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, appreciate riding our bicycles around the neighborhood or along the paved paths of Market Common.

The living area is upstairs above the sizable garage and screened-in porch. No elevator. For your added health and safety in December of 2020, we added an electronic air purification air scrubber that uses hydrogen peroxide in our HVAC system.

When to book & When to go:

• In the Myrtle Beach area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early.
