Does the Emmens Preserve HOA handle turf too, or just the grass lawn?
Just the natural lawn. Emmens Preserve's dues cover lawn and shrub care, irrigation and pool service, but the HOA doesn't maintain artificial turf, private patios or the community's own shared putting green. TIMELESS Turf Restoration handles that side: pet-turf zones, patio turf and the shared green, cleaned and restored the same way as any Market Common or Grand Strand yard, priced by square footage.
Key takeaways
- The Market Common is a 114-acre urban village on the old base.
- Emmens Preserve's dues cover the lawn — not turf or the green.
- Emmens Preserve also has a shared green, bocce court and dog park.
- Outside Emmens Preserve, most lots are small with one dog.
An urban village, not a subdivision
The Market Common opened in 2008 as a 114-acre mixed-use district on the old Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, homes set against the shops rather than a standard subdivision. Same cleaning process as anywhere in Myrtle Beach.
Emmens Preserve: the lawn's covered, the turf usually isn't
| HOA dues cover | Still needs a visit |
|---|---|
| Lawn, shrub care | Artificial turf, pet odor |
| Irrigation, pool | Shared green top-dress & roll |
29 acres of parks include a shared putting green, bocce court and dog park.
Brian prices it by square foot before any work starts, and every job ends blown clean.
Outside Emmens Preserve: small lots, one dog
Most other lots are small, with one dog using the same corner daily and no HOA lawn crew. City water is soft, so the smell is bacterial, not mineral — enzyme treatment handles it.
