A beautiful hotel in a beautiful town. My mother and I came up here last year from Charleston to…read morespend a couple of nights and dine in the hotel restaurant, The Independent. We had such a wonderful time that we did it again this year. The hotel is lovely with amazing staff. Drue and Preston were wonderful, as were all the staff. Decorated for the holidays, and within walking distance of the town shops and the residential district, this place is comfy and clean. It has beautiful views of the river. Outside bar, The Eliza, has a fire pit with s'mores sets for sale and games to play. We shall return!

The GOOD The hotel is nice and the location is great. The…read morerooms are nice sized. The bathroom and amenities were wonderful. Close to restaurants, shopping and boardwalk. Parking was on the street, which wasn't an issue during the week, but may be an issue on the weekends. The BAD The beds were really soft. The pillows were uncomfortably over stuffed. Our view was of the air conditioners on the restaurant next door. And we had the noise from them all night. The happy hour drink specials weren't available at the outside or inside bar. Not sure why.

We took an Uber to Franks. Unfortunately they sat us by two large tables (of golfers). I believe…read morethey had been drinking all day. We settled in for cocktails. And we decided to share their fried oysters. They have the best fried oysters. Onto dinner. He ordered the lobster tail. I ordered the blue crab ravioli. He said his lobster tail was covered in spinach. I would have loved it. My ravioli was okay. Nothing to write home about. But it was good. No time for dessert and the golfers made it very loud.

Portions were a bit smaller than I expected (see pic), but the food was to die for. Probably one of…read moreour favorite meals in Pawleys. My husband had the crab ravioli, I had the mahi and rice, and my son had the crab cake. They were all delicious and I personally appreciated the gluten free options, as well as the option to do takeout.

But after spending four lovely and relaxing days there last month, we will never forget this very special place and our hosts who made us feel so welcomed and special. Thank you, Bruce and Corrine, for making our first visit so wonderful. We WILL be back. Friends, we will admit that a B & B built in the 1840's, and with only 8 comfortable but somewhat rustic rooms, may not be everyone's cup of tea. But if you're open to quiet time, new friends, wonderful food (!!), books, history, beautiful surroundings, and a great beach, do NOT miss this gem. Thank you again, Bruce and Corrinne. We will try to see y'all again next year. Jim and Beverly Giesler Madeira Beach FL

My stay was too short here and I would definitely like to go back. I was looking for a place to…read morespend the night after going to Night of a Thousand Candles at Brookgreen Gardens. Inlet sports lodge was a deal and close by so it worked out well. The best idea I had was to also make a reservation at Costa which is their onsite restaurant. You don't need to worry about drinking and the dinner was phenomenal (separate review for Costa coming soon). While I was only there a short time, I could really see that this one off hotel is a great stay. The lady who checked me in was super helpful and got us everything we needed. They sell snacks and alcoholic beverages at the front desk and you can even get 6 packs or bottles of wine. We only had about an hour after the lights to check in and get to dinner so we quickly went to the room and got settled. The first thing you notice is the big wooden doors to the room that look hand carved. The rooms are really spacious and have a full kitchen setup and living room area with a pull out couch too. We missed breakfast, but they do offer something downstairs. We did go up to check out the widows walk on the roof though which would be great to have drinks at the end of the day in the summer. You can see the pool from up there (which we also didn't use because it was december) and it was small but nice. Some of the upgrades seemed out of place, but not in a bad way. More like someone who had a lot of money created this place, but had never built a hotel before so they put money into it in some strange ways. Things like the wooden carved doors, extra shower sprayers, and vessel sinks in the bathroom don't exactly make sense for an affordable stay spot, but are a welcome additions anyway. I can't wait to come back for a longer stay and hopefully warmer weather.

This was a great find. I was looking for hotels in the Myrtle Beach area but wanted to be away from…read morethe touristy section, and this one showed up. The room was spacious, there were plenty of amenities, and it was conveniently located near Murell's Inlet Marsh Walk and other restaurants. The facility is well-kept, and the staff is pleasant.They do offer complimentary breakfast, which is pretty basic but still nice to have. Do check out the widow's walk on the 4th floor; it's a great place to watch the sunset.

This is a wonderful little gem of a place. Beautiful property with old coastal charm amidst old…read moretrees with spanish moss, palms & cactus. Just across the street from Murrells Inlet marsh area. Convinient to lots of things in the area, yet apart from the hustle, bustle and noise. I stayed there at the beginning of Bike Week and had no noise issues. It's not high end, but WELL maintained with upgrades that maintain it's historic charm. Very CLEAN rooms. Prices are competitive, but very reasonable. Saved me some serious cash at an expensive time of the year. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The only drawbacks for me were: 1) that pets are not allowed, but that is great in other ways. 2) for Breakfast you'll need to get in the car or bring in something microwaveable - not really a problem, but something to be aware of. I stayed in one of the motor court rooms that had a little breakfast nook in back with the refrigerator, microwave and table & chair. Don't listen to the 1 star reviews that state it's not safe or put down the furnishings. The furniture is not old and rickety, but in excellent condition and in keeping with the era of the place. I felt VERY safe here as a woman travelling alone and who has put up with some sketchy places before. This isn't one of those at all. I will certainly be staying here when I return to the area.

Fun…read moreentertainment for kids with Pirate Pootie who kept the kids busy and entertained with all the antics a pirate could get into and fun jokes only the parents "got". There is face painting and options to purchase swords, spy glasses, hats, head scarfs and eye patches before leaving the dock. (Parents are informed they can grab a cold beverage from Dead Dog Salon bar to bring onboard.) There is no food or restrooms offered onboard so take care of that before you go. Once the little pirates are onboard and the cruise down the creek begins the kids are given instructions on talking like a pirate and their jobs onboard. There are water canons for blasting when Pirate Pete tries to steal the treasure, flags to hoist, and grobe for toasting. The boat never leaves site of land and mostly just floats around a small area of the creeks behind The Marsh Walk. No worries about being seasick or going into the ocean. A very fun and calm ride. We intended to do the sunset cruise but there wasn't enough tickets sold for that trip so we were changed the day before to a 2:30 trip. Every pirate leaves the ship with a handful of treasure to take home. As soon as we got back to the dock our grandson (7 yrs old) excitedly asked when we could go again! A fun family activity I recommended for all ages.
