Garden City Beach, SC
Local Guidance
Garden City Beach is a laid-back seaside community on the southern end of the Grand Strand, sitting between Surfside Beach and Murrells Inlet. Known for its raised beach houses along Waccamaw Drive, a mix of oceanfront, second-row, and inlet-front properties, it attracts full-time residents, second-home owners, and vacation-rental investors looking for a more relaxed, classic beach-town feel. Recent market data points to an active but more selective pace of sales, with strong demand for well-located, rental-friendly homes and condos near the beach and creeks.
- Expect strong interest in oceanfront, second-row, and inlet-front properties, especially from second-home and investor buyers
- Condo and raised-beach inventory is higher and days on market are longer than a few years ago — buyers have options, but standout views, pools, and locations still draw attention
- HOA/POA and resort rules (especially for rentals) vary widely by building and community — review early in the process
- Well-priced homes and condos in desirable locations still move, particularly those updated and rental-ready or truly turnkey for primary residents
