David Letterman made the phrase famous, and most people associate it with comedy. However, let me suggest a different perspective. It is serious business when you and your family choose a vacation destination.
There will be plenty of time for fun and laughter when you arrive, but right now you want to make a good decision that will meet your needs. Instead of trying to ‘sell’ you on our rental, we will simply be delighted if we meet your needs and expectations. Let’s then move forward to having you as one of our guests. Here is OUR Top Ten List:
10. RATES - We are all very much aware of the financially challenging times in which we live. I use to think that no matter how bad times got people will still take their vacation. That is just not true this time around. Inquiries are way down. The only thing I know to do is to make sure I have the lowest rental rates. I have checked and rechecked my competition to make sure I have the lowest price. Now I need your help. It will not do any good to say ‘my budget is such and such, will you give me a 10 per cent discount or $100 off’. If you want a lower price, you must do your homework. Email me the lower price you find and the web link. I need to make sure we are comparing apples to apples. Expect to be rewarded for your efforts with a lower rate than the one you found.
9. PICTURES - Our website has sixteen photos. That is the limit VRBO allows. Whomever coined the phrase ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’ was a wise person. VERY IMPORTANT! CLICK ON VIDEO LINK ABOVE FIRST PICTURE UPPER LEFT OF THIS WEB PAGE. THIS HELPS TO TIE IN ALL SIXTEEN STILL PHOTOS.
8. FURNISHINGS - My wife and I live in Davidson, N.C., outside of Charlotte. Our home is beautifully decorated and our guests always love to look around. You can tell from their faces that they are somewhat in awe (my wife cooks too!) We both know the value of quality furnishing. We were speechless when we first walked into this villa. How could an owner rent out such a tastefully decorated home? It would be like renting out the Biltmore Estate.
7. GOLF - (Skip to # 6 if this is not on your radar) My office wall has two certificates prominently displayed for TWO holes-in-one! My words are not those of a novice: directly behind this villa are FOUR of the finest golf courses in this area of South Carolina. Each course was designed by the best names in the business: Pete Dye, Greg Norman, Davis Love III, and Tom Fazio. Should this not be enough to get your heart racing, consider that there are more then 100 golf courses less than an hour away.
6. YACHTS - Those of you who are blessed enough to be pulling up to our villa in a yacht, there is nothing to say here that you do not already know. How wonderful is it to be sitting on ‘your’ balcony looking down on your boat.
5. LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION - You have heard the phrase from every Realtor you know - enough said. You are located one half mile to the beach, on the Inland Waterway, next to SC’s largest swimming pool, steps from Barefoot Landing’s Shopping/Eating/Entertainment Complex, and have four golf courses you can walk to out your back door. If you know of a better location than this, please let me know-I’m selling and moving there.
4. HOUSEKEEPING - We have the absolute best housekeeper there is! No one wants to begin their vacation by walking into a dirty place. You will be given the cell phone number of our housekeeper. If you open the door and find the appearance and cleanliness not up to your high standards, please call him, and he will be there immediately to make you happy.
3. LOCKS - Strange thing to put on this list, isn’t it? The locks on this villa are Schlage, the best available. This model in particular is very high tech. The combination numbers will be easy for you to remember, because they are the last four digits of your home phone number.
2. COMMENTS - No owner of a villa in this location could resist embellishing the description of their property. Let me assure you that if there was a club for us, my fellow owners would elect me President. The best source of an honest evaluation of a rental property is from the guests that have stayed there. After reading this, please scroll down to the past guest comments before you do anything else.
1. MISCELLANEOUS - WIRELESS HIGH SPEED INTERNET at your finger tips. There is a lot of additional information to email you and standing by to answer any particular questions you might have. In the additional information I will emailing you various web addresses of other owners. You will learn a lot from their websites while you are comparing prices. Moving to the next step is easy. Just fill our the adjacant form and click 'Email Owner' and I'll take it from there. Before emailing us check the calendar to see about availability for the dates you want and carefully read about the rental rates. The rates are current(NOT subjected to change), and there is a section of 'fine print'.
HIGHLIGHTS IN REVIEW: 1)If you are requesting a lower price than our posted rate, then we need the web link to the lower priced one you are considering. 2)Check calendar for availability before submitting an inquiry. 3)Review the 16 pictures and video. 4)Read comments by past guests. 5)Thank you so much for considering our place.

Owner's Map of Yacht Club
My name is Peter Cole and I am the owner’s representative. I wear many hats: an oceanfront, resort, rental condo owner; property manager; rental agent; dog tender (That is Woody in the picture. Spends most of his day in the chair across from my desk watching me work.) and favorite; loving husband. As a Medicare card carrying senior, I look back over a full life. My chosen life ‘occupation’ (my Mother could never bring herself to call it a job) was to take teens on cross country camping trips; 3000 teens in all, spanning 33 years. My nephew Doug slipped into my shoes as I slipped into my retirement. My friends and relatives worried about my having too much time on my hands in retirement so they gave me their resort properties to manage. My reputation as a good manager/agent grew. Now 12 properties fill my stable. It was 1967 when I took ownership of my first rental property. In the years since, we have bought and sold 11. I come to you with a lot of experience. I do not take lightly the importance of your vacation. I want to match your needs with the properties I represent. There are 16 pictures, a video and lots of verbiage. I am here to answer all your questions.

Hi Peter, Just wanted to send you a quick thank you letter as we are unpacking and reminiscing about our delightful week in Myrtle Beach! The condo was spacious, inviting and gave us all plenty of room to sprawl out. The pool was refreshing and well taken care of. The excitement and abundance of activities to do was never ending and we filled our days and nights with many new adventures! We had a vacation that will stay near and dear to our hearts as we spend the upcoming months remembering, sharing and savoring that magical week! Hope that all of your staff is well and that we might visit again in the near future~

Peter, Everything about the unit and our stay at Barefoot was terrific. The unit was very clean and more spacious then the photos actually depict. The views of the intercoastal from the balconies were especially nice. The location is unbeatable as well. We would rent it again without a second thought. Thanks, Tim C.

We had an awesome time at 1505 Barefoot Landing. The condo was clean and bright. We could walk to the beach and to all the shops. The pool was clean and had alot of chairs. We had a great time and would stay again.

We stayed at 1505 Barefoot Landing in November 2009, and we were very pleased. It had more room than we needed, it had some of the little extra convenience items you might forget to pack, and it is nicely decorated. The condo was very clean, you would not know it allowed pets. It is conveniently located to swimming, dining, and shopping, but far enough away from the highway traffic. I would definitely recommend this property to a friend.

We stayed at 1505 Barefoot and had a wonderful time. At first we were worried about not being on the ocean, but the view is breathtaking and the condo is wonderful. The pool was all we needed!! Lots of room, no worrying about keys and everyone gets a bathroom. We were also thrilled to have our pet along. It was a very quiet location and we would definitely stay here again. The advertisement is 100% accurate and the pictures are current.

We stayed in 1505 at the Barefoot Landing Yacht Club recently and loved the condo! The location was ideal and convenient to the beach along with many fun activities. Upon arrival, the condo was very clean, all linens and towels were in place and entry was not delayed, actually a little early! The pool at the club was awesome! We found this condo to be very spacious, clean and comfortable. We hope to return for another vacation!

What a wonderful condo! It has everything you could want or need. My family especially liked the private bathrooms for each bedroom and the convenience of the keyless door lock! We experienced one minor maintenance problem which was promptly resolved by Bill. Thank you Bill! We will seriously consider returning to this unit in 2011 for our son's wedding.

This condo was spacious and breathtaking! The decor was superb! The view was fabulous! We loved the pool! This was without a doubt the "nicest and roomiest" condo we have ever stayed in. We will definitely be back to this condo! The location of this condo is great, as there are so many things to do that are so close! The price was SO RIGHT! Thank you for sharing this condo!
