Toes In The Sand Drink In My Hand

Welcome to Pete's Retreat! A rustic cabin (made of cedar), with a touch of a mid-century modern vibe, that sits among the dunes and offers the best views in Surfside Beach. Inside the house, it feels like you are in a treehouse with the wall of windows that overlooks the dunes and beach. It is truly breathtaking to watch the sunrise over the water in the morning.

The master bedroom features the same gorgeous views as the living room and has one queen bed. The second bedroom is located off the dining room and has two twin beds. The loft area is over the second bedroom and has one Queen bed and two Twin beds. The one bathroom has a standup shower only, no tub.

The living room is where you will want to spend all your time soaking up the views. The dining room is right off the living room and also has a door leading out to the back deck. Just off the dining room is the quant kitchen tucked away in the corner along with the front loading washer and dryer.

When you are ready to hit the beach, just walk downstairs to the access road, and within a short walk, you will have your toes in the sand. You will love the quick and easy beach access you have at Pete's Retreat. Since you are on an access road, it is convenient to drive all your beach toys, fishing gear, coolers, beach chairs, and more, right to the sand. No long hauls on foot required.

Under the house is an outdoor shower and a lockable door to the stairwell. Some water can accumulate on under and around the home after heavy rain.

We now offer optional linen service to fit your needs and budget:

• Bring Your Own Linens (sheets, bath towels, kitchen towels) to save on costs. If you would like to bring your own linens ask us to remove the cost which is included in the cleaning fee.

Pet-Friendly Vacation Home - Your Furry Friends Are Welcome! We know that pets are part of the family, and we are happy to welcome them at this home!
