This is an amazing house—definitely one of the best we’ve ever stayed in! We highly recommend this house. It was so relaxing to have a pet-friendly place with the added convenience of boat access for our boat to the Intracoastal Waterway.The owners, Cynthia and Mark, live right next door and were incredibly friendly and helpful whenever we had questions. Their kindness and hospitality added such a personal touch to our stay.The house itself was beautiful, the views were amazing, and everything made for a truly relaxing and enjoyable experience. We absolutely loved our second stay at this house and will happily be back again.

My family loved our stay. The host was great, communicated throughout the stay and the house was fantastic. Larger than it looks from the photos even. Super clean, modern, well decorated and spacious. My son wanted to buy it on the first day he loved it so much. My wife started shopping for some of the same decor for our house. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could. Stop thinking about it and book it. You won't regret it.

Cindy & Mark were both great to work with and the property is exceptionally clean and well-maintained. Truly enjoyed being close to all of the activities in Myrtle Beach, but having our own quiet and relaxing place to return to each night, while enjoying the waterway and amenities. Would definitely recommend this property and would return again in the future.
