We stopped by the Lazy Gator while driving through Murrells Inlet. We were amazed at the selection of unique gifts and touristy products. This is a big store. The staff was friendly in directing us to the restrooms, inviting us to remain parked in the lot when we went to the Marsh Walk and told us how best to get... More

First if all if I could rate this with nothing I would, but I had to at least pick a 1. It doesn't even deserve that. While at my visit at lazy gator, I noticed all around the store there was bugs. Spider webs, cockroaches, and even termites. The employees are extremely rude, especially the one girl who's shorter with... More

I often shop at the Lazy Gator for gift items for family and friends, especially when I want something reflective of the grand strand. I shop for myself as well and the Lazy Gator holds special shopping events throughout the year (trunk shows and tastings). The staff is friendly an helpful and they have a good selection of merchandise.

Very nice place to visit-offered assistance and water as we walked in and browsed. When we finished shopping and checked out-the bill was @$70 and we were happy to pay it. Later we found a $5 off coupon in one of the coupon books. Although it was only $5 we felt a little cheated and won't be back.

My wife and I are from Wilmington, NC and we have a special love for the carolinas coastal fishing communitites. We work in healthcare so we understand "having a bad day" or even feeling trapped in a small town. But when it comes to simple product sales and even faking a smile these 2 employees were terrible. We're given a... More

This shop carries a good deal of Vera Bradley items, as well as beautiful jewelry and other gift items. We enjoy coming to this store every summer when we visit Myrtle Beach. We can always find something nice to take back to our family and friends there.

It’s a tradition for us every year! I am inside shopping and Hubby enjoys sitting on the porch in the rocking chairs “people-watching” while he waits for me! There’s always some lovely treasure to discover each shopping trip and this year did not disappoint!

We love to stop by the Lazy Gator and just browse. After going through the store (usually buying something) it is fun to go on the porch and look for the alligator! If we can't find it, we play the ring toss game on the porch or just sit peacefully and rock in one of the many chairs! It is... More
