The Vagabond is located in the private residential neighborhood of Long Bay Estates which is far from the busy hotel beaches but a fast drive to everything you need. Since there is no public parking or access to its beachfront and no through traffic, you'll find a calming uncrowded hideaway from Myrtle Beach's hubbub of activity.

The home has 2300 sq ft of upstairs cavernous living areas for combined family visitors. Wood oak and pine floors throughout the home help those with allergies. A well-equipped kitchen with a cabinet of spices and a garden of herbs is fashionable with the cooks. From the breakfast room and back porch, watch eagles catch fish and swans swimming on the lake or paddle it in our canoe and get up close with the turtles and ducks.

Appreciate the 60-foot long front porch with rockers, a picnic table, and a double swing. There are kiddie gates at the stairs on both porches. When the kids tire of the playground under the home they have only a 200-yard hop and skip to the beach. From there a ten-min. walk lands you at the Myrtle Beach State Park with its playgrounds, nature center, trails, fishing, and coffee and ice cream at the pier gift shop! Also, savor riding our bicycles around the neighborhood or along the paved paths of Market Common.

The living area is upstairs above the enormous garage and screened-in porch. No elevator. For your added health and safety in December of 2020, we added an electronic air purification air scrubber that uses hydrogen peroxide in our HVAC system.

Our top Rental property booking tips:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• To find the largest rental within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Narrow your Search:

• To start, have your family agree to the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Private Neighborhood next to State Park with Secluded Beach ???? Booking 2024! has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what is optimal for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. message the property manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to propel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
