Incredible home with an even more incredible sunrise over the marsh!

What a great home which appears to be completely secluded but is in an excellent location close to shopping restaurants and everything else. It is such an unusual home; felt like we were in a tree house. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Great Gallentines Getaway

The house was very clean. Mary and her family were great host, making sure we knew were everything was and that we had everything we needed. The only thing that could have been better was the weather! But that was ok, we were totally content catching up and laughing with each other, we never left the house!

This was a wonderful place to create memories.

We totally enjoyed this clean, modern, interesting seaside cabin. It is very unique and had all the amenities of home. The sunrise and sunsets were spectacular sitting in the gazebo in the middle of the marsh or relaxing in the cozy chair by the window. Great price and everything is new inside. It is close to restaurants and the ocean but tucked away off highway 17. A real gem.

April Visit to Pawleys Island Community

This is a very unique home as depicted in the photos. Solid hardwood everywhere! Views of the marsh area are excellent. The home was very clean. The owners live minutes away and were very responsive to a couple of requests. The kitchen area is small and there isn’t a dishwasher so plan accordingly. The deck and picnic table are just out the back door and great for outdoor dining. One note is there is not any cover over the back deck to shield you from rain or full sun. We made due with a couple of umbrellas. The gazebo on the marsh is roofed and puts you in the middle of all the action. Great bird watching with morning coffee and evening cocktails. Unfortunately two new homes were being built across the street from the house. We just had some bad timing related to daytime construction noise outside as the homes were being put up and framed. Probably done now. The house is rock solid and nearly sound proof so no issue inside. The location is very convenient to many great restaurants, local shopping and numerous golf courses. All just a short drive away. It’s a quiet little neighborhood tucked behind businesses on 17.

Perfectly Pawley’s

I have been both a visitor and resident of Pawleys Island. I brought my siblings into town for a little vacation. We enjoyed our stay very much and would not hesitate to go again. Mary was very helpful and we think that it was a great experience!

Wedding Weekend in Pawleys Island

The house is like a "tree house" literally there is a tree in the middle of it - not alive anymore - but, still a tree. The view is awesome and the dock is the longest in the area that we could see. The layout of the house gives views of the marsh in almost every room. Great for large gatherings in the common area. Only downside is the kitchen is very small and no dishwasher. Take paper products and you are good to go.

Off season getaway

This is a lovely family home in a quiet neighborhood. It is better for an off-season fishing trip rather than a beach trip, as it is not within walking distance to the beach(if you have young children and lots of gear in tow). The host is great and and the house is unique and clean!

Marsh paradise

What a beautiful place to be "at the beach". Morning coffee under the gazebo on the dock, sun-filled beach days and evening cocktails back at the dock while fishing and crabbing. Having three adult sons, this is absolute paradise. Mary was an absolutely amazing host with quick replies. Highly recommend.

Quiet, clean, and beautiful

The house is in an area that is remote and quiet but still very close to everything. We met Mary, one of the owners, she was very polite and accommodating. The house was one of the cleanest places we have stayed in. There was not a spec of dust or a streak in a mirror. Even outside was cleaned up, and we stayed right after a hurricane. 2 master bedrooms was perfect for 2 couples. There is also another room with sets of bunk beds. The pier and gazebo were great for fishing and relaxing. We will Definitely stay here again.

Nature of the coast

The superb location of this house and the friendliness and accomodation of the owners made our week-long stay here with two families completely worth it. The house itself was comfortable and quirky. It has a sort of polished log-cabin look that prompted my nephew to murmur “beautiful “ as soon as he walked in. But the views and the creek behind the house surpass any human construcion in beauty. We spent hours just watching clouds and crabs from the dock. The one difficulty with this house was the smallness and lack of workspace in the kitchen and pantry. But that wouldn’t keep me from returning if we had the chance.
