It is small but worked great for our family of 7! It is such a nice community! There is no longer a flat grill outside it is a charcoal one and the indoor pool was closed for renovations but that didn't stop us from having a fun time! Also having a golf cart to use was a HUGE plus and lots of fun! Would definitely go back!

Great stay

Great vacation. Owners very responsive. We had no issues. It’s not a full kitchen which wasn’t an issue for our group since we had a total of 4 properties and usually ate dinner together at the larger one. Will def be back to the Myrtle Beach area.

Pleased with our stay

We stayed at this apartment-style condo in Myrtle Beach for a 3-day golf trip and it couldn’t have been more convenient. Check-in was super smooth with a simple door code—no keys to worry about. The place was spotless and ready for us on arrival. While we didn’t use the golf cart that was available, it was a nice bonus to have. The condo was close to plenty of great courses and just 20-30 minutes from some of the top ones in the area. Also a quick 20-minute ride from the airport. Would definitely stay here again for our next golf trip!

Family vacation

Perfect for what we needed for our family of 7. We had plenty of room. We spent a lot of time outside, and the screened in room was good if you didn't want to be eaten by mosquitoes, but wanted to be part of the conversation. The beach was so close, and my grandon loved the splash pad.

Wonderfully hidden!!

This place is wonderful! Completely shaded, so you can sit out at the picnic table or screened in porch without getting burned. Bedrooms are great size, with walk in closets. Bathrooms are good size. Hidden on the back of a cul-de-sac, so no worries of continuous traffic. Close enough to the beach you can stroll right on out. Handicap accessible if you're visiting with someone in a wheelchair. Doorways wide enough to fit in and out. Host was very responsive and very helpful. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking!
