The Vagabond is located in the private residential neighborhood of Long Bay Estates which is far from the busy hotel beaches but a fast drive to everything you need. Since there is no public parking or access to its beachfront and no through traffic, you'll find a peaceful uncrowded hideaway from Myrtle Beach's hubbub of activity.

The home has 2300 sq ft of upstairs roomy living areas for combined family visitors. Wood oak and pine floors throughout the home help those with allergies. A well-equipped kitchen with a cabinet of spices and a garden of herbs is trendy with the cooks. From the breakfast room and back porch, watch eagles catch fish and swans swimming on the lake or paddle it in our canoe and get up close with the turtles and ducks.

Appreciate the 60-foot long front porch with rockers, a picnic table, and a double swing. There are kiddie gates at the stairs on both porches. When the kids tire of the playground under the home they have only a 200-yard hop and skip to the beach. From there a ten-min. walk lands you at the Myrtle Beach State Park with its playgrounds, nature center, trails, fishing, and coffee and ice cream at the pier gift shop! Also, savor riding our bicycles around the neighborhood or along the paved paths of Market Common.

Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, consider shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Myrtle Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Myrtle Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to select the best vacation home in the Myrtle Beach area:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Private Neighborhood next to State Park with Secluded Beach ???? Booking 2025! has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before you book the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a particular Myrtle Beach destination you are enamored with, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to propel future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your review find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
