Beautiful house with an even better view. Upstairs bedrooms were a little different because you have to walk through two of the bedrooms to get to the other two bedrooms but other than that it was a wonderful vacation. We loved the community pool and beach access.

Amazing views, perfect location

We had such an amazing time during our vacation. The location is perfect with short walk to the beach yet on the water (sound side). Views are amazing and everyone enjoyed being on the dock, fishing, crabbing. Kayaks where available for use as well. Kitchen is very well stocked. The layout of the house really worked for our family and everyone was comfortable. We have been coming to NC/SC beaches for years for our family vacation and this house by far was our favorite. Thank you for letting us stay there!

Fantastic house & location

What a great house for vacation! Had everything we needed and more. The dock was perfect for the kids to fish & crab and the walk to the beach was so easy and quick. The clubhouse and pool was an added bonus. Though tropical storm Debby brought rain most of the week we still thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely be back!

The Perfect Place for Water Lovers

This house is in such a perfect place. The sound is behind the house with a beautiful deck and dock to fish from, kayak, or just relax. The beach is a block and a half away and an easy walk. We all highly recommend this house and look forward to staying in it again in the future.

Horse is located perfectly with Sump Sound at the back and the beach 2 blocks away. It was very well appointed, up-to-date appliances, and very clean. We had bicycles and kayaks available to launch into the sound. Host was responsive & kind. We would stay there again!

Beach Time!

We had a wonderful week! The host responded immediately to each question. The house is spacious and set up nicely for families. The only con is that the upstairs bedrooms are all connected and the mattresses upstairs are a bit uncomfortable. The primary bedroom with a king bed is on the first floor and is very comfortable. We enjoyed our week! Highly recommend the property and this host.

Beautiful beach vacation

We had a very nice time. Easy access to the beach after a short walk. The pool area was further than I thought it would be but again a short walk or drive. The house was very nice but I feel it could have been cleaner. Dog hair on couch and floors. Loved the deck and dock area Grandkids enjoyed fishing. The sunsets were amazing. The beach was nice and clean. I would recommend this house for anyone with large family.

Nice place

Nice layout, very helpful signs on lights and devices on proper use. Nicely equipped with "toys" for use. Having access to dock on sound was a hit with the men and children. Easy access to the beach. Will certainly consider this property depending on the size of our group.

A Perfect Place

We first visited several years ago and when planning this trip, everyone said, "Could we stay in that place on the sound again?" The house is beautifully appointed and maintained, has a good supply of beach chairs, sand and surf toys for kids, kayaks for exploring the sound, and mornings and evenings overlooking the sound are simply wonderful! Good beach/ocean access. The house is well set-up for family dinners and the kitchen has everything you need. Quibbles: we thought it was time for some new mattresses and pillows. The bikes in the garage were not in great shape, but our crew did not miss having them. We will absolutely come here again -- and again!

Property location was great! Loved the dock and short walk to the beach! Also loved the fact that there were fishing stuff, kayaks and bikes there for our use. When we arrived the home was not up to par as far as cleanliness. Had to clean before we moved our stuff in for the week. The upstairs was way worse than the downstairs. Actually found a piece of glass in one of the upstairs bedrooms. It was in plain view! Looked like the bedroom floors upstairs had not been vacuumed in a while. The shower upstairs was also nasty and had a lot of hair in the drain. Lots of smudges on the windows. Someone needs to find a new cleaning service! The beds were not very comfortable either especially master bed.

We promptly hired a new cleaning crew. You were the first to bring this to our attention and appreciate that . The master bed mattress is a brand new quality mattress not a mattress in a box . We are sorry it was not to your liking . We did pick one we thought was not to hard not too soft

Family Vacation

Really enjoyed our stay at this location. The Sound was absolutely beautiful and had view of sound from most of the windows back side of home. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking breakfast for everyone so it was wonderful having that view while I cooked every morning. Our family enjoyed fishing off the dock and spent a lot of our time out there and kayaking. Our only complaint was the bed situation. Needed to have queen bed in the twin bed room for adults and the mattresses on twin beds were not comfortable and the other queen bedroom upstairs the mattress was the same. Other than that everything was perfect and will definitely stay again. One of our most favorite vacations 💕and the owners contacted us as soon as had any questions and were extremely friendly and helpful which was a huge plus💕

Great place for close family

The location is great with the beach access a short 2 block walk away and the dock on the sound is perfect for fishing and crabbing! The pool is a definite drive but there was available parking each time we went and you can also use the clubhouse as a beach access point. The back deck is pretty aged, need to be careful for splinters or raised nail heads but there was an awning that was nice in the afternoon. Lots of random "beach stuff" in the garage downstairs that is in rough condition (sand toys, chairs, bikes, kayaks, wheeled cart) and they have a shower outside in the back and a hose in the front of the house to wash off sand. The main floor is a round layout with big windows to the sound, a half bath and the Master bedroom/bathroom. Upstairs has the other full bathroom and is split into 2 sides where you walk through one bedroom to get to the other. One side is a queen bedroom connected to a bunkbed/queen room, and the other side is a double twin bedroom connected to a bunkbed room. Not much privacy if your family isn't close but it was fine for us. The beds/pillows were ok for comfort but were very squeaky. The kitchen has lots of random items and the pans are in rough condition like most rentals although there were 2 really nice and sharp knives. The AC worked great, along with the washer/dryer and the fridge water/icemaker. The house was tidy but wasn't super clean when we arrived. It is a great spot if you aren't too fussy.

Overall a good week

Initially things were great. Location is good; close to surf city shops and restaurants. We realized the the following morning that the upstairs AC wasn’t working, which unfortunately was a Sunday. A call was placed and message was left because it was a weekend. There was no call back. I ended up calling again on Tuesday (Monday was a holiday) and the lady who answered was apologetic and helpful, however it’s awful to have gone 2 days without AC upstairs, it was 78+ up there and guests couldn’t sleep. The AC was fixed that day thankfully. Just super frustrating that there was no acknowledgement of the issue. On Tuesday we also reported that the dryer wasn’t working properly and advised a local repair man would be reaching out to setup a time to come out. Zero communication from this local person. Called back Wednesday and Thursday regarding this issue and Friday morning the repair man came to fix the issue, the day before we were set to check out. I guess there should be given some grace due to the weekend and holiday, but acknowledgement would have been nice, even if it was to say someone would be out Tuesday. Friday we had a roach crawl across the main living area next to the kitchen. Only one was spotted, but where there’s one there is usually more. The pool was quite the trek for the older adults of the group. It was about a half mile walk from the house to the club house/pool in the portion of the community across the main road which wasn’t a known detail when booking.

The house was very clean, and the property itself was beautiful! We did have a small hiccup with check-in, but it was ultimately resolved. The beds weren’t the most comfortable, but overall, we enjoyed our stay and really appreciated how clean and well-maintained the property was.

What a great vacation!!Communication with Sherry, the property manager was clear and concise. She helped with our questions. Very thoughtfully stocked (and clean) house-- beach gear, bikes, crab traps, kayaks, linens, well stocked kitchen, great appliances, and two air condition units. It even had fire ladders and a fire blanket. We appreciated that, a ton, as we've recently had a fire at our home. Very important detail that many owners miss. It was a very comfortable stay. Thank you. Location is perfect. Quiet back road that was walkable and peaceful. Walked to the beach everyday with small kids, with no problems. Watched the sunset from the porch. Outdoor activities with no travel. Ghost crabs were abundant at the closest beach access!Plenty of space for our family of 5. Could comfortably fit many more. The king size bed was not comfortable in my opinion, but I found another bed that i liked and slept in it just fine!The fishing was not good, as the sound is very shallow, so catching reds, founder, trout was non existent. A lot of little bait stealers (pin fish and crabs)!! We did catch stingray (not skate) and plenty of shrimp and blue shell crabs, which was fun. Maybe based on time of year or tide, someone could have better luck than we did. We are not professional anglers but we do consider ourselves better than average!Definitely would stay here again and recommend it to other families!! Thank you

good time! We loved having the sound in addition to the beach and pool.

The bedrooms are great for parents and children, but if you have all adults and plan on using all of the bedrooms, some adults will have to walk through a bedroom to get to theirs. It was not a problem for us. We so enjoyed spending the evenings on the dock on the sound. My suggestion would be to bring some extra towels - they had lots of beach towels, but were shy on bath towels. We hope to go back!
