Mountain Gilead, located between U.S. 17 Business and the Atlantic Ocean, is a coastal and residential Garden City neighborhood with low-rise beach cottages and salt-air marsh views. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Surfside Drive and Atlantic Avenue corridor, where beachwear shops, seafood counters, and ice-cream windows set the pace. Architectural character leans toward raised cottages, compact condo buildings, and breezy porches oriented to ocean light. Days tend to revolve around shoreline walks and the steady rhythm of seasonal storefronts. Garden City Pier acts as a visual compass point and a social backdrop for fishing and sunrise watching. Murrells Inlet’s waterfront dining scene sits nearby, adding a polished, after-beach cadence to evenings.
It is the intent of this district to provide areas for single-family residential development, low to moderate density, to discourage the encroachment of commercial, industrial, or other uses capable of adversely affecting the residential character and to preserve the architectural character of established neighborhoods
