Sleeps 20, Private Pool, Walk to Beach

Bring the whole crew. Memories on Magnolia sits between the marsh and the ocean, about a block from each. It sleeps 20, and every one of the 6 bedrooms has its own bathroom, so nobody waits in line in the morning. Swim in the private fenced pool, walk about 3 minutes to the beach, the Garden City Pier or the arcade, then watch the sunset over the marsh from the deck.



The area: Garden City Beach is one of 14 communities along the 60-mile Grand Strand, and it's the quieter, family end of it. The pier has fishing, live music, karaoke and an arcade, and older kids can walk there on their own. Kids love crabbing in the marsh, and for more adventure you can go parasailing, rent a jet ski on the inlet or take an eco boat tour out of Murrells Inlet. The MarshWalk is about 15 minutes away for seafood, golf courses are within about 20 minutes, and Myrtle Beach's boardwalk is about 20 minutes north.



Sleeping (up to 20 guests): 4 bedrooms with a queen bed, 2 bunk rooms with 2 sets of twin bunks each, a twin futon in the upstairs media room and a rolling cot for the living room. The beds sleep 18; groups of up to 20 usually have small kids share a bunk.



Bathrooms: 6 full baths and a half bath. Every bedroom has its own. The primary bath has a tub, a separate shower and a double vanity.



Kitchen and living: the main living area is on the first floor. Stainless appliances, two refrigerators, dishwasher, Keurig and a large island with stools. Open living and dining area, a bar corner, board games, two washer and dryer sets, Wi-Fi, a smart TV in every bedroom, a baby gate, and starter supplies (toilet paper, paper towels, soap and shampoo).



Outside: private fenced pool with loungers (open year-round, not heated), a large deck looking out over the marsh, a front porch with rocking chairs, a patio with picnic tables, and an outdoor shower. Driveway parking for 5 cars (groups have fit up to 8).



Stairs: the house is raised, with stairs up to the main living area on the first floor and to the bedrooms. It isn't wheelchair accessible. If anyone in your group has trouble with stairs, message us before you book.



Getting in: self check-in with a keypad lock. We send your door code through Vrbo messages on arrival day.



Nature's neighbors: being close to both the marsh and the ocean, you may see the occasional insect, so we have the house treated for pests every two weeks. Salt air comes with beach living too, and we keep up with maintenance so it doesn't wear on the house.



Weather and environment: being a block from the marsh and the ocean, the street can flood during king tides and heavy storms. We have measures in place to handle it, and we'll keep you posted if a storm or king tide is on the way.



Good to know: there's no lifeguard at the pool, and its dark plaster finish makes the water look darker than a white pool. There's no grill at the house, but we can send you local companies that deliver grills, beach chairs and umbrellas.



Cameras and monitoring: 8 outdoor cameras and none inside. Two cover the backyard, one the side yard, one the lower outside door, one the outside stairwell entrance, and three the driveway. The two backyard cameras view the pool deck. None view the outdoor shower. Two Minut monitors inside, on the first and second floors, measure noise levels and detect smoke. They do not record audio.



Before you book (these terms are also in our rental agreement):

• The guest who makes the reservation must be 25 or older and stay for the whole reservation.

• South Carolina law requires a written rental agreement (S.C. Code §27-50-240). After booking, you sign it online and upload a photo ID. We use the ID only to confirm identity and age, and we delete it within 14 days after checkout unless it's needed for a damage claim.

• No more than 20 people may stay overnight, including children. Visitors must leave by 10:00 p.m., and no more than 20 people may be at the house at any time.

• Quiet hours are 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.

• No pets or emotional support animals.

• No parties or events.

• No smoking or vaping inside. Smoking is allowed outside, away from windows and doors. Smoking or vaping inside results in a $500 smoking cleanup charge.

• Other charges apply only if needed: the actual cost of extra cleaning beyond normal use, damage repair, or a lockout. For Vrbo bookings, we request these through Vrbo.
