Our family just returned from our vaction and completely enjoyed our stay in this home. The home was clean, cheery, and beautiful. The pictures of the murals and artwork cannot begin to show how truely beautiful this home is in person. This was a great place to stay for our family. Our six year old was able to ride his bike in the streets and play freely since there was little traffic due to this location, which we loved. Our kids loved the mermaid room with water matress under the lighted canopy and then pull out twin underneath. This house was a great place for our family vaction and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a three bedroom home to rent at Ocean Lakes. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Again, the murals and artwork were beautiful. We really enjoyed this home and would rent from the owners again.

6/11/05-6/18/05 (As written in our house guest book) Dear Kriegels, Accoring to your neighbors, we are your first renters, outside of the family and my family would like to tell you how much we have enjoyed your home. We met your neighbors our first night here and it has felt like home away from home ever since. My husband, Mike, hit it off with Cody right away. Cody even put a stereo in our golf cart. My son Michael, and his friend, Trey, will have many memories to share back home. From riding bikes to the late night talks with the girls two doors down from Lenoir, NC. After working up their appetities, they knew they could come in to your beautiful kitchen and get some lunch. We have never stayed in a place where we could just put our clothes away and feel right at home. You have everything here that anyone would ever need. That shows you are very thoughtful. Thank you for letting us rent your home. Becky and Mike. H., SC

7/2/05 (As written in our printed guest book) Hello Kriegels, We had a fabulous time staying in your beautiful home! Even on the first night, we slept as if we were at home! There was nothing we needed that we didn't have! We enjoyed your neighbors, Cody and Anita, who were very helpful in all the things we wanted to know. You are fortunate to have great neighbors next door! It was nice to have plenty of TVs as we had four kids to watch them. We really enjoyed the porch and the small picnic table was enjoyed by our smallest two. It was nice gettin gyou know you by phone. We hate we didn't get to meet you after all. God bless you and we may see you next year! John and Carmen, S Denton, NC

6/25/05 (As written in our printed guest book) Hey Kriegels, I had fun staying at your beach house, thanks a bunch. It was fun when we found hot guyes then brought them here and they were amazed with your creativity. I loved staying in the mermaid room because it is so cute decorated, plus the water bed is comfy. I love the pink flamingos because I love Pink and they are cute. Hope to come back soon. You're awesome and so is your beach house. B. West, Traveler's Rest, SC

8/13/2005 (As written in our printed guest book) Hi Kriegels! Thank you so much for allowing us to share your beautiful vacation home. It is truly remarkable. We were so impressed by your artistic talent and loved the bright happy colors. This was the first time in eleven years us, three sisters got to sepnd an entire week together (and lived to tell about it!) It was so sweet to watch Kyle (9 mos) experience the Sandy Beach for the first time, and Avery (15 mos) who could dig for hours. Again, thank you for the opportunity to rent your beautiful home!

(As written in our printed guest book) 7/30/2005 Dear Kriegels, Your beach house proved to be a wonderful place to spend a week at Ocean Lakes. We have been coming here since our teenagers were toddlers and this house was certainly the most beautiful place we've stayed. We had plenty of room and did without nothing. Your neighbors were also very friendly. Thank you for offering it to us at such a reasonable rate. See you next year.

July 4th week (as written in our printed guest book) Hello, We had a wonderful time! Our family hasn't had a week vacation in several years. This week felt like home away from home. The first part of the week my sister and her daughter stayed with us, and the second part, my dad, mom and little brother came. Eveyrone wants to come again. You have a special place here, and we hope to return next year. Jonathon, Regina, Phillip and Sara

Our family just spent an AWESOME week in the most comfortable vacation home we have ever visited. The Kriegels provided everything we could have needed and more for our stay. In the past, we have stayed in hotels when visiting the beach. Choosing to stay with the Kriegels relieved us of having to hunt for parking near our room, long elevator rides carrying baggage back and forth to the car, and stuffing our family into two and a half rooms that clearly are not "home". All this for no more than the cost of a nice hotel. The Kriegel's beach house felt like "home" to us. We were even able to invite others of our family to join us. Mrs. Kriegel has gone the extra mile to decorate the home with her own creative touches that added to the enjoyment of our stay. The week we spent there on East Sandlapper Drive was our first real vacation in several years. We enjoyed our stay so much that we hope to make it a tradition in the years to come.

We can honestly say this was one of our best vacations ever. All we had to do was unpack our suitcases, and it was just like home. The house is beautiful and the neighbors are wonderful. We didn't want to leave. This house is a must for anyone going to Ocean Lakes.
