Location is A+ Home is a D

Location is perfect - walkability score is 10/10. Quite neighborhood with friendly people. Home desperately needs deep cleaning and is in disrepair. It's neither attactive or comfortable. Couch is dirty & stained. Bathroom rugs were filthy. Walls, cabinets & doors are a mess. Bathroom fixtures are coming out of the wall. Water roaches were really bad. Just very disappointed and cannot recommend.

We would love to stay here again

Jane was great with communicating with me before our stay, during and after. Thank you Jane! I was able to text her my suggestions on improving the property. She was available and quick to respond. We stayed here during the recent Tropical Storm Ophelia (?), 9/21/23, and while we were indoors for a couple of days, the place was insulated well, and it was pretty neat to listen to how the weather played out. Keep in mind to those expecting a ‘castle’, that this property has more of the beach cottage vibe. It was what we wanted. There were three adults and our mini dog, a service dog, and it helped having a washer n dryer on-site. The coffee and mini store behind this property, made me a couple great omelettes! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

This property could not be more convenient to everything we needed. It is in a great location. We are a family of 4 plus our dog. Kids are 5 and 7. Beach access was so easy and the main drag/boardwalk are minutes away. The property provided everything we needed.

Disappointed!

The location was amazing. Great views, short beach walk. CONS- The floors were swept but not mopped (kids feet were black after walking around) The couch was covered in white dog hair. Luckily I had enough sheets to cover it. All of the couch pillows were stained. I put all of them in the closet while we were there. I’m surprised more complaints weren’t made about the cleanliness. Fridge had smudges all over it, the bathroom smelt of urine and mildew. The shower curtain should be washed, and liner should be changed after a few stays to avoid the smell (you can see mold on the bottom of it) Also the washer does not fill up with enough water to wash a load. The umbrella was broken. I asked the owner to please drop one off the next day. She asked if I could go buy one and she’d reimburse me. I ended up renting each day because it was easier. Also, it isn’t my job to run and get one for her to have for future guest. Unprofessional! I chose this house so I wouldn’t have to bring beach toys or run out and “grab things” I have 2 small kids.. There were only 3 chairs provided for the beach. Only one was a “beach chair” the other 2 were wooden folding chairs. I could go on but you get the point. The house is probably cleaner now than it was before I got there. Been home for 2 days. My youngest daughter and I are both sick with the stomach bug. I assume it’s from the poor cleaning jobs that are done. Zero disinfecting or bleach used here. LAZY cleaner. Don’t recommend.

Amazing location

You cannot get a better location for the price. You can see the beach from the balcony and a corner store half a block away. Very quiet and safe neighborhood. Great house for small kids or babies.

Good trip. Beautiful place.

The house is in an amazing spot. It is a very nice location and the layout is nice as well. The wrap around porch is amazing. The packet that the owners send is slightly confusing. There is also a lot of what appears to be the owners items at the house which when having kids can make you nervous. For sure would stay at the location again though.

Great location

Easy transaction. Simple directions and wealth of information about the locale area. only complaint is that the decking had several nails coming loose ( with toddlers hard on barefeet): restaurants in local area do not do take-out and we had a hard time finding food to go. owner indicated to bring own linens/ towels but there was plentiful at the residence. Great Great location. Very quiet ( soundproofed, didn't really hear the busy street).

Great location

The property was great! The best view for the morning sunrise and afternoon sunset across the sound. The porch was great eating breakfast and enjoying the views. Loved having a small local store in the backyard with anything you may need or forgot. Small walk to the beach and loved that it was with a lifeguard on duty each day.

Perfect Carolina Beach Retreat

Just returned from a great 3 night stay and it was perfect. I grew up going to the Carolina beaches and this place provided a classic beach house vibe! The porch was perfect for watching boats go by and feeling the afternoon breeze! Loved the huge couches. All the necessities were provided for a great day at the beach! Would 10/10 rent again!

Beach getaway

The process of renting was very smooth and easy. Communication great. The property itself needs some upgrade. The front door was all rusted in and out, with big gap between the frames. It wasn't a good introduction to the property. The bolt hard to open or close. Inside, by garbage can the cabinet all dirty. The floors swept but dirty. The bedrooms clean, but a lot of dust under the beds. The part of guthers right by the deck hanging and missing. There should be beach chairs in the shed, but just one and ready to give up. We had to rent the chairs and umbrella for the beach. What the price we paid, it should be the beach view and better standard. Overall the information of the property was misleading. The pro for this rental was close to the beach.

Awesome location, ready to book my trip for next year

The location is great, lots of good places to eat and things to do within a very short drive. Super easy to walk right to the beach and the beach is beautiful and clean. The house is a great size we enjoyed our views from the porches. Couldn’t get the tv to work so we just went and bought a roku and signed in to our Netflix while we were there so we had background noise for our dog while we went down to the beach. Bonus that it’s pet friendly our boy loved his first beach trip! Thank you for letting us stay!

Loved the beach access of this home and that she supplied all the basics. Even had stuff you could use for the beach (tent, beach cart). It was definitely a home away from home . Only thing we had trouble with was non of the TVs in the house would connect to the cable . So we had no tv while there but oh well !
