The Neighborhood: Located on Yaupon Ave., on the East side of Hwy 17 and just a short golf cart ride across the marsh to the spectacular Garden City Beaches, you will find our duplex in a quiet neighborhood, just enough away from the noise and bustle of the more crowded properties closer to the beach. You will find 3 grocery stores within 10 minutes of the location as well as several fantastic local restaurants and the Murrells Inlet Marsh walk within 10 minutes or less. Garden City Beach is known for being family friendly with a laid back pace of life. Come see why guests return here every year for their annual beach getaway!

Good for the price. The workmanship could have been better on the flip. There should be a book or sheet of things to do and places to go. The checkin process and checkout process was very easy.
