About this property

Walk to Beach • Private Pool with Pergola Shade • Fire pit - Hot Tub • Sleeps 16

Backyard Oasis is a relaxed family beach home designed for time together. Start your morning with a short walk to the ocean, spend the afternoon in your private heated pool, and end the evening in the hot tub or around the fire pit.

Located in Surfside Beach, South Carolina, the home offers the comfort of a private residence with the outdoor space families actually use — swimming, grilling, relaxing, and gathering after a beach day.

Perfect for multi-generational families, 2–3 families vacationing together, and relaxed golf trips. This is a quiet residential area and not a party house.



Why Guests Love Backyard Oasis

• About a 2-minute walk to beach access
• Private pool with pergola shade structure
• Pool heating available on cooler days
• Year-round hot tub
• Fire pit gathering area
• Outdoor seating and lounge space
• Propane gas grill
• Beds made prior to arrival
• Bath towels and beach towels provided
• Smart TVs and high-speed Wi-Fi
• No linen or surprise add-on fees

You arrive and vacation starts immediately.



Outdoor Living — The Backyard Experience

The backyard is the heart of the property.

The pergola over the pool provides shade during the hottest part of the day so guests can comfortably swim and relax even in peak summer afternoons. Parents can sit nearby while kids swim, and evenings transition easily into grilling, hot tub time, and gathering around the fire pit.

The patio space allows everyone to be together without feeling crowded — some in the pool, some in the shade, and others relaxing after the beach.

Parking includes covered parking under the home plus driveway space for approximately 4–5 vehicles depending on size.



Pool & Hot Tub

Private Heated Pool: The pool can be warmed during cooler weather for comfortable swimming and is shaded by the pergola during warmer months.

Hot Tub: Available year-round and a guest favorite after sunset.



Inside the Home

Comfortable, clean, and stocked for large groups.

• Fully stocked kitchen for preparing family meals
• Large living area with Roku Smart TV
• Smart TVs in bedrooms
• Full-size washer & dryer
• Hairdryers in bathrooms
• Fast wireless internet

The home is set up to feel like a beach house, not a bare vacation rental.

Great time at Myrtle Beach

This pretty exceeded our expectations. Everything was great. Kay thought of everything and then more to make our stay exceptional. The pool and hot tub were both hits. The rooms were all perfect for our needs. The beach was soooo close. Being sheltered from the ocean wind was a bonus as well. The kitchen was more than adequately equipped. Loved our stay!

I stayed here with my adult children and their girlfriends and a few friends, nine total. Place was clean, tastefully decorated, had everything you could need and super close to the beach. The house was big enough that no one felt cramped or had to fight for a bathroom. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay in Surfside Beach. The house was close enough to the beach access that we didn’t use our golf cart to get there. It was nice having a wagon to load all the beach gear in. The backyard was amazing- perfect setup for entertaining. And it was so nice that the owners provided beach towels- made more room in our suitcases for other stuff! We also enjoyed having an extra fridge outside for drinks. It was too hot to use the firepit but it was a very nice setup. Only wish there was a half bath on the lower level! The house was clean and ready when stated. Overall

Wonderful house in a great location

A great house in a great location. The house was very clean and well furnished, the pool was heated and the backyard area is great. The shed had chairs, a beach wagon, and sand play items. There is a fire pit and a grill. The beach is just a block away with access at the end of the street, and there is a very nice playground a few blocks up the road the other way. The location is great, many restaurants and beach stores nearby and the food lion grocery store is right at the end of the street. The owner was very responsive and check in/out was easy. I’d highly recommend this property to anyone staying in Myrtle beach.

Golf Vacation

Beautiful home located within steps of the beach. Well appointed home with everything you’ll need for your vacation. We are four older gentleman who travel each year down to Myrtle Beach for a week of golf. This year we decided to try Surfside Beach and we're not disappointed. This home has 5 bedrooms and 41/2 baths, open concept living room and kitchen. Very nice heated swimming pool and a hot tub that we used each day. The host was extremely helpful and stayed in contact with us to make sure our vacation went well. Would highly recommend this home and using this Host. Will definitely be looking at this area again next year.

Enjoyable Week

Our family (including 3 children, spouses, and 4 grandchildren) had a great week. It was very comfortable for our group of 12 and had all of the amenities we needed. Kay was very responsive to all of our questions before and during our stay. Great location in quiet neighborhood and short walk to beach. Our only very minor issue and recommendation would be to have a bigger coffee maker for a large group of people. Thanks.

Clean, well stocked and excellent location. Close to the beach and gated children’s playground. The backyard is perfect fenced for privacy and safety. Pool was heated and warm 88’f. Hot tub clean and very relaxing. I would highly recommend this house to anyone for a Myrtle beach vacation.

My husband and I are both retired Air Force and we were drawn to the area by way of the Myrtle Beach Air Force base. We have a love for the salt life and look forward to retiring permanently to Surfside.

Why they chose this property

We love the properties Windswept and Backyard Oasis and have created our own brand that we named Windswept Beach Rentals. The homes are spacious and well designed. They are very close to the beach so we can still hear the ocean when relaxing in the backyard. The individual backyards are very large and private compared to the majority of the homes in the area. We looked at several homes that were single standing, but we found the yards to be small and the pools even smaller. We also noticed that even though it was a single home there were many more homes close together that peered over the backyard.

What makes this property unique

Large Private Backyard -- close to the beach and attractions.
