We have stayed at this property off and on for 29 years. We knew the property and it's pluses and minuses from past experience. The lower bedrooms needed a better cleaning than the "weekly" cleaning it got before we arrived. The dual air conditioners were not working in unison to keep the bedrooms on both sides of the house at a consistent temperature. It seemed one side or the other was hot while the air conditioner on the cold side was running full blast.

We will definitely book with Garden City Realty again.

We had a wonderful stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We stayed at Waccamaw Exchange. The house was very clean and comfortable.

Our stay in unit 511 was very nice. We come to the surfside/Garden City area a couple of times a year. This is our first stay at the Surfmaster. We stayed the first week in October. This is a good beach area. A few things could be updated. The carpet seemed older and worn, but I know replacing it with tile, or even new carpeting, can be a costly undertaking. The sink and shower fixtures could use some updating also. All in all it is a really nice unit with plenty of room for your family. The large sofa was excellent. Would book this unit again.

We were very pleased with our stay. We especially loved the beach access right across the street and the proximity to all the area has to offer. There was really only one complaint we had from our stay. We bought a dozen doughnuts and put them on the counter only to find them covered in ants when we returned from one of our day trips. We called and reported the an issue to maintenance but no one ever returned the call. I then went to the front desk to report the problem and they said they would send someone out while we were out. When we returned no one had come and we had to call back again only to have a maintenance worker come by and hand us a can of wasp and hornet killer to use on our own. Ant problem got better but was still never completely resolved. Other than this one thing (besides someone nearby shooting fireworks until midnight every night) we had a great stay. We would definitely stay again. Just need a little work on maintenance issues.

My extended family and I had a great time here. We had ages ranging from 4-79, and everyone loved it, though the stairs were hard on some of them. All living areas are on the upper level, as is typical of the area. The older teens loved the ground level rooms with easy access to the outdoors.
We usually stay closer to the pier, but moved south in search of better fishing. We were not disappointed- plenty of crab, a flounder and a few others. We rented kayaks which we were able to use straight from the dock and the beach this far south is less crowded. Beach access is right across the street and very convenient. It was my in-laws' first time visiting, and she loved watching the inlet in the mornings. (Honestly, one of my favorite things, as well.) We had fantastic views of the inlet, and also an ok view of the ocean on the other side.
The kitchen was in great shape and well stocked, there were ceiling fans everywhere and room AC units in some areas, as well as overall AC. On a hot week, we were very comfortable.
The living room furniture was not super comfortable- low chairs and such. The beds were old and creaky, but we slept better than expected. The covered outdoor area (under the house) was fantastic, with plenty of tables in the shade.
I would absolutely stay here again. If you haven't been to Garden City before- I'd recommend a golf cart so you can have easy access to everything up by the pier (where all the excitement happens)and a life jacket for any little one who will be near the dock. It's deep and there is a current.
The only complaint I had was the lack of extra blankets. They provided plenty of towels and sheets. However, the futon came with sheets but no actual blanket. My dad in law needs to sleep in a recliner and we had trouble finding a blanket for him to use.
All in all, a great place with good fishing.

Had a wonderful experience while staying at Waddington. Needs some minor updates inside but it is a beach house not the Mirage. Worked great for our family was close to beach and pier which is why chose this home. House was clean and kitchen had almost everything you would need. Will continue to do beach rentals with GCR.

We took both sides A&B, the house was perfect for 5 families. Proximity to the pier, arcades, shopping, and of course the beach, was great for all the kids. We were in for a baseball tournament, and all of us would recommend this house to any baseball/softball parents!

This house worked out beautifully for our family vacation. We especially liked the setup with the pool and Mermaids bar area. There was also extra table/seating in the great room which worked out great when there were too many of us for sitting around the table for meals.
