Garden City lies along the sun-drenched South Carolina shoreline, making it an ideal setting for enjoying water activities and catching fish and crabs. The 668-foot-long (203.61-meter-long) pier is the community’s crown jewel, packed with a bar, café, and live entertainment on weekend nights. The dock is also an excellent fishing spot for local and tourist anglers during the day. Golf enthusiasts can also schedule a tee time with their friends at Tupelo Bay Golf Center. Ideal for families, you will find a 36-hole miniature golf course nearby with a tropical Jamaican theme and an ice cream parlor - Runaway Bay Miniature Golf.
Although the community is relatively small, it is big in activity and coastal charm. Enjoy the freedom of being near the sea from your home away from home. Check out these top vacation rentals in Garden City, USA, for options.
