ZJ's Retreat

We have stayed here several times, and it is a very comfortable place to return to each time. Close to beach and other things to do/places to see, convenient shopping, great food close by. Could use a little TLC, but overall a good place for the price.

Nice property, in need of a deep clean, much nicer then next door. some run down houses all around.

Had great time on vacation. Check-in was a breeze. With Covid19, the pool was fantastic and very useful with social distancing. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you need. We cooked all meals and had plenty of utensils and cookware. Very spacious for all 9 of us. The home was clean and the pool had plenty of chairs for all of us. We had a great time and would recommend this lodging to others. There are couple of things I will mention but these in no way affected our stay. The front landscaping could use some TLC and the lot beside appears to be abandoned and some items left there I think has caused a problem with mosquitoes.

nice directions on how to use TV's, nothing on refrig for what we have to do at checkout and when the trash comes. There was something gritty on all the floors(like sand). Could tell the place had not been rented for awhile.

We loved our stay at ZJs retreat. The house was decorated beautifully, and there was as more than enough room for our family. It was in close proximity to everything we needed. The beach was great. We lucked out and had gorgeous weather while we were there and it was a lovely week.

Great!!!

- Howard R. from Lugoff, Posted: 05/23/2018

We enjoyed our stay here, very nice and clean place. Very spacious room for everyone. Not that far of a walk or drive to the beach I would definitely stay here again

The place was a very nice place. We would definitely rent this place again it's just a little far from the beach but on golf carts it was not a big deal. The only issues we had were the rocking chairs were a little old and falling apart but that wouldn't stop me from renting again

My rental experience could not have been much better. We arrived early and were able to get right in the property. Loved the extras like family games. The only thing that could have made it better would be the location. First time staying so far from the beach but with golf cart rental we were able to make it work!The owner covered some of the golf cart rental fee which was nice. Garden City Realty employees were friendly and made the rental process easy. The house was clean with comfortable beds, nice furniture, and a variety of dishes. Pool was clean and outdoor shower enclosed. Poolside furniture not good for tanning. Overall I had a great experience. Highly recommend this property if you don't mind the distance from the beach.

Great location. Fairly new with comfortable beds and furniture. All the amenities you could need.

Everything was great....kids loved it

- Mike C. from Riverside, Posted: 04/24/2017

It was a great vacation. The house was perfect. Clean.

- Jeffery S. from Colorado Springs, Posted: 04/16/2017

This was a perfect place for a family. Clean, spacious, and the pool was great for the kids. Centrally located for our visit with other family members and attractions.would recommend it to others.

- Linda J. from Wading River, Posted: 10/20/2016

Nice House, clean and taken care of. rented a golf cart and got $100.00 back as it stated! If I have a choice I will go with a beach ouse from now on! no more hotels

- Rory M. from McKeesport, Posted: 10/06/2016

We had a great time in MB this summer, as always. The house was nice. I would suggest that the hammock in the back yard be removed or replaced, as it is broken. Could use some shade in the back yard also. Other than that very nice and would stay there again.

- Eva C. from Newburgh, Posted: 09/15/2016

The beach house was very nice, it was large with more than enough rooms/bathrooms for our group. Having a pool in the backyard was great but the beach was an easy trip on our golf carts.

- Elizabeth M. from Gibsonia, Posted: 08/29/2016

Loved the pool and plenty of room for the entire family to relax and enjoy the beach.

- Anonymous from Cherryville, Posted: 08/29/2016

Everything was clean nice place.we wasn't to happy that the neighbor made a fire every day and it smelled like smoke all day at the pool.the only thing it really needs is a good grill the one that is there works but it needs a top it won't hold heat for long.

- Brad S. from Travelers Rest, Posted: 08/22/2016

We were a family of nine for a week and enjoyed our stay. Any minor problems were taken care of immediately after a call. The golf cart made the trip to the beach easier.

- Carla M. from Delray Beach, Posted: 07/26/2016

The place is nice. The private pool is a real plus. Location? It is about .6 of a mile from the beach. We drove and was able to park at the beach. Found no need for a golf cart. Cleanliness? Some dirty dishes in the cabinet. General conditions? Handle in master bedroom upstairs would pull off when trying to exit the room. Other wise, about 4-star overall. Week we were there the price was $200 more than the week before and week after. I think they lowered their price after we made our reservation but didn't offer us a break.

- Allen H. from Tinley Park, Posted: 06/20/2016

Took the whole family , daughters and grandkids , to Garden City. Place was perfectly as describes. Yes it's 1/2 mile from beach right down the road. Kids were more than able to walk. However they only had to go down the steps to swim. We will be back.

- David J. from Bloomdale, Posted: 06/20/2016

Zjs was everything we expected for our family vacation. It was very clean, up to date and comfortable. We rented golf carts for the ride to the beach and were given 100.00 back on the price as promised. Pool was clean and perfect size. We would definetely stay here again. We had a great time!

- Anonymous from Hungtington, Posted: 06/13/2016

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The house was much larger than we anticipated. It was very clean with up to date furniture and within walking distance to the beach and stores and restaurants.

- Hardy B. from Rex, Posted: 04/24/2016

My family rented ZJ's Retreat for my daughter's graduation weekend from Coastal. We had a wonderful weekend. The house was perfect for having the family all in one spot to enjoy the weekend. It is perfectly located for anything you might want to do in the area. The off season price was awesome!

- Anonymous from Charlotte, Posted: 01/06/2016

The house looked exactly like the pictures! Great place and not far from the beach...with a golf cart. We loved that there is a pool at the house! Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends. The only thing that it needed was a table in the backyard!

- Gina R. from Parma, Posted: 07/13/2015

Nice house but small pool

- Anonymous from Travelers Rest, Posted: 06/23/2015

Perfect place for us to stay. Did not want to be to close to ocean ended being in quiet neighborhood just a few blocks from beach. we loved the house and the location. Price was great we normally stay in a motel but this place had a very affordable price for the week. Plus having all the extra room of four bedrooms versus one room at the motel. Also a pool in the back yard helps keep the kids entertained.

- Rhett S. from Manning, Posted: 06/02/2015

Great place to stay. Everything as described.I would stay again. The only drawback was the lack of enough pots and pans to actually cook for amount of people who are capable of staying at the condo. Otherwise an excellent rental.

- Paul G. from Rome, Posted: 05/17/2015

My family and I had a wonderful time. ZJ's retreat is a very nice place. Hate that you have to purchase sheets and towels; they usually come with the rental.

- Sandra Y. from Barney, Posted: 10/09/2014

From the first time we walked in to the morning we checked out. This house was everything I expected and more. This was the first time I have rented a home for vacation and I we were not dissapointed. It was clean, welcoming and we had the most relaxing vacation I can ever remember. Had a great time, the folks a Garden City were great, fall bike week was great and we'll rent this house again if it's available. Thanks for a Great Week!

- Howard B. from Lexington Park, Posted: 10/07/2014

House was spotless upon arrival, I did not see any dust at all. Most rentals we stay in there is dust somewhere; on baseboards, under couch/bed... Super clean. Personnel at rental agency were very polite and helpful. Bedrooms were large and comfortable. Plenty of hot water. Beach was conveniently located about 4 blocks away and parking was free. We did have to drive to the beach but, that was not a problem. There were 6 adults and three small children in our group and we did not feel crowded. It rained a few days of our stay but, we went to the bowling alley which was very modern and only about a mile away. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Wonderful relaxing family getaway

- Kevin B. from Garden City Beach, Posted: 08/07/2014

This house is about 7/10 of a mile from the beach, which was no problem at all with the golf car we rented. The neighborhood was very quiet despite being the height of peak season. The private pool was perfect for our family too. The house was clean, attractive, and very conducive to all the cooking we did. We also made good use of all the porches, since the weather was slightly cooler than the norm for South Carolina in late July. We would stay here again. :)

- Sara S. from Wheeling, Posted: 07/29/2014

The house was very nice and in a good area. We enjoyed our stay very much. I have recommended Garden City Realty to many of my friends. Everyone there was very nice and helpful. This was our first time staying in Garden City.

- Kevin B. from Garden City Beach, Posted: 07/14/2014

The owner of this home has done all the little extras. Thank you for coming we hope to see you again soon.

- Garden City Realty staff

The house was nice for our family trip. It was very clean and updated. The realty office went above and beyond to make the trip great. There was a mix up upon arrival with our keys but someone arrived promptly to take care of the matter and then brought a gift card later in the week to apologize again. The only bad thing about the house is that it is over half a mile to the beach. Our golf cart took care of this problem, but overall I would recommend the property.

- Anonymous from Batesburg, Posted: 06/23/2014

Very nice home. Was the perfect size and location for our group. Home is in like new condition and would definitely stay there again!

- DAVID R. from PALMYRA, Posted: 05/19/2014

My family and I stayed here for 4 days. The house was beautiful, clean and accommodated all 10 of us. wasn't too far from the beach and had a private pool I will definitely recommend this to any vacationers!
