About Lee's Inlet Apothecary

Welcome to Lee’s Inlet Apothecary, Good Deed Goods, and The Salty Goat Company—three locally owned businesses led by husband and wife team, Willie and Melissa Lee, in the heart of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.

Our journey began in 2002 when God placed a calling on Willie’s heart to leave behind the world of corporate pharmacy and return to a more personal, compassionate way of caring for people. From the very beginning, our mission has been clear: to provide Christ-centered, community-focused care, and to bring back the feeling of a neighborhood drugstore—the way it used to be.

While studying at the University of Georgia’s College of Pharmacy, Willie had the opportunity to intern with Melissa’s father, Wilson Cain, who owned and operated Southside Pharmacy in Myrtle Beach. That experience planted the seed for what would eventually become Lee’s Inlet Apothecary—a place where you could fill a prescription, pick out the perfect gift, and enjoy a soda fountain treat—all under one roof.

Over the last 23 years, we’ve grown from that original vision into a multi-faceted small business that still holds true to its roots. Our pharmacy, boutique, and soda fountain are all about personal attention, timeless service, and genuine care. At Good Deed Goods, our gift boutique, we offer a curated selection of meaningful items and local treasures. At the Salty Goat Company, we celebrate the coastal spirit of the Lowcountry with handcrafted goods and good humor.

We believe in The Apothecary Difference—where care is intentional, faith is foundational, and people always come first.

Thank you for being part of our story. We invite you to step in, step back, and experience the difference.
