About this property

Family/Pet Friendly Riverfront Cottage with private Fishing Deck and Boat Dock.

Kick back and enjoy the peace and quiet of a forested, riverfront hideaway with easy access to everything Myrtle Beach and Conway offer. This spacious, cozy cottage sits on .7 acres right beside the Waccamaw River, just a quarter mile from the Hwy 22/905 junction—making it a quick hop to Barefoot Landing, Tanger Outlets, North Myrtle Beach, Conway, and nearby golf.
The cottage is stocked with everything you need for a relaxed stay. You’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, a wood burning fireplace, washer and dryer, beach towels, chairs, and toys. Families are covered too, with a Pack n Play, high chair, and baby monitor. Games and puzzles make rainy days easy, and the home comes fully supplied with toiletries, towels, bedding, laundry soap, baking basics, and coffee essentials.
A 10×20 screened deck lets you enjoy the outdoors without the bugs, while a large open deck with built in benches is perfect for quiet evenings. Down by the water, you’ll have your own fishing deck and a brand new boat dock for exploring the river by boat (bring your own—there’s a public launch just 3 miles away). A fully fenced yard helps keep the dogs happy. Easy check-out means you don't have to clean before you leave.

Thanks, Janice! We can't bear the thought of guests arriving and sharing one roll of TP until they can get to the store. Or having to pack their cars with all sorts of supplies to fish or head to the beach. We want them to kick back and enjoy!

Our family had a great time staying at the Boyd's Conway property. It was nice being within driving distance of everything, but being able to retreat to a nice quiet home when you were ready. We brought our Zoey with us so having the fenced in yard was a major plus. The house had literally anything you could need on vacation to be comfortable. The only regret we have is not staying longer!

We were in the area for my granddaughter’s wedding. The house was perfect! Very pet friendly! And for the icing on the cake-the back yard is amazing. Beautifully fenced with a gate opening to a fire pit and dock on the Waccamaw River. It was fantastic. We hope to go back when we can relax totally!! Thank you!!

We cannot say enough about our stay on the riverfront cottage on Waccamaw river! Gale, our host, was super communicative, and provided us with all of the information and details we needed for the area, the house, and any and all gadgets and appliances. The house being fully stocked with linens, dishes, appliances, paper goods, etc made it so easy for us to focus on having a good time seeing Myrtle Beach all week. This house is perfect for the rural getaway feel with still being close to everything. The view alone is worth it! Hoping to stay next year for what will be our annual trip to see family in SC.

This was our second stay in this house. It is pretty special. House is fully stocked with everything you need more. We enjoyed sunsets from the new floating dock, fishing, and bird watching. My very tall husband was able to enjoy a bath in the very large tub! It’s easy to get to a lot of attractions from this house but we spent most of our time at the beach and hanging around the river. Host is very fast to respond. We hope to be back soon as this is one of our favorite houses to vacation at. Thanks again!

About the host

Hosted by Gale Boyd

Host profile image
Property values in our state skyrocketed during the pandemic and we wondered if we could find something in a pleasant place that we could actually afford. We did our homework and chose Myrtle Beach sight unseen. Our first trip here was to look at property. Of course, we started at the beachfront. But we gradually worked our way off the beaten path and away from the maddening crowds.

Why they chose this property

We were stunned by this property. The location was so quiet and felt so rural but it was located just a couple of blocks from the junction of the 22 (to the beach) and the 905 (to downtown Conway). As we began to improve and furnish the house, it became a dream come true for us. We became addicted to just sitting in the backyard and watching the squirrels and birds and the ever-changing light on the Waccamaw River. With a fire going in the fireplace inside, the ambiance just captivated us. And eating lunch in the screened porch topped it off. Paradise.

What makes this property unique

We've already had lots of family come to visit. We got into the routine of going to Windy Hill Beach in the late afternoon every single day while enjoying the gazillions of attractions in the Myrtle Beach area during the mornings and after dark. We've been careful to provide lots of amenities so everyone will feel at home and welcome. Enjoy!
