This house was so cozy! It had everything we needed. The bed was sooo comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with necessities. We all became pool sharks, it gave the family something fun to do at night while listening to music. Our dog felt at home and the golf cart was amazing. So convenient to get us tothe beach with all our stuff with parking paid. Love this place! Also the beach was so big and hardly any people and dog friendly! The grocery store right down the street. The host was very communicative from day one .California Dreamin in Carolina!

Communication was excellent and the house was perfect for us. Had a great time unwinding in the game room after a day out. Had the golf cart but didneed to use it as the beach was a short walk away. Will definitely stay again.

Don't be fooled by the hype. There was nothing special like cupcakes on arrival and I even informed the host more than once that I was celebrating my birthday. I would have been happy with a "happy birthday" banner from the dollar store. Putting a few pictures on the wall doesn't make someone a designer. The "kids" room with the bunkbeds has white bedspreads and pillow cases, which anyone with children knows is not the best idea. The game room is a converted garage with no air conditioning and even with both ceiling fans running full speed, it was too hot to enjoy during the day and I was there in early October. The first night we were there, a mouse came out from under the couch in the game room and we saw roaches on the walls on other nights so we didn't spend much time in that area. That is where they kept the beach towels so I wouldn't use them for fear of mice. The ice maker in the freezer didn't work and no ice trays were provided so we had to buy ice. Also, there was no first aid kit where they said it should be located and we never found one. All in all it was over priced for what it was. Paint was peeling on the exterior and the house isn't all that. We didn't use the golf cart much since the road that takes you to anywhere had a lot of traffic that drove much faster than the cart.

I loved all the extras in the property: Pool table, corn hole, beach towels, arcade games, foosball table, PlayStation, and water cooler! Linens were provided, and NICE! Only thing I might add is appliances need to be updated, and the light above the front door was out. Hard to key in the door code in dark.
