurative sculptures, trails through several nature reserve ecosystems, and the Lowcountry Zoo.
If you're looking for places to shop, The Market Common, Broadway at the Beach, Barefoot Landing, two Tanger shopping outlets, Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and Promenade, and many more shopping facilities are all within an easy drive from Garden City Beach.
Looking for entertainment and attractions? Take in a show at Pirates Voyage, Medieval Times, Alabama Theater, The Carolina Opry, or Legends in Concert. Then visit SkyWheel Myrtle Beach, Ripley's Aquarium, WonderWorks, Ripley's Believe It Or Not Odditorium, Hollywood Wax Museum Entertainment Center, and The Pavilion Nostalgia Park.
Other points of interest close by include the waterfront community of Georgetown, the third oldest city in South Carolina and the second largest seaport in South Carolina, and historic Conway, with its downtown Riverwalk area nestled on the banks of the Waccamaw River. Both towns include fine dining, shopping, and historic sites.
Take a day trip to Charleston to experience shopping, a harbor cruise, a city carriage tour, or a plantation tour. Charleston is only 87 miles from Garden City Beach - approximately two hours. It's a picturesque and exquisitely preserved southern city with antebellum architecture, cobblestone streets, and historical landmarks.

House was a great location and spacious for our large group. Nice covered porch on the back with views and sounds of the ocean. We enjoyed the hot tub and pool but mostly the beach. House was clean but could use a little updating and maintenance. We would have liked 2 refrigerators because we had a large group and mainly cooked in.

Our family of four generations stayed at Ocean Air the first week of August 2014 and had a wonderful experience. The house was perfect for my Dad, age 93 (so grateful for the elevator) and the bedrooms with baths help provide privacy for the third generation and their families. The third and fourth generations enjoyed the proximity to the pier, and it became a ritual evening walk. The property was clean and well maintained, and I believe the owners have made an extra effort to think of the comfort of their guests. We loved the oceanfront location and the pool.

My family and I have stayed off and on at Ocean Air for the last 30 or more years. We love the house and the location! So much room and so comfortable. The dinner table is my favorite. We can all sit around that table together and have dinner. You can't go wrong with this house.I am upset about how late it is getting into the house on check in day. Garden City Realty says they cannot guarantee you can get in at 4:00 but the last couple times we have rented this house it's been late. This year we did not get in until 5:30. The people that rented before were out before 9:00. Then the Realty place wants you to let them know when you vacate the house. I understand that but that house should be ready by 4:00 or before. Maybe they need to hire more people.

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed at Ocean Air with our large family and it was absolutely perfect for us.The porch was stunning — spacious, beautifully furnished with Adirondack chairs, and ideal for any weather. On a stormy day, we sat under the deep covered porch, listening to the rain while still enjoying a front-row view of the ocean. Every evening, we gathered there to watch the sun sink into the horizon.The location couldn’t have been better. It’s far enough from public beach access points to keep the shore quiet and uncrowded, but still just minutes from grocery stores and great restaurants.The pool was spectacular — unique in that part of it sits under the porch, offering shade and a break from the sun after a full day on the beach.Inside, the kitchen was surprisingly large (much bigger than it looks in the photos) and well-equipped, and the spacious dining table was a dream — everyone in our group could sit together for dinner, which made for such special evenings.If we could change just one thing, it would be to add more living room seating. We all love to gather for movie nights, and with our big group, a sectional would be a huge upgrade so no one ends up on a floor pallet.Overall, Ocean Air was the perfect setting for our family’s beach week — so much so that we’ve already booked our stay for next year!

We are a group of friends who have traveled together for several years. The house had just about everything we needed. It was not as clean as it should have been. Also the pots and pans were so old the Teflon flacked off of them when we tried to cook. We would definitely rent this house again if they replace the pans and spend a little more time cleaning.

Great oceanfront house with plenty of room for extended family vacations. The beds were newer and there were plenty to choose from. The family and kitchen area is very roomy. The pool and hot tub are great amenities to have after a few hours on the beach. There were only a few cosmetic issues with the house but that goes with a rental property. Garden City Realty was very responsive to all of our needs. We will be back!

My group has been renting this home for years for our annual golf getaway. Overall I like the home. good location, lots of room. I was disappointed to find out that the pool is no longer heated. This was not told to me until a couple of days before arrival. I would recommend fixing the pool heater as it is unusable without. The home is starting to get tired. I would recommend a good cleaning, painting, and minor repairs. I know that my group will be investigating other properties if the pool is not heated.

Very nice home. It could have used some maintenance to the property. Nails were popping up on the deck. I know everyone goes to the beach for the sunrises, but some options to block out the sunrise would be awesome. Cleaning glad you reminded me. We moved to couch and chairs looking items we may have dropped. Found broken glass and we had several small children. We understand that the people who Cleaning only have a few hours to turn it around for the next guest.

Many things need repaired, water pipe from beach,rotten deck boards, soffit on deck. Needs paint outside and some inside. The $ that we paid was far to much for the condition. General cleaning was good on arrival. Staff was friendly. We would like to rent again in 2 years but only if condition improve.

Ocean Air was in nice location. Far enough away from the hustle, but close enough to go when wanted.We arrived to an unlocked home. Once inside the house was not very clean. Sand on floors, wooden dining table filthy and sticky, cob webs on stairs and several corners, baseboards and floors swept at best. Mildew/mold on atleast one shower curtain. Sheets supplied though wrapped as clean had stains on them. Not enough pillowcases as pillows. Several bath towels where worn or small holes. Broken rocking chair on porch. The porch ceiling needs repair as does ceiling in kitchen area. Pool had sand, buy guess that's hard to escape. Pool person came to clean and accused us of taking some timer thing. My son informed her this is how it was when we arrived. She made comment well it was here Saturday. Then said it's no big deal. Yes, it is when we have no clue what it is or how a hose was apparently moved. We arrived on Saturday to all trash cans at curb full. Had to call on Wednesday as trash (including lots additional still not picked up. We did call about several of these issues. New sheets delivered. Missing towels/wash clothes delivered. Removal of broken rocking chair. Trash picked up. Said they would speak to cleaning crew. Kitchen was in total disarray. No sets of pots/pans. Not enough silverware. Hodge podge of things. For the $ paid this was the worse experience in our visits to NC/SC. With a little TLC and a more "aware" cleaning/rental company this place would be perfect!

We have stayed at Ocean Air a few times. The living area doesn't have enough seating for a house this size. Outdoor shower did not work. Maintenance came and hooked up a hose but the next day someone came and said the hose needs to be in the pool because it has a leak. They put it on a timer so we couldn't use it. The kitchen needs updated appliances and more pots and pans and bowls. When you pay $15000 for a house it should be immaculate! love the location but wont stay at Ocean air again! I do like Garden City Realty!

Had a great time here at this cottage. Would suggest that realty company look at the dishwasher nearest the road (north). It is missing some rollers which made it difficult to pull out and push in on the bottom. Also, the dishwasher nearest the ocean (south) may also be missing a roller or two on the bottom as well. Thanks for furnishing the linens, Garden City Realty. The pool was always clean. We were all thankful for the elevator what with all of our luggage and supplies for the house. The master bedroom has a duct or something hanging from the ceiling. Also, one of the master bathroom shower heads is missing.
