We have been staying at Horizon East for about 18 years. Like the location. We were pleased with the new improvements to the building, new doors, windows and the security. The unit we stayed in was decorated nice, but could use some major cleaning and updating in kitchen & bathroom. The utility closet is very dirty.

We enjoyed our one week stay in Surf Master 106. It was a cozy unit for the two of us. The full bathroom could use a bit of TLC. Great location!

Just spent a wonderful week in 1009. The property was clean and comfortable. The balcony was the ideal spot to watch the sunrise in the morning. The living area was comfortable and the beachy decor was beautiful. The kitchen was very convenient, but lacked a few items that I needed in order to prepare a meal. A larger glass baking dish or two is needed and the prep knife selection was very poor. I was happy to see a Kehrig type coffee maker as well as a regular coffee maker. The bedroom was very nice. The bed was soft and comfortable. I just wish it was king instead of queen. The bookcase/cubby storage unit in the closet made hanging clothes almost impossible. I wish the storage unit had been in the living area instead of the bedroom closet. There is generous drawer storage space in the bedroom furniture. The bedroom TV is tiny and sometimes we could not get it to work properly. I am sure that was operator error and not the tv's fault. The bathroom shower was great! The washer/dryer was nice and allows me to come home with clean clothes instead of dirty laundry. The location is close to restaurants, shopping and activities. I would definitely consider staying here again. Garden City Realty is great to work with too. I wish I was still there.

My first choice since 2005

I purchased my house in February 2005 and have been working with Garden City Realty since that time. After I hired GCR as my property manager, all worries and headaches about marketing the property, tenancy matters and repairs were history. GCRs management service has been excellent and they are always very responsive. I believe they are the premier property management company in the area; they were my first choice and continue to be my first choice. My suggestion: Don't buy an investment property in the Surfside Beach area unless you consider GCR as your local property manager.

We have stayed in this unit several times and we have always enjoyed staying here. Bed and couches are comfortable and the view is amazing from the 7th floor.

We really enjoyed our vacation stay at Driftwood. We were a large family group and spent the week of Thanksgiving in Garden City. The kitchen in Driftwood was very well stocked--we were able to prepare a huge traditional Thanksgiving meal. I don't think there was a utensil we needed that wasn't there. The extra refrigerator sure came in handy too. The house was beautifully decorated, very clean, lots of bathrooms for everyone, extra blankets for the chilly nights, and enough TVs to allow TV watching as well as video game playing. Everything was just as pictured. We fell in love with that huge hot tub, and had no problem keeping it warm. While the weather in November was cool, as you would expect, the heated pool even allowed us to swim a couple of bright sunny days. And those rockers!! Sunrise and mornings on that deck, in those rockers, and that view, just spectacular! Some of our group preferred the close proximity of all the options at Myrtle Beach and Broadway at the Beach while others enjoyed the quieter waterfront restaurants at Murrell's Inlet. We also visited Brookgreen Gardens which were absolutely beautiful. Overall, a really great beach vacation at a time we don't usually go to the beach. We definitely recommended Driftwood and Garden City Realty.

Very comfortable. I would definitely rent LazyO again. This house had everything we could have wanted or needed as we could not eat out because of the COVID. The private pool was a big plus and the beach provided more than adequate space for social distancing.

Loved our room! Very convenient for parking,pool,and ocean. The decor was homey and cozy. Only thing I would change is master bedroom mattress.

We have been staying in horizon east for over 20 years. We love the location—the easy access to the beach and the location of restaurants, and the garden city pier. We keep coming back and love the beach.

Our condo was actually ready ahead of the 4PM check-in time. It was clean, plenty of room for six people inside and a large deck outside. I would recommend this condo and would stay there again. Plenty of restaurants within several miles and a water park about a mile away. Only one issue was the lack of internet service even after calling their help line three times. Overall, very nice place to stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Madame Butterfly again this year. As with every year, it was apparent that the owners strive to make yearly improvements to the property. We were especially appreciative of the new sofas and refrigerator.
