On Tuesday, August 18, 2026, the North Myrtle Beach Planning Commission reviewed the major final bonded plat for Phase 1A of Dockside Preserve and voted unanimously to approve it.
With this approval, Phase 1A of Dockside Preserve has received its major final bonded plat approval, clearing the way for final certification and recording of the subdivision plat, subject to completion of the required documentation.
Planned amenities at Dockside Preserve are anticipated to include a swimming pool, clubhouse, playground, pickleball courts, two community boat docks, and two mail kiosks with associated parking.
Preliminary plans for the entire Dockside Preserve community include 35 lots along the Intracoastal Waterway. These waterfront lots are relatively unique in that they are designed as “piano lots”—narrow, rectangular lots that resemble piano keys when viewed on the site plan. Waterfront property, particularly along the Intracoastal Waterway near Myrtle Beach, represents some of the most valuable real estate within a community. By creating narrower waterfront lots, Dockside Preserve can extend water frontage to more homes, increase the number of premium waterfront homes, and avoid concentrating the community’s entire water frontage into just a handful of oversized lots.
Phase 1A includes 14 of these waterfront piano lots. Each is approximately 0.25 acres, with waterfront frontage alternating between approximately 30 feet and 60 feet.
Land development is well underway at Dockside Preserve. Pulte Homes has not yet announced the home plans or pricing for the community.
