Unexpected visitors

We love the location of the house, easy access to the beach. Enjoyed family time until we had unexpected visitors…. There were cockroaches there. My daughter left a day early with her baby. …. The beds were little to hard for my liking. And the last night we were there the power went out around 10 pm and didn’t come back on until after 2 am…. It was the whole east end….

Holden Beach is amazing!!

Shem Cottage is a true little gem while reading the blue sigh out book I read that she was built in 1950 after Hurricane Hazel! She is in need of some love and furniture is definitely out dated!! Did have some interesting encounters with several roaches both inside and out but maybe due to the age of the home cracks things like that and beaches are prone to them.

Cute, beachfront, basic

This cottage is ON (front row!) a fantastic stretch of beach with amazing views from the living room, and the deck (even though it's on the back of the house it has a great line of sight to the beach). There was plenty there by way of amenities to meet our needs for the week from the kitchen, to the outdoor gear, washer/dryer, etc. The exterior shower/cleaning stations weren't working but Vacasa was on it and had a solution sorted out within 24 hours. The town is close (groceries and restaurants within a 10 minute drive) and has enough to meet any daily need. Walmart and more restaurants are less than 20 minutes away. Two little things I would point out to avoid disappointment: 1 - the bathrooms are very tight spaces (no knee or elbow room if you know what I mean) and 2 - there is no covered exterior space (except right under the house) so when it rains or if your tired of the sun the only option is to head inside, but the views are great there so it's not so bad. For us 10 out of 10, would stay again.

Classic Beach House

Check in was a breeze, home was clean and we loved the views from the living room windows. The porch on the front of the home has rockers but no table. We loved the refrig style!! It adds to the classic beach vibe this house gives. We loved our stay and will plan on staying again!!!

We love Shem Cottage

We absolutely loved our stay this past week. The location cannot be beat. We found beautiful shells and sharks teeth, and food lion/shops were very convenient.

NEVER USE VACASA!!!

This was an awful experience, the house was filthy full of roaches and mold, multiple calls to the management company for assistance and no one showed until the day we were getting ready to leave, there were no linens no towels no paper towels no toilet paper nothing in this house and the rental company could have cared less. They brought us towels on Friday the day before we left!!!

Great place right in the beach

I enjoyed the week stay at this place. It only wasn’t rated better because the washing machine wasn’t working as advertised so it put my family in a bind without clothing for the full trip and we had to do a lot of hand washing and buying new clothing to get by. Also there were roaches. Otherwise the house seemed clean and had everything we needed. It was the house closest to the ocean, which was so neat being right on the water
