Enjoyed our stay. Hard to beat the access to the beach. The natural lighting in the house is wonderful. My one criticism is the bathrooms were a little lack luster and dated feeling, but they were functional. The property itself is very private with very good plants and trees to provide shade for the house.

We had a great experience at this house! The location is beautiful and a very short walk to the beach. Definitely recommend for families(we were 6). It was very clean and just like the pictures. The living room is where we spent most of our time and although the kitchen is a little outdated it provided everything we needed and more! The only thing is the shower with the tub always brought water out to the ground which was annoying but not the worst thing. The host had great communication and answered all our questions. Definitely recommend!

It was spacious, clean and a short walk to the beach. The neighborhood is very quiet and I felt very safe. The back porch is fully enclosed and was a great place to enjoy morning coffee.

This house was located on a beautiful street and section of Palmetto Dunes. It was such an easy walk to the beach. The house was fully stocked with everything you needed. Extremely cozy for family time and games in the evening. We loved every minute.

The She Shack is the BEST!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second year in a row that we've stayed at this property and we absolutely love how quiet and close to the beach the house is. The property has everything you could need. The only disappointing thing this stay is that the guest bedroom sheets were full of dog hair. We totally understand the property is dog friendly as we had our dogs with us as well, but it was disappointing to find dog hair all over the sheets. We ended up buying new ones since it was late at night. Besides that, it was a wonderful vacation! We'll be back again :)

Perfect end of fall getaway

The house set up was perfect for our family. Loved how close it was to beach path. We have stayed Mooring Buoy before and used the same beach path. I sent a pic to my brother to show him how close I was this time and he asked for a picture of the house. Turned out he stayed in it in May! I would definitely stay in it again.

“Two minutes to the sand”

Easy walk to an uncrowded beach. This house is located in a beautiful section of Palmetto Dunes The house was very comfortable with many areas for gathering together or for finding a cozy spot to read or just relax alone for a minute. Plenty of comfortable seating and beds. The house was well supplied by the host. It had everything that u might need during your stay. It was an easy place to enjoy yourself and have a relaxing time.

Couldn’t believe how clean the place was when we arrived. Porch need swept off but I like cleaning so I enjoyed doing it. Everything was in order and ready for our stay. Plenty of room for the wedding guests and preparing. We will return next year for my daughter’s anniversary stay at this place and enjoy the short walk to the beach daily. Oh and the short drive to markets and food establishments. I just love this place. The sign on the porch that says MiMis place. It’s what our grandkids call the wifey. So we knew this place was for us. Even the sign said so!!! We hope whoever stays enjoys as much as we did. Thank youThank you!!!!

Great Location and price.

We picked this property because we wanted to be close to the beach without breaking the budget. While modest from the outside, the interior was perfect for our family of 5. Not having a pool wasn’t an issue with the beach across the street. One of the only down sides was that we were there during a tropic storm and the driveway sat with 4” of water most of the remaining days. Also the back 3 season porch was unbearable in terms temperature, but it’s to be expected for Hilton head in August. Summer is not one of the three season.

Wonderful, cozy beachy getaway

The house was wonderful. Super spacious and laid out with two different sleeping "wings". One side had a HUGE primary bedroom and the other side had 2 bedrooms so the separation was perfect for 2 different families. The decor was so perfectly beachy. The living areas were open and spacious but also felt warm and cozy. The kitchen and bathrooms were outdated but were clean and spacious so it didn't matter at all to us. The proximity to the beach was great. I will say that the closest beach access point had a lot of stairs that made it super hard with our wagon and kids. BUT shortly down the road there was another beach access point without stairs so a little bit extra walk was worth it for the ease of pulling our wagon onto the beach. Not a problem at all but just wanted to make a note of it in case that helps another family dragging a wagon. All in all we had a great stay and would easily rent this home again!!

Great Location—Musty Smell

Location right across from Beach Access was great. House was as pictured, but the musty/moldy smell was terrible. We all became congested with itchy eyes/headaches. Property management tried to fix by using DampRid, but it didn’t help. They insisted there was no smell beyond a normal beach house—I disagree. House needs a good cleaning. Management company refunded cleaning fee. Wish I could have connected directly with owner instead of posting a negative review. Beachside Getaway was very quick with their responses, but no concession was offered. I kept being asked what it was I wanted. A good management company would offer a solution.
