Top Notch

Great house for a group getaway: comfy bedrooms with plenty of clean bathrooms; a spacious living/dining/kitchen space; lots of parking; pool with fire pit; and best of all, it's across the street from a lovely, wide, flat ocean beach. We would rent again. Communication with host was easy.

Great place to celebrate our friend getting married.

I would highly recommend this property if you are looking for a great time in Murrells Inlet. The house is extremely spacious with tons of room for a large amount of guests. Couldn’t have asked for a better owner, he was in constant contact about whatever we needed and both check in and check out were seamless. When we weren’t at the golf course we took advantage of the beautiful pool and backyard. The beach is a very close walk. Definitely will be staying here again the next time we visit South Carolina.

Great family house

We were there for the storm and the house was very equipped for an indoor stay. There were games, books, puzzles and coloring books for the children and the kitchen had every pot, pan, baking dish and utensil you could possibly want. When the sun finally came out it was a very close walk to the beach and there were plenty of chairs, toys and towels for all.

Great House

We loved the easy access to the beach and nice pool area. The decks also had nice views of the beach sunrise and inlet sunset. The garage had lots of beach chairs, toys, umbrellas, and beach carts. There was plenty of room for our group of 8 women and 6 kids to gather and to sleep. The beds and bedding were comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. And most of all our host was very responsive in answering our questions and sending us help in operating the elevator. Having the elevator was also a plus for transporting luggage and groceries.

...and a GREAT TIME was had by all....

The house was open and friendly! Each room had bath towels enough for the guests in that room (YAY)! There were plenty of beach towels and beach toys and chairs. The pool area was clean and very pleasant and accommodated our group of 11 easily. Our whole group enjoyed everything about our stay in the Sandcastle! The best part was that, when we had an issue, the owner and his property manager resolved it QUICKLY! What a nice change from most rental properties!
