OCEAN VIEWS FROM THE DECK
One of the best things about The Crab Shack is the view.

You`re on vacation.

Then walk back down in the evening for a sunset stroll.
Being this close to the beach makes spontaneous trips to the sand easy — exactly the way a Myrtle Beach vacation should be.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 May 2026
Thank you for your kind words. We appreciate you and your family. We look forward to hosting you again.
This property was a true home away from home experience that had us not feeling home sick at all! The owners were awesome and provided us with their personal numbers in case we had any issues and were very responsive to answer any questions we had. This was the first place we have rented that we didn’t have to do a full top to bottom cleaning before we felt comfortable to bring our stuff in which was a huge relief. The place was immaculate, it was quiet and spacious, they had smart tvs so you can log in and be able to access your shows while on vacay, it also has its own washer & dryer which was a huge plus with a big family, we also loved that it had a full bathroom on both levels and both of the showers can be going at the same time and no water temperature nor pressure is affected, the water pressure is top notch here. It also has its own rinse off area underneath the house with amazing pressure as well as cold/hot water which was a bonus. We didn’t even use the golf cart to go to the beach, the walk is super easy and short to get there, it’s literally just as convenient as ocean front. It’s the total package really, and the owners also leave a bag with stuff in it for you in case you forgot to pack things like dishwasher tablets, coffee pods, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, etc. and it has their QR code on the bag that we kept so we can book straight through them next time. Definitely a 10 out of 10!
We had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and very nice. Plenty of room in the house and under the house. We would definitely stay there again. It is a very short walk to the beach. Michelle and her husband are very nice people and helpful.
