About this property

Charming cottage with sweeping views of the Inlet & Huntington Beach State Park

Former home of one of the founding families of this famed fishing village and pioneers in transforming this area into the seafood capital of South Carolina, this historic cottage is steeped in vintage charm. Here, from the expansive wrap-around lawn, you can gaze out at the untouched and pristine Huntington Beach State Park.

We are conveniently located directly on the Waccamaw Neck Bikeway, an 18-mile multi-purpose path that trails through Huntington Beach State Park on its way to Pawleys Island. The Murrells Inlet Marshwalk, lined with seafood restaurants, is just 2 miles north. There are also two restaurants in very short walking distance of the house, Graham's Landing Seafood and Southern Hops Brewery. Huntington Beach State Park and Brookgreen Gardens are 1.5 miles south and both accessible along the bike path. A pass for Huntington Beach State Park and 4 tickets to Brookgreen Gardens are included in your stay.

We are new to VRBO, but not new to the rental market. Here are some of our recent reviews:

April 7, 2025 - 5 star
"We had a wonderful time. There was great communication throughout our stay. The view was amazing and the sunrise breathtaking. The Huntington state park pass was a huge bonus and we love our salt and pepper souvenirs the host left for us. We will definitely be back."

April 1, 2024
"I stayed here with a small group of friends. We were very comfortable and very satisfied. The view of the marsh is outstanding."

November 2023
"We had a lovely, authentic Murrells Inlet experience. It was a real home with incredible views, minutes from Brookegreen Gardens, Huntington Beach, State Park, and all the restaurants in Murrells Inlet. The beds were very nice and felt fresh. Everything about our stay was very nice. We highly rate this home and would love to come back again someday."

More about the history of the home:
In the 1950s, Clarence Morse opened the first oyster roast restaurant in Murrells Inlet a short distance away in what is now known as Morse Park Landing. Morse’s home has been maintained and restored, keeping its original design and feel. We are proud to be able to provide our guests the ability to enjoy the seafood capital of South Carolina, while staying under the same roof as one its legendary founders.

At its heart, Murrells Inlet remains a laid back fishing village and this is uniquely personified by Huntington View Inn. As the years pass by, the area around us has grown and become a busy place, but here time seems to be frozen. The land remains the same, our sandy banks unchanged, and inlet views unwavering.

Other things to note:
This is a Duplex. You will have the entire upstairs house with a separate entrance, living spaces, AC controls, and designated parking.

Slice of Heaven - Came as Strangers - Left as Friends
This historical gem offered the most relaxing vacation you could ever imagine. From the moment we walked in, we felt right at home. The bedrooms are all large and spacious with crisp, fresh linens and comfortable bedding. The bathrooms are smaller but certainly adequate. The kitchen is loaded with anything you need to prepare and serve meals if you choose. History abounds with splashes of beach themed touches and charming decorations. We loved the screened sun porch and then the separate side porch with many places to sit and relax. Our favorite was the big comfortable cushioned chairs by the marsh. We spent mornings with our coffee and tea watching the plethora of birds singing and looking for breakfast. Fish jumping to tease them and fisherman nearby. In the evening, the lights strung throughout the trees added a magical touch with their reflection on the water. If you are looking for a hotel or condo experience this is not the place for you. But if you like the charm and history of an older and solid home with an eclectic mix of old and new, a place where you can immerse yourself in nature and truly relax, don’t pass up this magical experience for everyone of all ages. Ginger is lovely and we felt like we were kindred spirits. We loved the adorable gift and used the passes for Huntington Beach State Park - which is amazing and Brookgreen Gardens which was an incredible experience. We can’t wait to return to this very, very special slice of heaven on earth.

Hosted by Jordan watkins

Host profile image
Both natives of the area, my husband and I love everything about Murrells Inlet. We are proud to welcome guests to this historic family cottage and offer an opportunity to stay in the home of one of the founding families of this famed fishing villlage.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is nestled in a quiet, residential community, while also being within walking distance to two great restaurants and located directly on Waccamaw Neck Bike Path.

What makes this property unique

The panoramic views of the water are indescribable! Located on the southern end of Murrells Inlet, our home has views of unspoiled marshes, inlet and Huntington Beach State Park. Most inlet homes have views overlooking the homes on the Garden City peninsula, our home has a unique wraparound view with no obstruction.
