Private Pool 2-min Walk to Beach
About this house rental
Nestled in Garden City, this lovely house for £751 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Just one block from both the beach and marsh, with easy beach access, a private pool, multiple outdoor spaces, a light and bright open layout, a chef’s kitchen with all the extras, Smart TVs throughout, and a private ensuite bathroom for every bedroom, this modern coastal masterpiece is designed for relaxation. Easily explore Garden City, then retreat to your private oasis for the best of indoor/outdoor living, from splashing in the pool and al fresco meals to marsh views and magical sunsets. While Memories on Magnolia promises a delightful beach escape, there are a few natural aspects and important property guidelines we like our guests to be aware of for a fully informed stay. Living with Nature: Given our proximity to both the marsh and the ocean, you might occasionally encounter insects. We proactively manage this by scheduling bi-weekly visits from our exterminator to ensure your comfort. Additionally, the beautiful oceanfront location means exposure to salt spray, but we diligently maintain the property to manage any effects from the saline environment. Weather and Environment Considerations: Our unique position a block from the marsh and ocean can lead to occasional flooding in extreme weather conditions. Rest assured, we have measures in place to handle such situations effectively. Pool Maintenance: The pool at Memories on Magnolia was replastered in 2022. Although it shows some staining from past hurricanes, we assure you this is purely cosmetic. The staining does not affect the pool's functionality or water chemistry, and it is not due to algae. Security and Privacy: The property has 8 exterior security cameras in the following locations: 2 cameras covering the backyard, 1 camera covering the side yard, 1 camera at the elevator entrance, 1 camera entering the stairwell, and 3 cameras covering the driveway. Video footage is recorded for liability reasons only, is not shared, and in no way infringes upon the guests’ expectations of privacy in these public areas of the property. The goal of using security cameras is not to monitor guests’ coming and going but to prevent break-ins, stop a potential party, and identify suspicious activity. Guest Responsibilities: To ensure a pleasant stay for everyone, we kindly request: No Pets: We love animals but for maintenance and allergen considerations, pets are not permitted. No Smoking or Vaping: To maintain a clean and fresh environment, smoking or vaping is not allowed on the premises. No Parties or Events: Please respect the peaceful nature of our community by refraining from hosting parties or events. Electronic Boarding Pass: All guests are required to use our electronic boarding pass which includes a verification process to enhance security and ensure compliance with our house rules. We strive to ensure these elements of nature and our guest policies impact your stay minimally, allowing you to enjoy the unmatched beauty and relaxation of your beachfront getaway. Our interaction with guests is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible, ensuring you enjoy your stay with utmost privacy and comfort. We are available for any questions or issues that may arise. All essential information, including your unique boarding pass, will be provided after your reservation is confirmed, making your experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. Guests are welcome to reach us via email or messaging app. We are always happy to help.

Our extended family of 16 stayed at Memories on Magnolia in August 2023. The immaculate home is conveniently located near the ocean, restaurants, and local shopping. The house was beautifully decorated with ample kitchenware, two refrigerators, and two sets of washers and dryers that masterfully accommodated our large party. The elevator made loading/unloading suitcases and groceries a breeze. It also came in useful for our elderly mother, who cannot easily go up and down stairs. In addition to the six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, there are multiple outdoor gathering spaces. It provided plenty of room for our family to hang out together or get some alone time.
The home is a 2-minute walk to the beach. The pool provided hours of recreation for those in our party who preferred less sand and salt. There are TVs with streaming apps in every room, for a total of eight TVs throughout the house. It seemed every convenience and preference was considered when providing amenities for guests.
Harry and Heather were excellent hosts. They communicated quickly and kept us updated with everything pertaining to the stay. Upon arrival, we had a beautiful box of goodies to make us feel welcome.
Thank you, Harry and Heather, for affording our family one of our best vacations.

Excellent location home was very nice. King tide was a bit annoying, as it flooded the pool and driveway and closed some access streets. Other than that we enjoyed our visit. Owners were quick to address any issues.

Very short walk to beach, shops and food! Ample parking was a definite plus, along with the convenience of the elevator to bring up luggage! Each bedroom, including bunk rooms, all having their own bathrooms attached was a major plus as well! We especially enjoyed the pool and the large deck. This house had more than enough room for all 14 family members. A truly amazing place!

Our family of 14 loved the stay! The location is perfect! Walking distance to beach, pier, shops. The house itself was so nice! We loved having the private pool and the deck area was also nice especially at night under the hanging lights. Check in process was easy and Heather was super communicative and checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Our family has been renting large vacation homes for over 20 years. Beginning with the booking, it was clear that these owners are exceptional at this. Impressively responsive throughout the process, including our stay. The house was very well decorated...just like the pictures. This property is highly recommended.

Memories at Magnolia made…
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed it so much the grandchildren want to go back next year. The location was perfect. The children could walk to the beach and the arcades. The home was big enough for all 12 of us. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the large deck… only wish we had a bigger table and a few more chairs! Also would like to mention that Harry was very responsive when we had a little mishap. Great communication. Would highly recommend.

Amazing experience!
We had such a wonderful experience with memories on magnolia. Harry and Heather were amazing at all times and we’re extremely communicative with us. We knew exactly what to expect and the home was simply beautiful and perfect. We had eight adults and five children and the home was perfect for all of us to have our own space so we did not feel like we were on top of each other. The location of the property was also wonderful. Just a quick one block walk to the beach, super easy! We absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend!

Great location - near to everything we needed
This was our 4th time in Myrtle Beach but the first time this far south. Convenient to shopping (a must with a large family) but not as congested as other areas.
Harry recommended lots of activities but we enjoyed the nearby beach (ocean water was 80 degrees) and of course the pool.
He was very responsive to some initial questions upon arrival and handled a maintenance issue promptly.
Be sure to try Angela's Market on Atlantic (on the left side heading back to Route 17) for fresh and cooked peel and eat local shrimp. Corn and tomatoes also bought there made an easy arrival night dinner.
We had wonderful weather and everyone went home relaxed and happy. Looking forward to our next vacation in Murrells Inlet.

Harry and Heather (homeowners) made us feel like we were extended family. They were very easy to communicate with when we had questions or needed assistance, even before arrival.
This home was amazing and had such charm, from the inside, to the porches and pool. It was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The kindness expressed from them and the treats left for us, upon our arrival, was kind and a tasty surprise. Thank you for everything and many Blessing to you and your family. Anyone who rents this home, will not be disappointed. The hospitality you will receive from Harry and Heather and kindness from the locals is well worth every dime spent to rent this home.

So the master bed was very very uncomfortable I'd change that for the next renters and the toilet in the master bedroom didn't like to flush either but we managed. Also there should be more towels and blankets because the ac was on "Alaska setting" lol but we loved the house

Memories on Magnolia is the Perfect Vacation Home
Wow. Memories on Magnolia is perfectly named. We left with a lifetime on memories. I have used VROB and other home rental agencies many times. Harry is the single best host I have ever worked with. If there is a super host it is Harry. The house is better than advertised. Plenty of room and space. We had 3 families 12-17 people as kids were flying in and back to college. Plenty of beds for all. The beds were extremely comfortable. With all the bathroom space the house has there is no issue with a large group getting ready. We still had plenty of space for fun and conversations. The front porch, pool area, back deck and sitting area under the house provided space for all to socialize. The kitchen with 2 refrigerators was ideal for cooking big meals for all. We had additional friends join us for Easter dinner without feeling crowded. The house was clean and stocked for move in use. It was perfectly located one block from the Pier and Magnolia beach access. It was difficult to leave the heated private pool to go to beach, but it was a few minute walk when we chose to. The location is perfect for golfers. We never drove further than 20 minutes to play a course. Woke up every morning to watch sun rise over the ocean and then in evening watched is go down!
We will definitely rent Magnolia if we come back to Merrill's Inlet. Our trip was to celebrate and honor a friend who has organized our SC trips for the past 15+ years. She was over the top happy with Memories on Magnolia. Thank You Harry.

This home was very maintained inside. The beds oh my slept so good. I reached out to the Host to find out what type mattresses were on the beds. Every couple raved about their good night sleep on the beds. Only complaint was the entrance stairs to get into the house was dirty, didnt do the inside justice and the AC will freeze you. Host had to adjust it from his location. Everytime I contacted the Host, he was very pleasant to talk to. Other than that I would definitely recommend this house to others. Including a return stay maybe next year.

Fabulous Vacation House
We were down for my son's wedding.
The house is very spacious inside, the main floor has a large open living/dining/kitchen area. There are 2 fridges and 2 sets of laundry machines. The layout of bedrooms on the 2nd floor was great. This place can definitely hold 2-3 families without feeling on top of each other.
Wonderful porches on the front and back of the house, and great space on the ground level and pool with two picnic tables and enough lounge seating. One block from the beach, pier, shop, restaurants.
Harry was very responsive leading up to our stay and answering any questions.
Nicely decorated. Minimalist!
Would most definitely rent again.
