CHARMING, PRIVATE HOME/1 Block - Beach!/UPSCALE AREA/ Pets-! Oct-Dec Open - 3 Mo
The Beach Blue Sea Cottage — A Vintage Myrtle Beach Cottage Steps from the Ocean
Make memories here all year long!
Welcome to The Beach Blue Sea Cottage, a distinctive vintage beach home where history, privacy, and modern comforts come together just one block from the ocean. This is a private, entire single-family home—not a condo, apartment, upstairs/downstairs unit, or shared property—with its own peaceful outdoor spaces, parking, lush landscaping, bocce ball court, and mini putting green. No remote garage parking, no loud neighbors, no early-morning maids.
The charming cottage is tucked among magnolia and palm trees, just off N. Ocean Boulevard near the cabana section at the end of Myrtle Beach's Golden Mile, where the beachfront homes give way to the larger hotel area. The ocean is approximately a two-minute walk away, so there is no need to spend your vacation searching for paid parking or driving to the shore.
And this is a rare find: the cottage is one of only a small number of grandfathered single-family homes within the Myrtle Beach city limits that are permitted to operate as short-term rentals. You get the space and privacy of a real beach house while being wonderfully close to the ocean, golf, shopping, dining, and attractions.
A Little Piece of Myrtle Beach History
This lovingly renovated cottage was among Myrtle Beach's early beach rentals and has been restored for comfortable modern living while retaining its vintage personality. Over the years, guests even left handwritten recipes behind for future visitors. Feel free to add one of your own!
There is just enough quirkiness to make you smile—a little like the beach-house version of the summer camp cabin you always wished you had, but with the conveniences you expect today. Coastal quilts, artwork and décor give the cottage a relaxed character that feels more personal than a typical vacation rental. Think New England fishing village meets Key West, with a generous helping of captivating Southern charm.
Your Own Private Beach House
The approximately 1,500-square-foot cottage has three bedrooms plus a den with a fold-out futon, two full bathrooms, an open-concept living/dining/kitchen area, and outdoor gathering spaces.
The home has two levels connected by a very gradual incline and is surrounded by mature landscaping, including palms, magnolias, roses, and cacti. There are no shared walls and no extremely close neighbors, making this a particularly peaceful setting for relaxing, reconnecting, reading, working, playing games, or simply listening to the birds.
Enjoy your morning coffee at the front-deck bistro table, relax in the shady back patio area, or head down to the beach for a sunrise or sunset. The neighborhood is lovely for walking, jogging and bicycling, and small parks are within a block, including a beachside children's pirate ship playground, exercise areas, and places to walk the dog.
On the property, guests can enjoy bocce ball and a mini putting green. Beach equipment—including a beach umbrella, beach chairs, beach towels, body boards, and a utility wagon—is provided for your use.
Sleeping Arrangements
The adorable cottage is best suited for 2–6 adults, with a maximum of 8 guests including children, depending on sleeping arrangements.
Upstairs/main living level:
Bedroom 1 — queen bed Bedroom 2 — queen bed Full bathroom with shower Living room with double fold-out sofa Open-concept living, dining and kitchen area
Downstairs:
Bedroom 3 — two double beds Den/bonus sleeping room — single fold-out futon, best suited to a child or guest under approximately 5'7" Full bathroom with shower Laundry room with washer and dryer Two roll-away twin beds and two low twin trundle beds are available from the downstairs bedroom closet. These can provide additional sleeping options, although using all of them at once makes the room quite tight. Ceiling fans are provided in the bedrooms, along with air conditioning and heat throughout the home.
Everything You Need for a Comfortable Stay
The cottage includes:
Strong Wi-Fi Flat-screen TVs in the upstairs living room and downstairs den Cable and DVD player Fully equipped kitchen Stove/oven Refrigerator/freezer Dishwasher Microwave Drip coffeemaker and Keurig Teapot and blender Pots, pans, dishes, cups and silverware Starter paper products, including paper towels and napkins Bed linens, with beds made for your arrival Bath towels and beach towels Shampoo and body wash Hairdryers Iron Washer and dryer Ceiling fans Outdoor/beachside shower Simple gas grill & charcoal grill Beach umbrella, chairs, body boards and utility wagon—wow! Books, puzzles, board games and outdoor games Parking is available on-site for up to three regular-sized vehicles or medium-sized SUVs.
Beach, Golf, Shopping & Things to Do
The ocean is close enough to walk to—one block away! Golf, shopping, restaurants and Myrtle Beach attractions are an easy drive of about 10 minutes.
Nearby activities include golf courses and driving ranges, outlet shopping, Aquarium, SkyWheel, gardens, music dinner theaters, zip lines, parasailing, ropes courses, climbing walls and trampolines. The cottage is also around the corner from Pine Lakes International Country Club, Myrtle Beach's first golf course.
For a change of scenery, historic Charleston makes a wonderful day trip.
Of course, you may decide that your favorite activity is simply walking the beach, collecting sea shells, reading on the patio, playing bocce, putting on the mini green, grilling dinner, enjoying a movie, or watching the neighborhood go by.
Families, Fur-Babies & Longer Stays Welcome
The cottage is welcomes well-behaved families or friends and up to two calm dogs, with children and pets fully supervised. Dogs may not be left alone in the cottage unless comfortably crated. All residents, both two-legged and four-legged, must be included in the rental agreement.
The cottage is also a favorite type of getaway for couples, families, grandparents, golfers, shoppers, ladies' getaways, anniversary and birthday trips, telecommuters, writers, artists, musicians, graduates, retirees and snowbirds.
Short- and long-term stays are available, including month-long winter rentals. Spring and fall can be especially lovely at the beach.
A Few Important House Rules
The Beach Blue Sea Cottage is a vintage home to be enjoyed and treated with care. It is not suitable for parties, events or large groups.

Thoughtfully Prepared for Your Arrival
We intentionally leave one full day between guests rather than scheduling a same-day turnover. This allows the cottage to be thoroughly prepared between stays, less germs, and gives us time to make sure everything is ready for the next guests.
Keyless entry makes arrival simple—no reception desk, no long check-in line, and no remote hotel parking. Your private beach cottage is ready when you arrive.
Come Make Your Own Memories
The Beach Blue Sea Cottage is not a cookie-cutter vacation rental. It is a one-of-a-kind vintage beach home, surrounded by palms and magnolias and just a short stroll from the ocean.
It is peaceful without being isolated, charming without giving up modern conveniences, and close to everything while still feeling like your own little corner of the beach.
Come for five days, a week, a month—or return year after year!
We'd love to welcome you to the charming Beach Blue Sea Cottage—you’ll enjoy this gem, designed to create wonderful memories of your own—in a peaceful and private location near the sea....
