Love Shack 3-Day Weekend

Great location. Love Shack was small but did it’s Job, especially since we booked way last minute! But definitely will go for more space next time. Karen welcomed us at the property. A/c upstairs wasn’t the best- pretty hot at times; ventilation upstairs isn’t the greatest especially when cooking; lights were non existent in the bunk room upstairs but the outlets worked, weird! Karen did provide lightbulbs for a lamp, brought them by quickly on her bike, but they didn’t work for the lamp. There seemed to be a ceiling light and lights on the bed bunks but all weren’t working. Also, the alarm sound for the back doors downstairs was super obnoxious! Overall good stay and great location. We Enjoyed the pool. Could of gone without the “day laborers” comment that was expressed to my family as we were just getting there, about not hiring “them” b/c “they” don’t clean well. But yes we had a great time, access to beach was convenient, and the house definitely makes use of every space.

Love Carillon, love the location, management was terrible

This was our first time staying in Carillon and we LOVED it. It's safe, quiet, beautiful, and wonderful for families. The house location is amazing and we loved having a pool. However, the linens were not clean upon arrival (this was corrected the first day). The washer and dryer were broken and there was no internet for the full week of our stay, and the management team (and I say team because I had to talk to 3 different people, the housekeeper and a maintenance person while I was there) was terrible at communication and very difficult to work with. I spent a considerable amount of time dealing with the issues on my vacation and did finally receive a price adjustment but only after pressing hard for it. Had these issues not been there, we would have given this cozy place 5 stars, but this was not what I expected in a vacation. If you book this house, make sure you have in writing that the appliances and amenities work and have been checked by a staff member before your arrival!

Quaint, Clean and Adorable

The perfect size cottage for additional family and friends. Loved the new updates and decor. The built-ins provide additional space for clothes, etc. We love that it had two bunk areas for the kids. Having 2 1/2 baths comes in handy as well. You won't have to worry about little ones sneaking out to the pool due to the security on both bedroom doors leading to the pool deck area. We loved staying at The Love Shack and look forward to many more family trips staying here.

Adorable Getaway!

My family and I love Carillon Beach and we enjoyed our stay at the Love Shack. The owners are extremely kind and welcoming - they made renting easy! The space for this guest house is used very efficiently (It was a comfortable stay for our family of 5). My kids loved the private pool and I loved that we were right next to the beach walk over. The top porch also provided a nice view of the ocean. We give it a thumbs up!

Beautiful cottage with great amenities!

My family - husband, three girls - two teenagers and one tween along with a couple and infant shared the Love Shack for a beach vacation. It was everything we could ask for. The cottage was beautiflly updated and very comfortable for our crew. The pool outside was great for after the beach or evening swimming. We even enjoyed the hot tub at night. It was just steps over to the Carillon Beach overpass to two beach chairs waiting for use. Carillon Beach was wonderful and being used by other families renting at Carillon. This is a go back to place for a family vacation. The Love Shack owners, LeAnn and Greg were next door during our stay and were great! Helpful with ideas for dinner and activities and just plain fun to visit with! Thank you for opening up your homes for rental! Girls want to know when we can go back.

Awesome Week at an Awesome Home

My family if 5 had an awesome time at the Love Shack. The house fit my family perfect. We have 9 year old twins and a 7 year old and everyone had their own private place to sleep at night. You are literally across the street from the beach walkover and one block from one of the neighborhood pools. We only went to the neighborhood pool once because we loved the one at the house so much. It was our favorite lunch spot. We were blessed to be staying there while the owners were staying in Rock Lobster and got to know Greg and Leann. They are a wonderful, very hospitable couple. We can't wait to go back. Highly Recommend...unless you are coming when I want to go back ;)

Location, location, location!

Our family of four had a GREAT vacation at the "Love Shack"! The newly updated decor is so nice, and the location can't be beat. You're steps away from the ocean, and you have your own pool and hot tub in the backyard! We became friends with our neighbors in "Rock Lobster" and even spent one night grilling hamburgers and hotdogs with them, eating dinner by the poolside. We even got to meet the owners on our last day, and they were so kind and helpful! We highly recommend "Love Shack" for your next beach getaway!
