Ellington at Wachesaw Plantation East, Murrells Inlet

Been coming here for a long time and have watched the place go downhill. Early on we stayed in two bedroom accommodations, once children were grown we started staying in one bedroom. The two bedroom are very spacious, but not so much for the one bedroom. We gave two stars because of what we once knew the place to be and the cleanliness of the room when we arrived. We had two bath towels we returned to front desk for exchange because of what looked like blood stains. The tile floor in kitchen area and bathroom was very sticky and black when wiped with paper towel, like it was mopped with dirty water. (House keeping came and addressed, but was still a little sticky). Paper towels that were left in the room had what appeared to be food splatter on them. Shower faucet had dark looking mold inside the handle. Air vent over couch look like it’s about to fall out of ceiling. Mid week house keeping came by with fresh bath towels and placed two knives and one bowl in dishwasher then turned on. After we arrived back in the room we realized the dishwasher had been running for approximately two hours, after investigation, we discovered it was stuck and adjusted knob to help it proceed. We have been told that remodeling has started, but from talking to other guest, several buildings are still “VERY DATED”. On a better note, the access to the State Park is very nice. It has a very nice beach with clean restrooms, and lots of safe parking.

After driving several hours to get here, we finally got to our unit and neither key worked. Maintenance came and let us in! We got new keys today, hopefully, they work. Steps to get up to unit, which is beautiful with a screened in porch. The boys are enjoying the activities. All in all, satisfied so far.
