My words could never describe the beauty of this place. I wish I could post pictures of the sunsets, the beaches, the wildlife and the landscaping all around me. I am currently half way through my month long stay here. I have thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful surroundings at Wachesaw Plantation. My family is coming here to join me in just a few days and I cannot wait for them to settle in here. While walking my dog, I caught a picture of a gorgeous sunset on my camera and as an added treat snapped a photo of a huge owl in the trees near the water! You just never know what you will see while you are here. Huntington Beach Park is absolutely the best beach around. I decided to pay 75$ for a yearly pass instead of 5$ per person. This is good at any SC state park until the end of July 2013. I plan to use it everyday while I am here and return next year and use it then. It is a great deal. The 4th of July we went to the Marshwalk for a delicious dinner @ Daves Dockside then watched a spectacular fireworks display! When the rest of my family gets here I plan to enjoy the kiddy pool with my 2 yr old grandson... Thank you so much Mary and John for making my first long term vacation so enjoyable!! It has been a true blessing. <3

Lovely cottage and certainly lives up to its name, Serenity. Rooms are both cozy and spacious, plenty of thick soft towels, comfortable beds and sitting areas. The front and back porches offer views of towering twisted oaks draped with spanish moss, and resurrection fern. Squirrels, cardinals, thrushes, thrashers, chickadees and more provide a symphony of bird song and amusement for our golden-mix and ourselves. Just outside the back porch, we watched a turtle climb up from the pond area and lay its eggs in sand under a tree. The cottage itself is a destination and the grounds surpass the cottage, manicured in a Brookgreen Gardens way, the trees themselves are works of natures art. Lots of lovely paths to walk our golden mix, friendly grounds keepers and neighbors. We are not golfers, but the greens were beautiful to look at. This cottage is away from the maddening crowd but close enough to all attractions. Mary was very accessible and easy to work with.

I would have given the cottage four stars for some minor items. If you plan on cooking you will find that the teflon pans need replacing as well as some of the dishes. However, our experience at the cottage was so delightful that I gave it five stars anyway. I would highly recommend Serenity Cottage and plan on returning there next time we are in the area. Thanks Mary, it has been a wonderful experience!

What a RELAXING weekend. The area is one of the most inviting I had the pleasure of staying. I travel alot and have used HomeAway before and so far this one was the best. I am a huge golfer and all I can say is what a fun course to play. There is so much to do in the area and the restaurants were great. The inlet is a fun place to unwind after a long day on the course, which is less than 5 mins away. I have already recommended the place to my family and friends. Needless to say I will be returning ASAP.

I traveled to Murrells Inlet for the first time this past May and my fiance and I decided to stay a week in a cottage rental as opposed to our usual decision of a hotel. Lets just say this is what we will be doing from now on! The time we had in this cottage was AMAZING! The house is so cozy inside and out. It does not make you feel like you are in a rental property or a timeshare but rather as if you are house-sitting for a close friend. The master bedroom is very spacious and the master bath was huge! My fiance and I both instantly fell in love with the front and back porches. Being from the "North" we were excited about the traditional southern architecture and the relaxing vibes it released. The cottage was a beautiful place to stay but the beauty did not stop at the doors.

Wachesaw Plantation is a natural wonder of its self. Just driving to and from the cottage to the guard shack we were both in awe at what we saw daily. Beautiful plantation style homes were on each side of a tree-lined street. The large canopies stretched over the street toward one another almost as if to shake hands in the sky. The golf course flowed through the plantation which provided a few peeks at the fascinating holes. This was definitely one of the most intriguing and well-kept courses I have ever played.

Overall my experience here was like none other. My fiance enjoyed it so much she has already been planning our trip back next season. We thank John and Mary again for letting us share their amazing cottage. Their southern hospitality made an already great experience just that much better!

What a wonderful place. John and Mary were very easy to work with and returned e-mails quickly. We loved the quiet setting on the golf couse. Everyone was very nice. Wonderful area to walk. Eating establishments in the Murrells Inlet area are fab!!!!! Huntington Beach is a jewel. Was the best find of the stay in South Carolina. Golf in the area was also wonderful. We were going to stay in the Myrtle Beach area but found this cottage in the Murrells Inlet area and fell in love with it. I would recommend this property to anyone that is going to stay in the Murrells Inlet area.

My sister and I spent 2 months in this beautiful, quiet, secure gated community. The cottage was clean and comfortable and accepting of our little dog. Everyone was friendly. We are not golfers but the course was beautiful. Eating at Kimbels and the snack shop (both on the premises) was easy and delicious. We kept busy visiting antique shops, Brookgreen Gardens, Huntington Beach, Charleston, and Georgetown. Myrtle Beach was close but we were happy to be in a less congested area. This is an area rich in history and we were fortunate to learn about it by taking garden and plantation tours.Don't pass up an opportunity to stay on the Wachesaw Plantation in this lovely cottage.

My husband and I have been vacationing in the Pawleys Island area for 30 years. This cottage and its location is by far my favorite place we have ever stayed. Murrells Inlet is very convenient to the Myrtle Beach area and is minutes away from Huntington Beach State Park. Huntington Beach in my opinion is the best beach on the east coast. It is a treasured jewel with unbounding natural beauty and wonderful wildlife.
I too, like one other reviewer stated, am very particular about rentals. The cottage far exceeded my expectations. It is decorated beautifully, very clean, well maintained and all the appliances work well. The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms large. The plantation is secluded from the crowds yet very convenient to all the amenities of the area. The home is surrounded by wonderful southern oak trees with spanish moss. Our family dog appreciated the pet friendly rental. This is a rarity in the Myrtle Beach area. My husband and son also enjoyed the golf at the plantation. And we were able to take wonderful bike rides every morning.
We have already planned a return stay in the coming year. Larry and Jill Knecht
