We had such a lovely stay at this cozy, pet-friendly home in Murrells Inlet. The house was clean, comfortable, and perfectly located. We enjoyed seeing the Thousand Lights, had great dinner reservations nearby, and even had an excellent lunch at Frank’s in Georgetown. A charming, quiet spot that made our visit easy and relaxing. Highly recommend for anyone traveling with pets

The house was perfect for us and our fur baby. It had everything we needed and was a nice surprise to see the delicious cookies on the counter as well as the bottle water by our bedside. Had a very nice fenced in backyard. We are already looking for dates to return. Was a great location for walking to the marshwalk.

Wonderful house with everything you need

The stay was wonderful, the house was exactly as described and perfect for what we needed. They made sure you have everything you need from linen, towels, and even fresh baked cookies when we arrived. The house is right on the main strip so everything is close. The property was great and the setup and yard was perfect for my dog. They also were very responsive. Overall it was a wonderful trip. Will stay again

Great Cottage

We had a great stay. Welcomed with cookies, bedside water and mints along with great toiletries for the forgotten ones! Easy check in and out. Even left poopy bags and bowls for my pups. The only item I would add it a tv to the bedrooms 😉 but that’s just me. Great location and huge yard for those going for bike or car functions that you have a tray!! Will keep on my saved for return for sure.

Beach trip with grandson

This small, cozy cottage was just right for a weeks stay for me, my wife, and our 11 year old grandson. Michael was a great host and available when we needed him. My wife found the back screened porch to be her favorite spot. The backyard was a good place to play catch. We rented bikes which we rode to and in Hutchinson State Park. Enjoyed a kayak trip though the salt marsh at high tide. Location is convenient both to the numerous restaurants and to the State park. We used the pass to the park almost every day.

Really cute cottage, nice location.

Just down the road are plenty of different restaurants, 5 minute ride to the beach. Cottage is cute, nice screened in back porch, plus a 1/2 bathroom in the master bedroom. The cottage needs a little bit of upkeep, ceiling in the bathroom needs to be touched up, and the pantry, something smells like maybe cat urine? Not really sure, but we could smell it. Coffee pot is missing the reusable coffee ground basket, as long as you use 2 filters you don't get as many grinds in your coffee. Well worth the money and again a great location.

Right at home.

I come to the Myrtle beach area for a break from the cold every spring and usually stay in a resort location. This year i brought my dogs and the resort was not flexible on the weight restriction for my fat pup. We made the two day treck and were so happy when we got to the house!! Our dogs immediately were comfortable in this cozy cottage. The kitchen is set up perfectly for a person who loves to cook!! I loved the flow which made cleaning up as you cook effortless! The screened in back porch was a hit with all of us as well. Spent hours lounging around out there. Michael has really thought of everything a traveler may need and may have forgot to pack. Being greeted with fresh baked cookies was a beautiful touch. I highly recommend and will book again in the future. Thank you for letting us stay in your cozy cottage. ✨️

Quaint Uncleaned Cottage

My husband and I recently stayed at Inlet Cottage. Quaint? yes. Dirty? Very much so. All of the air vents and fans were filled with caked on dirty dust. The tub would not hold water so a hand towell was used. The trash can in the backyard was never dumped and our trash had to remain on the screened porch. If the smell of the utility closet was any indication, management has done little to go the extra mile in living up to its description as being "clean". Although the beds were comfortable, they are full size and not designed for anyone taller than 5'5. Location was good. Access to Huntington state park was a treat as well. Its sad when good money is spent on your vacation. But, expectations aren't fully met. Pictures available upon request.

Great weekend stay!

My husband, dog and I really enjoyed our stay at this cute cottage in Murrels inlet. Had all the amenities you could need. We loved the screened in patio and used it a lot! We were even left cookies, thank you so much as they were delicious! Loved the complimentary water bottles as well. We would definitely stay here again. The only reason why I did not give it 5 stars is because there's a bit of a moldy/musty smell that's very strong by the washing machines. Otherwise, everything was truly great! Thanks again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean, well decorated, and was even stocked with plenty of basic essentials. Very comfortable. Nice and quiet at night, enjoyable to sit out back on the screened in porch. Close to anything you could want to see or do; beach, seafood restaurant, putt putt golf, shopping, etc. Would definitely stay here again.
