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.

We really enjoyed our stay and the location was great! The house was clean and very nice. The one difficult thing was that my husband couldnât sleep in the master bedroom because the air conditioner was very loud and made a noise that kept him up the first night so he slept on the couch for the rest of the time.

This is our 3rd year staying at Better Twin. We love the location. Very short walk to the beach. The house layout works well for our family, the pool is great. Kitchen utensils and pots definitely need an upgrade, can barely open a can with the can opener. Not a sharp knife anywhere.

The neighbors live all year round and were very nice. And I can't say enough how nice the family was that owned the home. We really hope to come back next February. And Garden City Realty is the best company to work with, thanks Robin!

First time in a surfside and we loved it!We loved having our own pool (we typically stay in condos) I like to lay in the sun so the amount of shade the pool gets from the tree is a negative for me but my husband liked it!We really enjoyed the location and we rented a golf cart to enjoy and I would definitely recommend that! All in all the home was nice and the location was great (first time not being ocean front and didnât really mind) honestly the walk to the beach was just as quick as getting on an elevator and walking through everything at the condos!

Reviewer Comments:
The location was great! Nice easy walk to beach. Loved that the rental was dog friendly. The pool is great however the chairs and table at the pool are dirty and the cushion is disgusting and needs updated. The rental home itself needs some updates. Both decks have old furniture and the cushions are disgusting. The one deck has broken furniture on it. The dryer takes hours to dry clothes. The stairs have nails coming up through the carpet. Several times we stepped on them. Someone came to change the filters and we asked him to for a hammer so we could take care of the nails and he told us he could not let us use it to call it in. Overall, I would not book this property again.

Reviewer Comments:
Upon arriving at the house, we found the house not clean. Floors were filthy and comforters on bed smelled awful. We could not use grill all week because it was full of cigarettes and garbage. We called 3 times and got told housekeeping would be over and no one ever showed up. Two out of four showers were clogged and it took two days to get fixed. Dryer was broken and never got fixed. Pool light was broken and there were no outside lights around pool so that meant kids could not swim after dark. The most annoying thing is the smoke detector goes off randomly during all hours of the night. Maintenance never fixed these issues. Also the plumber was called for the sewer smell in the kitchen area. He came and could not find where it was coming from so he just left it to smell.The house is a very short walk to ocean and very cute house but needs some serious maintenance work done.

Wonderful stay, description was accurate with regard to layout, amenities, location, etc. Everything was clean and well maintained, we had excellent customer service and the neighbors are great. We would definitely recommend to family or friends and would love to stay again. We had the unfortunate experience of being there through a hurricane and got lots of rain, but neighbors were very supportive and helpful and encouraged us to stay and we are very glad we did. We made the best of it!

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed in the Better Twin for 10 days beginning Labor Day weekend. We thought the location was great. The home had a lot of room and was very well stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen with the exception of cabinet space for food and snacks. As stated in other reviews the pantry smelled musty from the mop but we didnât use it so it was fine. It does have a lot of steps so if you are elderly or canât do steps the Better Twin would not be a good choice. We loved having a private pool however the tree on the other side of the fence kept it full of leaves. Also the upstairs was very hot when we arrived and we found it was due to a broken handle on the sliding patio door in the 2nd floor street side bedroom. It was left open a couple of inches and doesnât lock. The door also had a large gap between the stationary side and sliding side. Large enough we stuffed a towel in it. After that the room cooled down. Also the carpet in that particular room had a couple stains. Looked like something spilled or pet had accident. I realize it is the end of the season and accidents happen but I just donât know why the guest that had the spill or pet accident didnât clean it up. Some people just donât respect others property. Overall, the house was one of the best we have stayed in and would definitely rent again.

Convenient location with just a short walk to the beach and restaurants.Very roomy house and nice pool area. Linen and towel package was a very nice feature included with rental. Sliding glass door in front bedroom did not close the whole way so afternoon heat came was supposed to be fixed but was not during our stay. Same bedroom has a loose toilet seat. Both were minimal issues and didnât hamper our stay at all. We couldnât get into our place until 4:45 which is the only negative about our stay. Keypad entry is great!! Would rent again.
