More than we expected!
It was fantastic. The little extra touches (a beach bag packed with towels and a sun hat; a pass for the State parks; coffee and snacks in the kitchen area; an oscillating fan that was used every night. Yes, we're fan people-summer or winter.) Plenty of towels...and a wonderfully cozy 4 poster bed. Our dog went with us and it was very comforting knowing he was safe with a fully fenced in area. The hosts were onsite and very nice and friendly. We will definitely be back. This was 10 out of 10.

this was a lovely place on the Marsh in Murrells Inlet. Easy to get to the bypass for restaurants, shopping and visiting friends. Shug provided a pass to the state parks which are nearby.

A cozy hidden gem
I highly recommend staying at Shug’s shack. Amazing location in Murrells Inlet, close to all the restaurants and marsh walk. Great place for our 2 dogs. Fenced in patio and yard. Tons of beautiful art in this cozy spot. The hosts were so friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

Great Getaway
We had a very nice day at Shug’s Shack in Murrell’s Inlet. Shut and Mac were great hosts and we had everything we needed. The property is located across the street from the marsh and literally 10 minutes away from one of the best beaches in South Carolina. Thanks for having us! Chris & Barb

Great Getaway
We drove 1100+ miles from Maine to beat the cold weather. My wife and I and our two dogs and one cat enjoyed 3 weeks on the NC coast. Pet friendly, scenic views, restaurants in easy walking distance. We would definately come again.

Great place
We had a great time, especially our pup. He loved being able to stay outside in the fenced in yard. We just wished we had felt better the beginning of our trip so we could have enjoyed this place a little more. Shug was a great host and this place is close to every thing. We will keep it in our list for next time for sure.

100% the best place to stay
Not only was this a great place for me and my boyfriend to stay, but a great place for the dogs too. We had rented this place not know it had a fence for the dogs and when the host told us we were thrilled that our fur babies could have a place to run around and play. The host was amazing with any questions we had and would always answer the phone if we called. I recommend this place to anyone who needs a cozy place for them and their pups!!

The Shug Shack is lovely
The place was beautiful, impeccably clean and so very comfy! All of the gorgeous decor was made by Shug or other local artists. Shug was just warm and welcoming and made us feel right at home. We were a little leery because the pics were dated 2013 but it was even better than pics. We were close enough to all the action yet had a nice quiet place to come back to and relax at the end of the day or even for a little nap. We will be back and look forward to staying at Shug shack again.

Fantastic spot
I came up for the Carolina country music festival from Charleston. shugs shack is the perfect spot away from downtown Myrtle busyness, but close enough to drive to the festivities. The actual location was very clean, cute and quiet. I absolutely loved the unique sea shell decor. We will 100% be visiting this VRBO again. Thank you Shug!!

No communication
My wife and I were really excited about our stay. There was some bad weather coming in (bad enough to shut down Myrtle Beach) so we made the choice to unfortunately not go. We reached out through VRBO to the owner and never heard a word back. Not even a "We stand firm with our cancelation policy and don't allow date changes". We rated the stay a 3 because we did not stay and it would not allow me to leave them blank. If it looks anything like the pictures then i have no doubt that it is a beautiful place to stay. Communication is very underrated and goes a long way. Try communicating back with the people who communicate with you.

Mid-week Retreat
Quiet, comfortable & well appointed accommodations conveniently located to all Murrell's Inlet has to offer. Hosts were friendly, hospitable and welcoming to our entire party (including our 9 month old puppy) but respected our privacy. A welcome & refreshing alternative to the hustle of Myrtle Beach that allows you to truly enjoy the 'Salt Life' at it's finest. Perfect fit for our vacation goals. Highly recommend.

Booked 4 nights to house hunt in area. Shug's was exactly what we needed. Great location, close to many restaurants and bars. Owners were super attentive to any questions or needs. Next time I come down to Murrell's, Shugs Shack will be top of my list.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Shug’s place. They provided everything we needed and more. The bed was very comfortable and the sofa in the living room area was also. Everything was very clean and neat and definitely decorated to my taste! There is lots to see and do in the area and lots of great restaurants nearby. Our trip was to explore and relax and we did just that… We would definitely stay here again!

Very Welcoming
We totally enjoyed our stay at Shug’s Vacation Getaway. It is comfortable & full of beach-inspired art pieces ( most created by Cindy …Shug …herself!) . There is an inviting side porch with grill open to your use plus outside refrigerator for extra food & drinks. A free pass to Huntington Beach State Park is provided & we thoroughly enjoyed our visits to this historic site along with its beautiful beach. There are countless fantastic restaurants within walking distance and yet the neighborhood feels very safe - Check out the Marsh Walk! Shug is an artist- her one of a kind jewelry is amazing - check it out in her nearby shop. She is an exuberant, welcoming host! Dogs are welcome - you no doubt will hear the upstairs pups romping around above you so yours can have fun too!

Cindy’s ground floor guest house was very comfortable. Bedroom and living room and outdoor area.
