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.
Whatever your desire, whatever your need, the Grand Strand offers something on everyone's to-do list. We have a variety of restaurants, retail stores, miniature golf, entertainment venues, charter fishing, water sports... and, of course, nothing but relaxation.

The Sanderling was a great house and our expectations were beyond what we imagined. The openness of the dining and living spaces made the house a lot brighter than the pictures show online. And the amazing covered back porch and new deck and stairs made our stay even better. Excellent location, too. Much quieter with less people and crowding. Very clean and well organized.

We made several request to maintenance before things were working. You pay for what you get. Kids had to wear shoes on deck and be careful of railings. Wood was very old. Two window air conditioners had to run along with regular air to keep house cool.

We enjoyed our short stay. I notified GC Realty that the draw blind across the sliding glass door was inoperable. It was in pieces. We couldn't draw it to cover the sliding door at night. I am sure the owner is aware because it looked like it had been that way for a long time.

This house is the perfect location between pier and inlet. We enjoyed our stay and loved the house. It is older and not as updated as some but it is perfect for a beach stay. We spent most of our time on the beach or on the screened in porch. It is very roomy out there with plenty of chairs for everyone. We have talked about staying here again next time. The customer service at Garden City Realty os also the best and we always use them when visiting Garden City.

The description of this location is accurate. When we arrived, we did have to wait extra time for check in due to waiting on the final inspection which was explained in an email may happen. House was still dirty. Shower door handle was broken, screen for back porch broken, floors a little uneven (from settling?), and you have to make your own bed upon arriving. Overall though, we were happy with our stay. Description does not boast a pool, but most houses around you have a pool, so you may spend your vacation a little jealous.

Asked for some reimbursement for Wi-Fi not working until Thursday after arriving on Saturday. So none of the 5 tvs worked until Thursday. Called to complain no response. Then on Saturday when we were packing up elevator didn’t work. What’s the deal subpar keeping property ready for the price as $5300.00 that we paid.

The house was as the pictures described. Our main complaint was that the floor was extremely dirty. Also the HVAC return air grille was caked with dust and the sofa was blocking more than have the return air duct. Don't know how it was still working properly. There were a lot of bugs(roaches) in the kitchen. The vertical blinds at the sliding glass door were broken. Garden City Realty offered to send someone out to fix but we declined.

We were very disappointed. My husband is handicapped and we rented the Sanderling because it had an elevator. The elevator did not work and when I called and reported it I was told maintenance would be there soon but they never arrived. We left on Thursday because my husband could no longer manage the stairs. We would have left Wednesday but we didn't want to drive home in the rain. The porch was nice but the rest was a disappointment.

Reviewer Comments:
Pros: great location, easy walk to the beach, house roomy, house had plenty of supplies, ocean deck is nice, many handicap items we were not aware of and did not need ( hospital bed, commode seats, walkers) plenty of games. Kitchen appliances were newer and nice. Cons: front porch railing and decking are loose and scary, house needs a good cleaning (walls in front left bedroom have dust bunnies everywhere) , could use new mattress & comforters, new blinds would help in kitchen and baths, baths have zero counter space (all toiletries stay in your bedroom), ocean deck could use a table and chairs. Never figured out the elevator ( no instructions for anything). Outside Needs a good pressure washing ( moldy) and paint would help. Place just needs updated, clear clutter and deep cleaning. Garden City Realty was great, upon arriving the WiFi didn’t work, stopped in Sunday morning around 9:30, by 10:30 Tim came by, saw the landscapers had cut the cable, he fixed and came to the beach to let us know, Tim showed great customer service!
