Top Notch

Great house for a group getaway: comfy bedrooms with plenty of clean bathrooms; a spacious living/dining/kitchen space; lots of parking; pool with fire pit; and best of all, it's across the street from a lovely, wide, flat ocean beach. We would rent again. Communication with host was easy.

Great place to celebrate our friend getting married.

I would highly recommend this property if you are looking for a great time in Murrells Inlet. The house is extremely spacious with tons of room for a large amount of guests. Couldn’t have asked for a better owner, he was in constant contact about whatever we needed and both check in and check out were seamless. When we weren’t at the golf course we took advantage of the beautiful pool and backyard. The beach is a very close walk. Definitely will be staying here again the next time we visit South Carolina.

Great family house

We were there for the storm and the house was very equipped for an indoor stay. There were games, books, puzzles and coloring books for the children and the kitchen had every pot, pan, baking dish and utensil you could possibly want. When the sun finally came out it was a very close walk to the beach and there were plenty of chairs, toys and towels for all.

Fantastic home for large families

This property is the best we’ve stayed at in the Myrtle Beach area. We had a large group of all ages and everyone was well accommodated and had a great time. The home was very clean and well maintained. The street was quiet and just a short walk to the ocean. Karl was great and very responsive to any questions we had.

Beautiful property as pictured. Best property manager I’ve experienced after many VRBO rentals. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. We didn’t use pool or fire pit but both looked great. Elevator a must convenience. Would definitely rent again.
