Family tradition beach vacation

The house was clean and plenty of room for our family of 10 and dogs. It’s just across the street from the ocean, which was perfect. Beds were comfy and the house had cute decor. Everything you need to cook with was in the kitchen. The only thing we needed to buy was a small Keurig coffee maker. The commercial ice maker was a plus. We had a great time.

We enjoyed our stay. However, it would be a little more pleasant if the furniture was updated or at least cleaned. Sofas & chairs are very dirty. Other than that we like the house very much.

Great Family Summer Rental

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at this house for our annual family beach week. We had a house full of kids and adults so we needed a situation that could accommodate all needs. This house was perfect and would recommend for anyone seeking easy beach access and a pool. The proximity to the busy road was the only real concern however was mitigated by blocking off the stair access for the smaller kids.

Great house with a great view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 13 family members stay the week here (two children under 14) and our dog. Everyone had a great time, there was plenty of room to sleep, eat and relax. We love how close it was to the beach and we love the pool. I suggest taking advantage of the parking in the lot 1/2 a block behind the house so everyone is not moving cars around, as there is only room for 4 cars under the house and they all have to be in a straight line, one behind the other. Once we parked a couple in the lot behind us it was much less stressful to move cars around.

Fantastic Property

We enjoyed our stay at this property, June 3-June 10. On our first night one of the doors to a bedroom got locked and maintenance sent a representative within 1 hour to open door. While he was there, he addressed a couple of other small concerns in a friendly professional way. Washer was replaced while we were there which took care of the off-balance issue when items were washed. I made calls to property management a few other items and they were always able to answer my questions. Having a bathroom for each bedroom was priceless for my family of 16. Because weather was so good and beach so close the 6 grandsons did not spend much time in the pool but when they did they enjoyed it. I would recommend this property to other families looking for a good place to stay.

Bike Week

The house was great. However like the reviews said the pool was dirty. Not things flouting on top dirty but GREEN steps and dirty walls. Before I rented I called and was promised the pool would be cleaned! It wasn’t….. a few phone calls later and someone showed up to clean and shocked it. Bad part is we all wanted to jump in the pool after a four hour motorcycle ride in and couldn’t tell the next day due to Chemicals. Over all a great place we had fun but my crew always does no matter where we go. Oh P.S cut the grass yard looked like bad.

Great location-cleaning company needs to do better

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is great. Loved that it was pet friendly for my fur babies. The house looked clean but I had to clean up a spill and the floors were filthy. There were roaches in the house. The seals around the doors were horrible so the bugs were able to come in. We had to buy bug spray to spray outside which helped a little. The rental place said they would spray after we left. I didn't want them to spray while we were there because of the dogs. The pool was great also.

Great location

The house was on a corner across from beach. Positives include outdoor shower. Well stocked kitchen although it was difficult to locate a certain utensil because nothing other then silverware was organized. Bathrooms for each bedroom was a plus. They allowed us to check in a 1;00 instead of 4. The wraparound porch and rockers were great. Negative: the floors were filthy. Made our feet black. There was so much dust under the master bedroom bed. The extra comforter was so soiled.(pictured). The rag rug in the kitchen was exactly that, a rag.(pictured)It was Thanksgiving. We cooked a turkey. The oven was filthy.(pictured) House was lacking amenities. Most VRBOs have pool table, porch swing, Beach chairs etc.The outdoor stairs had safety runners that were tearing away. The house is in need of updates The site does not allow for pictures.

We all LOVED IT !!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Where do I 4sons,their families & I (total of 14, from 5 different states)had a great experience. Loved being so close to the beach. The private pool was wonderful & refreshing on those very hot days. We only had one rainy day, so we set up several games & a food table in the open space under the house. The 5 grandkids could run around.(It would of helped if there was a cover over the main stairwell but it did not stop us)Everyone liked having their own bedrooms & bathrooms, the kitchen & great room was large enough to fit us all. The property location was the BEST!! It was close to Myrtle Beach & other beaches, so we could go out for a fun evening but come back to a quiet place, without the crowds. The property was cleaned & well maintained, plus all the amenities. Who would of guessed that having a washer/dryer would of been so wonderful!! A few evenings we just relaxed on the porch & enjoy the view. We even got to see a double rainbow over the ocean!!Since I've never been to this area it helped talking directly to the owner when I was trying to set up our vacation time. Suzy was also very helpful with things to do in the area. We felt more like we were visiting a friend's home, instead of a 'rental'!!Thank you very much, we had a great experience & can not wait to return.

We have always loved the South Beach because it is closest to the good food at Murrells Inlet.
