Additionally, Garden City Realty does not ensure these items are available as shown. This property may have video, audio or similar exterior surveillance equipment.

    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.

Loved this place for many years

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I used to stay in this condo every year, even before the current owners took over and I have never been more disappointed. This trip was to visit after my son’s 9 month deployment (he left when his baby was 1 week old) and to have my fiancé tryout a hot tub for his arthritis before spending money on one. Oh and to share with my family who is local I just got engaged. When inquiring about the water being off, maintenance called back he told me the hot tub was not working! WHAT? That was half the reason for booking THIS condo. Fast forward to dinner and we went to take the chicken out of the oven to find no oven mitts. Tried to give the baby a bath and the plug in the tub was broken off and it is a challenge when the one glass door where you turn the water on doesn’t open. Master toilet doesn’t fill all the time, had to use a pocket knife to cut up chicken as knives were so dull, and more....When I contacted the office about all my dissatisfaction I was offered a small credit. At this point I feel we need to say goodbye to this wonderful condo we have loved for many many years.

We have stayed in this unit many years, before the remodel and after all the beautiful work was done, and I must say renting sure takes it's toll on things in just a few years, people should treat it better that's for sure it's a really nice unit.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was wonderful! The Penthouse was AMAZING and the views were out of this world. The only downfall was the sand dredging and the machinery noise and some beach access limitations. It was a pretty neat learning experience....but again, the property was amazing.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: WONDERFUL!!!! We have been staying in the Surfmaster or One Ocean Place building for years and this was the best yet. This condo is AMAZING!! Everything was exactly as described and the pictures actually do not do justice for how incredible this unit is. The beds are wonderful, the air conditioning actually kept the temp steady, the stove is in good working condition, the frig works great!, living room furniture-so comfy and the balcony and furniture on it were absolutely wonderful--so many times the balcony furniture is well...just cheesy but not here!!! The room was clean when we arrived and they cleaned the hot tub 2 or 3 times during the week we were there. CANNOT say enough positive things about this penthouse!!!! Will definitely stay in this unit again.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at the Surfmaster, with exception to the results of the storm that had come just prior to our stay. This could not have been prevented. The condo we rented was great and we enjoyed our time there. The unit was very clean and ready for us to occupy when we arrived. Our only regret was the elevators not working. My wife and I are retired and in our 70s Ten levels of stairs were very demanding. We have been coming to Myrtle Beach area every year for nearly 50 years and have stayed at the Surfmaster a number of times in the past.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we had a great stay. However, the homeowner had the main closet so full of paint and junk that we had nowhere to put things. You also need to provide a vacuum that cleans hard surfaces. A cheap broom does not get the sand up.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Penthouse I is the place to be if you are going to Surf Master! The only suggestion I would add is that there needs to be more rugs in front of the balcony access doors. If the floor gets wet there, it could cause people to slip and fall. Otherwise, it was a great stay and we WILL BE BACK next year!

summer of 2022 2 weeks in Penthouse I

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit is well kept, we make an effort every year to rent this unit. The weather was great for both weeks we were there, some of our Sons and Daughters and families also had units in Surfmaster during our stay. Only problem we had was getting into the unit when we arrived, we heard the well played record of understaffed etc, frankly that is only an easy excuse for almost anything anymore, real reason might be the tenant before us did not get out in time, I would suggest rather than pocket a fee or fine you would give a credit to the folks being held up because you are unable to get them in on time, we have stayed with Garden City Reality for over 30 years and almost always were in units well before 4pm, this was the only problem we had this season, the staff that cleaned the unit prior to us getting in were hard working wonderful people, hopefully you can fix the problem, or it just maybe you feel the customer will keep right on renting no matter what the what happens, that would not be good judgement on your part, again only problem we had, but not one I want to experience again, thanks

Plenty of towels, etc. We would definitely come back to the room. It was our first time in the Penthouse area and we really enjoyed it. We will be back for a prior booked vacation in September.

Incredible vacation

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Surfmaster penthouse I was magnificent!! My guests and I were in awe of the property. Will definitely be renting this penthouse again. It had everything we needed from cooking to wine drinking!! I could have used a step stool to get on either of the kings, but the doubles were fine. Appliances.. toaster oven, fabulous fridge and that quiet dishwasher!! If there had been a teak bench in the master shower.. I’d have thought I was in a sauna!! Can’t wait to return. We ate at the penthouse every day so no reviews for the restaurants.. with those views.. Sunsets....dolphin pods... why go anywhere!!
