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.

Our Thanksgiving trip was great! The spacious well appointed kitchen and outdoor grill (for the turkey) was critical for this trip! Plenty of seating too! The open concept family room was perfect and the ocean view is the BEST! Beds were comfortable too! No complaints here!

The place is beautiful but needs major repairs and upgrades. Lots of rust throughout the home, mildew in the bathroom above showers/bathtubs. Kitchen area and living time area was beautiful. Elevator broke down twice. The front 2 decks are unsafe and buckling and my hubby and dad are in the home improvement areas and they said the two decks in front are unsafe and need repair. Please look into that for future guest.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was in a great location, perfect view and close to the ocean. The appliances are rather dated. The freezer door pops open when you close the fridge so make sure you check that!! The ice make makes about 12 cubes a day!! The outdoor furniture is mostly broke, with the exception of the loungers by the pool. Almost all the chairs were cracked and/or broken. We called maintenance for the elevatore but ended up fixing it ourselves. It's VERY slow!! The floors were dirty too. We got some cleaning stuff and did it ourselves but the sand must blow in from the beach! It was endless sand and grit! The beds are very uncomfortable too! But we managed to have a great time in spite of the little annoyances!!

Reviewer Comments:
We really loved the house. I had to call maintenance a couple of times and they were there quickly and took care of the problems. The pool was well maintained and cleaned during our stay. The staff of Garden City Realty were excellent. The area is great because it is close to everything we did while we were there. The biggest problem we had were the mattresses in the house. They are all older mattresses and some were sagging but they were all uncomfortable. It would be nice to see them upgraded for a comfortable nights sleep. Sometimes the water wouldn't stay hot when several people were taking showers. The house was great but upgraded mattresses would make it excellent.

Our vacation was great. This is our third time in this house.....but the neighbors on the right side of the if you are looking from the street were a nightmare. They yelled, screamed, and played LOUD music at night. The last night they were still at at 3 A.M. we called 911. Nothing was done. after the police left they shouted over and over,F...you neighbors. They were under our porch doing whatever and then something hit the side of the house. The noise was deafening. We called 911 again but they wouldn’t answer the door so that was that! We found out they were friends of the owners, so I doubt we will stay here again. We have a small child that did not need to hear those words!

Reviewer Comments:
Garden City Realty was top notch and very responsive. The property Southern Comfort was not clean even though I had requested it to be clean prior to our stay. The property needs some TLC (ie. Dirty on the outside(needs power washed), the walls had marks on them as well as some holes( needs painted and patched). The location was great for being considered second row. The kitchen was completely unorganized and needs improvement. Bedspreads and Mattress pads we dirty and need replaced.

Reviewer Comments:
The house had plenty of room for our large group. The decks off of most of the bedrooms, and living area, were great. There is an unobstructed view of the ocean from the main deck. There were nice rocking chairs on the decks. The furniture in the house was pretty nice and in good condition. The beach access was close and very convenient. The pool area was nice. There were several issues though. When we arrived the pool was dirty and full of debris. We had to make multiple phone calls before it was taken care of. We couldn’t use it the first day of our trip. The house itself could use some TLC. The main refrigerator was dirty and had a broken drawer, on top of being pretty small for a large house. There is a secondary dorm size fridge on the lower level. That didn’t make up for the problems with the main one. The bathrooms were all pretty dirty and could use new shower curtains (pink mold on the liners) and some intense scrubbing. The 3 bathrooms with bathtubs had dirty tubs due to soap scum etc, plus black mold on some of the shower knobs. We had babies on this trip that we were reluctant to put in the bathtubs bc they needed attention. The bathrooms looked like a good intense cleaning is in order. There was a good amount of sand on the living room floors when we arrived. We took the vacuum out right away trying to clean some of it up. The kitchen was also on the dirty side. You don’t want to have to scrub and clean someone else’s filth on vacation. We paid a lot of money for a weekly rental. You pay a cleaning fee too. The lack of cleanliness was unacceptable and disappointing. We had a nice vacation. There is room for improvement in this house. We don’t feel like we fully got what we paid for.

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed in lots of rentals over the years and this was by far the dirtiest. We walked in and the dirty laundry was still there. Most of the beds missing sheets, floors and countertops were sandy, hair in the showers, missing basic toiletries and mattress covers heavily stained. Clearly no cleaning had been done. Cleaning company brought sheets and toiletries, but we were already there too late to bring in cleaners. Just so unfortunate that we were having to clean as much as we did for as much as we paid.

We stayed here August 2022 & it was a great property. We have a large group of 18 and we fit perfectly. I definitely recommend. It’s walking distance to a sports bar and the pier, along with small shopping and an arcade. Best part is the beach is right across the street.

The Southern Comfort lived up to the photos and description. The property was well maintained and clean. The favorite gathering area was the front porch with the great ocean views. The pool was refreshing, it not a bit sandy, but I suppose that is to be expected. Please note, if you have small children, the fireworks on the beach at night can be quite loud. All in all, a great experience for my family.

We experienced many setbacks as soon as we arrived. The pool was not cleaned and the filter barely working. The TV was not working in the main liv in the main living room . Also two days I’m the elevator did not work! The decks needs a lot of improvement. For a house to be able toSleep a lot one fridge really isn’t enough. The maintenance crew was excellent that came and fixed each problem when they arrived , but for the money we paid for the week we shouldn’t have experienced all the problems ! The View is as great ! Is a positive about this house.
