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 Cafe, 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 rental site had noted 2 bars of soap for the stay. I brought extra, thank goodness, One small round bar for each bath for 7 days to include handwashing and bathing. Overall, EXCELENT STAY!I will be back!

I liked the location, the access to the stairs that go to the pool from the balcony. The screened in balcony was definitely a plus. There were, however, some very basic things that need to be addressed such as carpet stains as well as stains on the curtains. The bathroom fans were super dusty.We had a really hard time getting the doors to lock and unlock when using the key to the condo. There’s a mattress pad on the bed in the master and it kept sliding down and creating a huge gap at the head of the bed.

The location of Compass Rose is ideal for sunrise walks on the beach and evening views of the marsh... the best of both! The layout is spacious and comfortable. The furniture is worn and needs some updating. The kitchen is nice but needs new small appliances... toaster and blender need replacing.Mary Black at Garden City is awesome. She is friendly and makes your stay feel like you are family. I recommend renting from Garden City and Compass Rose.

Compass Rose 32 was a great experience. Check in was easy and ahead of the 4 pm timeline. The condo was very clean and well appointed looking just as presented in the pictures. The view from the balcony was incredible and a significant draw to this particular unit by it being on the third floor. The elevator made the unloading and loading activity much quicker and easier on the back! We would highly recommend this location to anyone wanting a comfortable and quiet week at the beach. Hope to enjoy this property in the future.

Everyone at Garden City Reality was extremely helpful, especially Mary Black. Mary took our calls, responded in a thoughtful manner and assisted us with our trip insurance contacts. Any time we have needed someone from Garden City Reality to help in any way, they are always there!

The condo was nice, spacious and clean! It was very comfortable and nicely decorated! Location was perfect!! The only complaint was the pots and pans were pretty gross.The grounds were nice except the pool. It looked pretty green and gross to swim in!! Not sure why it was not cleaned!We went doing the week of Hurricane Dorian so we enjoyed the condo for only 1 night because we got a mandatory evaluation. The rental company kept us up-to-date with what was going on very well. We received an email telling us they will be visiting the condos to ensure they were vacated. We did not have an option to stay, so leaving was not a choice made by us. We did not purchase vacation insurance, but ran into many families that were in the same boat without insurance but were offered full reimbursement for remaining days of their stay! Garden City Reality finally sent me an email on September 20 (almost 3 weeks after leaving), offering us to come back for 5 days by the end of the year or a $275 reimbursement (not even 50% of the remaining days). They gave me 72 hours to respond after I waited 3 weeks for a response!! Why not offer the days next year where our kids can actually play in the ocean! There isn’t much to do with kids this late in the season especially with one in school! The condo owner gave us the reimbursement but the rental company can also reimburse some of their $180 in “fees”. I expressed my dissatisfaction but I never heard back. They obviously don’t care about the safety of their guests during a time of crisis nor the satisfaction of a loyal customer. I wouldn’t rent from them again!

The screened in porch was a plus since we had a toddler and being on the third floor gives you a great view of the ocean. Pool was very nice with plenty of lounge chairs. Already booked for next year.
