We love this rustic cottage. It's a cozy, convenient, and happy place to stay with your family. Already making plans to go back 2x next year! Also loved that we got some free umbrellas and chairs from Garden City Realty. Would highly suggest The Quay restaurant just minutes down the road from the house at the marina.- Anne D. from Matthews, Posted: 08/18/2024
It was clean and love the location. It is getting a little overpriced compared to others with more updates. Overall we had a good time and no issues. Would like to see give discounts to returning users.- Matthew F. from Proctorville, Posted: 07/30/2024
Everything went as planned... excellent location. We were married at this location 10 years ago.- Robert M. from Raleigh, Posted: 07/14/2024
We came with our Daughter, Son-in-law and grandchildren. We’ve stayed in this house three times. We stay here because it has a wheelchair ramp. The house is clean, close to the beach and a great place to stay. There are plenty of bed space. We always cook and I love the kitchen. We have so many great memories that have been made here.- Anonymous from Sandy Hook, Posted: 06/09/2024
We love this home!
It's so comfortable and family friendly. Love the porch, kitchen, all the amenities and the luxury beds. It is now our go to beach house. Close to anything you need. Of course the beach but also groceries, golf, restaurants, arcades and ice cream.- Anne D. from Matthews, Posted: 08/25/2023
We love the location. Carpet it pretty old and dirty, but other than that, a good place to stay. We have stayed several times before with no issues, but this year their are misquitos flying around the vents under house and we did see a roach in living room.- Anonymous from Gaffney, Posted: 06/19/2023
We've rented Abernethy several times now, and it's a nice, quaint cottage. The house is clean and the location is great. Unfortunately, it was well after 5pm on Saturday before we were allow to check in, and the cleaning inspector arrived a few hours later. Overall, it was nice.- Anonymous from Johnsonville, Posted: 07/27/2022
we love the house. Inspection was not done so house was not clean and we didn't get our welcome bag.- Anonymous from Gaffney, Posted: 06/30/2022
Loved the house and location was perfect ..already preparing to rent again next year- Casey R. from Chester, Posted: 07/26/2021
We enjoyed our stay. Overall good experience. Living room furniture is very old and worn out, does not sit well. Overhead Light in one bed room didn't work, chain had been pulled out so had to rely on lamps.- Anonymous from Gaffney, Posted: 07/12/2021
We had a fabulous time. Everything was well organize, stocked and clean! Will definitely stay here again! It is much bigger than the pictures give it credit for with beautiful views!- Emilee M. from Oak Hill, Posted: 07/05/2021
This home is exactly like the pictures show, it is a bit dated with wood paneling and carpets throughout - some minor issues - but all in all a great little cottage for the price - EXCELLENT location across from the Beach Access and about a block from the Pier.- Donna R. from Denver, Posted: 06/21/2021
We had a lovely time here the week before Labor Day. The location is great, right across the street from a Public Access. I walked down most days to watch the sunrise. The pier is quite close as well. The cottage is very nice and much bigger than I thought at first. The front deck was a great place to relax and watch the beach goers. It is second row, but we could still see the ocean. The cottage was clean and well maintained. We plan to go back sometime soon and bring our kids and grandkids.- April P. from Huntersville, Posted: 10/17/2020
We have twice rented Abernethy Cottage and for the most part enjoyed our stay. The location is great and the house is clean. The refrigerator/freezer, however, stopped working during our stay. Some of the furniture, appliances, and decor definitely need updating.- Anonymous from Johnsonville, Posted: 07/13/2020
We really enjoyed our stay at Abernethy Cottage. The bungalow was reminiscent of beach houses of the past. The home was extremely clean and well taken care of. The location was perfect. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the waves come in on the beach. The only suggestion I’d offer is to invest in some new living room furniture. The material on the couch and loveseat was dingy and appeared soiled. We really didn’t want to sit on them.
The staff at Garden City Reality was extremely helpful and great to deal with. We have rented a number of beach houses from them in the past and will continue to do so in the future.

old school beach house just across the street from the ocean. Huge living room/dining room opens to the kitchen to make one big room perfect for family time. Loved the location and so close to the ocean, pier and everything in Garden City. Highly recommend- Michael M. from Mint Hill, Posted: 09/03/2019
We had a wonderful time! The house was immaculately clean! We will definitely come back to this area,and hopefully stay in the same house.- Tammy S. from Seneca, Posted: 10/16/2018
Very well maintained beach house with great layout. Loved the deck and the view! The beach access is incredibly close. Walk to the pier, shops, and arcade. We would definitely stay here again.- Tracy B. from King George, Posted: 08/27/2018
We had a wonderful vacation and stay in this home. The only thing that was the problem was the air. It didn't get cool like it usually does and it kept going up. Other than that it was a great vacation. When a bad storm came threw the air didn't blow at all and we had to figure out how to make it blow cool air again.- Joni P. from Kings Mountain, Posted: 06/22/2018
The house was nice. Great beds! Great stocked kitchen for cooking. Great location! Our grandchildren wanted to stay.- Anonymous from Sandy Hook, Posted: 06/11/2018
The location and porch are fantastic. I was especially thrilled with the wheelchair ramp in back that made things so much easier for my 86 year old mother. We loved the new porch and the great view of the ocean through the row of houses. PERFECT Location.- Joy P. from Lake Charles, Posted: 08/28/2017
We had a wonderful time in Garden City. The location to the pier and ocean was perfect. There was plenty of seating inside, however, I would say that the furniture was outdated. A few of the kitchen appliances were also outdated.- Anonymous from Blairsville, Posted: 08/07/2017We are pleased to inform you that in Spring of 2018, the oven and the dishwasher were both upgraded. Thank you for your feedback. We hope to see you again soon!- Garden City Realty staff
We really enjoyed staying at the Abernathy Cottage. We love the location and the convenience to everything. We will be back next year.- William S. from Florence, Posted: 07/27/2017
I say "our" beach house because our 2 families have been staying at the Abernathy cottage for about the last 20 years. Our parents and grandparents used to bring my cousin and I when we were small and now that we have families of our own we try to get together once a year and return with our children. I am in SC and she is in IN. There is no other place we would rent. It's walking distance to the pier and you get to enjoy the beach view from the front porch. We arrived this year to see a new deck on the front and we loved it!!- DeAnn E. from Lancaster, Posted: 06/19/2017
Great place nice new porch it`s the best to just sit back and watch the world go by!!Great location right across from the beach!!Will for surly be back!!
- Rick F. from Laurel, Posted: 05/29/2017
The cottage was very well equipped.The mattresses were wonderful.The location is perfect for a second row house. The view from the front windows is good.The living room furniture needs to be replaced or covered and the railing on the porch needs to be secured (it is hazardous).I had trouble contacting GCR after hours when we had to leave early and had been told to call anytime, that someone would be manning the phone 24/7. I love the older houses that don't have so many steps!- Anonymous from Lynchburg, Posted: 04/23/2017
What a great place to stay!! the porch is worth the stay!!! Just sit and relax at the beach,and watch the world go by.Paradise found!!!
- Rick F. from Laurel, Posted: 05/25/2016
Our stay at Abernathy cottage was great we are planning on renting it again this year & next year. Very well stocked kitchen comfortable beds beautiful view close to pier and would recommend this house to anyone.- Pattie C. from Harrisville, Posted: 08/26/2015
This is a very good vacation rental. we have stayed here for the last 5 years. We really enjoyed our vacation here.- William S. from Florence, Posted: 07/20/2015
What s great company to deal with everything went smoothly. The place was just so nice as it looked.- Rick F. from Laurel, Posted: 06/04/2015
The house was very nice and felt like an old time beach house. Our only issues were the front door, which was very heavy and hard to keep open without propping something heavy against it. Also, the living room furniture needed to be cleaned and there were tiny burrs in the carpeting that would stick into socks or feet when walking through the house.- Charl P. from Darlington, Posted: 01/07/2015
We loved our stay. The carpet could be updated. A few to many nic nacs,had a great time.- Kerry C. from Monks Corner, Posted: 09/16/2014
we come here every year for vacation and we really love it. the abernathy cottage is very nice and clean and a pleasure to stay in. we plan to come back every year for our annual vacation.- William S. from Florence, Posted: 08/06/2014

Very quaint place with tons of beds! Plenty of space and right across the street with good enough view to give you the ocean front feel.- Patty G. from Plainfield, Posted: 09/06/2013
The house was very clean and the bedrooms were large. The beach access was right across the street. very satisfied with the whole experience- Suzanne D. from Columbia, Posted: 06/17/2013
My family has been staying at the Abernethy for years, it's where my parents took me and I am now taking my children. It is a great location close to the pier and has a great ocean view. It could use some updated living room furniture and the master bed could really use a new mattress.- DeAnn/John E. from Lancaster, Posted: 06/10/2013Thank you for your input regarding your stay at Abernethy Cottage. We want to inform you that king and queen mattresses have been updated and replaced with Beautyrest Ultra Plush mattresses. Everyone sleeps better at Abernethy Cottage now!- Garden City Realty staff

We was great and super cozy- Sara H. from Albemarle, Posted: 12/14/2012
The Abernathy is an old-fashioned beach cottage that evokes memories of long-ago family vacations. The kitchen is very well appointed and that is important because our family rarely dines out at the beach. The location is perfect - it's close enough to the pier to walk but far enough that you are not bothered by the noise, and it's only one house away from the ocean. Only two complaints - the king mattresses were really just two singles and uncomfortable, and there were few up-to-date technological amenities. However, for the price, you cannot beat a stay at the Abernathy Cottage.- Lisa L. from GASTONIAGastonia, Posted: 09/09/2012Thank you for your input regarding your stay at Abernethy Cottage. We want to inform you that king and queen mattresses have been updated and replaced with Beautyrest Ultra Plush mattresses. Everyone sleeps better at Abernethy Cottage now!- Garden City Realty staff
we have enjoyed our vacation stay at the abernathy cottage for the last 4 or 5 years. we think this is one of the best and most convenient locations ever. we plan to keep coming back to this cottage every year. thanks- William S. from Florence, Posted: 08/07/2012
PLEASE EMAIL ME ::: WHEN YOU CAN GIVE ME A PRICE BREAK ON THE COTTAGE. WE LOVED THE FRONT PORCH AND THE CLOSE WALK TO THE BEACH AND THE ABILITY TO SEE THE OCEAN FROM THE FRONT PORCH. WE NEED A GET AWAY IN LATE AUG/ EARLY SEPT.- Carol S. from Fort Mill, Posted: 06/11/2012
It was the perfect rental place and will definitely enjoy using Garden City Realty again!!- Jeanne T. from holyoke, Posted: 06/04/2012
We were very pleased with out stay at the Abernethy Cottage in Garden City. This is the third time we have stayed at this cottage and we really love it. the location is just perfect for access to other areas at the beach and it is very close to the Garden City Pier and Arcade for the kids. I would recommend this cottage to anyone, it is really a pleasure to stay here. Thanks for everything, Bill Smothers Jr.- William S. from Florence, Posted: 07/25/2011
