About this property

Family-Friendly Beach Home

Sandy Flat, a beach home on Pawleys Island, South Carolina, is a great place to stay for a relaxing vacation.

Sandy Flat sleeps 8 people with one bedroom (queen bed) downstairs, 2 bedrooms upstairs (queen bed in one and double and twin in the other). Children love the upstairs loft with its twin and trundle beds. Baths with shower and tub on each floor. Outside enclosed shower has hot water. Deck has beautiful clear view of Pawleys Creek. The ocean can be seen and heard from the upstairs bedrooms. Wifi and 3 television sets are included.

Normally rentals on Pawleys Island have an additional fee for sheets and towels. Therefore many people prefer to bring their own sheets and towels. Talk with me about this I as can furnish them.

Parking is available for a maximum of three cars. (Please stay on the paved drive.)

THE PET FEE OF $100 IS FOR ONE DOG. EACH ADDITIONAL DOG IS $50. Since I can’t get the VRBO software to compute this (even with the help of their technicians), if you bring more than one dog, we will need to address the payment separately. I do not accept cats.

I prefer to speak with you before before you book! However, as a safety measure, vrbo blocks our email and telephone numbers until payment had been made. After we speak, if either of us decides that Sandy Flat is not a “good fit,” you will get a full refund.

Vacation at Sandy Flat, Pawleys Island
This little cabin is clean and has a good location, even though it’s not on the beach- it’s a short walk to the beach. The kitchen is very small, two people are crowded in it. The main sitting area has old uncomfortable furniture. Slide glass door needs to be replaced.

Relaxing!
We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Flats. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay sress free and relaxing. Communication with the owner was great. She made herself readily available if we had any questions or needs and was gracious in allowing us to bring more than one dog, so our pups got a vacation too. She goes out of her way to provide for your needs to make vacation as relaxing as possible! Thank you for making your home available!

Pros and cons
Pros: The area seems safe with the local police station nearby. It’s a short walk to the beach. Beautiful sunsets can be seen from the back porch. The beach is nice and not as busy as other SC beaches. The cost of this rental was less than most of the other available options nearby. Cons: The kitchen was maybe a 6 or 7 on cleanliness. It appears as though the house hasn’t been updated much in the past 50 years. It definitely fits the Pawleys Island “arrogantly shabby” vibe. The key to the lift wasn’t left for us, which would have been helpful for luggage. The beds weren’t very comfortable in our opinion. The linens weren’t provided. Overall, it was fine and we made it work. I would recommend this house if you consider the pros and cons.

Wonderful Week
My family, black lab and I had a great week at Sandy Flat. The house was everything we needed and was very comfortable. We came to the beach to truly relax and this house didn’t disappoint. Wonderful views from the deck overlooking the marsh and a nice screened in porch for those rainy afternoon showers. After sitting on the beach all day, it was also nice to come back and hammock in the breeze under the house. If you have an Eno, I suggest you bring it! The house was clean and had a kitchen with everything needed, which was nice as we mostly stay in for meals. Nancy was a pleasure to communicate with and we are already planning for a trip next year. Thank you for sharing Sandy Flat for others to enjoy.

Perfect location!
If you're looking for an affordable place to just enjoy the beach, this is it. The view of the marsh is beautiful and you are a 2 minute walk to the beach. The neighborhood is quiet and people are friendly. A 5 to 10 minute drive to the mainland gets you to shops, restaurants and grocery stores. Highly recommmended.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sandy Flat! Location is superb, with sunsets over the marsh on one side and a short 3 minute walk to the ocean on the other. Nancy was a delight to work with and we couldn't be happier with how everything went. We will be back!

Great Beach House
This house is the perfect beach bungalow. While it is not fancy, it had everything we needed with a nice homey feel. It was a very short and easy walk to the beach (close enough to hear the waves from the screened in back porch). We really enjoyed the marsh view from the front deck as well. The owner, Nancy, was great to work with too! We would totally stay there again.

Perfect place for our family!
Everyone had plenty of space and we thoroughly enjoyed reconnecting with our family in this wonderful house! Beach toys that were provided and a swing under the house kept my kids occupied and entertained. The beach was a minute or two walk and it was beautiful. Perfect weather! Pawleys Island was the perfect distance from Surfside and Myrtle Beach as well as Georgetown. Lots of geo-caches. And we all loved the LowCountry Zoo at Brookgreen Gardens! Anyone who stays here will leave happy just like we did!

Best location in Pawley’s Island
My husband, daughter, and in-laws, and Jack Russell, Auggie, had the best time staying at Sandy Flat! Nancy has a wonderful home and provided everything we needed. Could not ask for a better location; we loved walking to the beach without having to pack the car & drive there. Great week of shell hunting, sitting on the porch, shopping, & eating at local restaurants. We bought bird seed and enjoyed watching the birds as well. Nancy has beautiful art throughout the house, too, & is very talented. Cannot wait to stay again in 2024!
