I highly recommend this condo, it is beautiful and spacious. The furnishings and artwork were spectacular. We especially enjoyed the gorgeous views from the balcony. It was clean and well -maintained and the location is convenient to everything. Gordon and Paula were gracious hosts, they even met us upon our arrival with goodies! Thanks for sharing your wonderful home. We are looking forward to our next stay!

I just can't say enough about your ocean home. We had 8 highly stressed adults when we arrived and now have 8 blessfully and sincerely relaxed people leaving. We all agree that no matter how absolutely lovely your condo is, the patio was our absolutely favorite spot. We will always have priceless memories of our week here. Thank you for your warmth and kindness.

We would like to sincerely thank you for sharing your beautiful home with our family and friends. For the past several years we've stayed in Ocean Isle, NC, at a beach house called "Peachy". We have had so many memories. Now that we've found your condo which I've nicknamed "The Gallery" we look forward to creating many more. Besides your condo, our trip highlights include the beach, the lazy river, the hot tub and the outside pool. When in the Carolinas, we also enjoy our annual dinners at he Sugar Shack in Ocean Isle, NC, Captain Georges across from Broadway At The Beach and lunch at Margaritaville. Before we go we must thank you for going above and beyond any other vacation house/condo in which we stayed. From the autographed painting, to the plate full of cookies and fresh flowers - it was all greatly appreciated and definately not expected. Many thanks from all of us to you...

What a wonderful trip we had... good baseball, good weather, great friends and a fantastic place to stay. Thanks so much for opening your home to us, we really enjoyed ourselves! The Hamptons- Your place is beautiful and we could not have asked for nicer accomodations. It was really beginning to feel like "home" at the end of the day as much as we ran. I often found myself roaming the condo and admiring all of the artwork. This place is a treasure and we're very grateful to have been able to stay. Thanks a bunch for the gift as well. We will certainly pass the word along about this place. The Medley's - A vacation to remember! The kids have memories for a lifetime and the adults wish they could remember it all. What a beautiful condo that quickly felt like home. Thank you for the cake and candy - a very nice touch!

Another wonderful week! So relaxing and once again we are sad to leave, but will treasure the wonderful memories we made.Thank you for making our vacation so inviting and relaxing. Your hospitality is greatly appreciated, and I already have the perfect spot picked out for our painting. The weather was wonderful, and the view from the balcony - breathtaking! Of course the boys loved the "big screens" and the golf course across the street! The older kids got to go para-sailing again, while the younger ones were content building sand castles and wading in the pool and lazy river. Thank you again for everything!

Thank you for sharing your lovely home. It was a great stress reliever! We had a great time as a family and many wonderful memories will be with us forever. As a family we come to the beach spring and fall for several years. The last 3 trips we were one less as our youngest son, Ben, age 24, died after a 2 year battle with cancer. Oh how he loved the beach! So we shared many fun memories of times at the beach with him.We mostly sat on the balcony, looking at the view, ate, laughed, and enjoyed each other. Again thank you, and thank you for the beautiful painting. Gordon and Paula, As far as our part of the Shackleys family goes, we had a much needed and perfectly timed relaxation fest. The food was great, the view was great, and the attractions were great! Gordon, your paintings are beautiful and inspirational!! The media room was AWSOME. Played alot of modern warfare on-line in there. I have a bigger T.V., but mine is apparently a pie

Gordon and Paula, In all our travels, my goal has been to find accommodations that are as nice as my own home. Mission finally accomplished! And then some, as I do not have the ocean outside my door back home in Minnessota. I do however have your beautiful paintings adorning my home so I truley felt right at home here. I have rented other VRBO homes before and your home and your hospitality far exceeds the others. Thank you for making us feel like treasured friends and for the artwork. Thank you sharing your delightful beach home with us. Your art is fabulous and the decorating superb. I especially enjoy all the low country oil paintings. Just amazing. We have had a delightful trip and the highlight has been the condo.
