The house is so cute and well maintained and the location couldn't be better. We lived on the porch with the windows open when we weren't by the water. It was so wonderful to be here the waves and feel the breeze all the time. We couldn't have asked for anything better.

Great Location But House Needs Work

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is in a great location. But the house needs work. First there was a lot of water coming in from the roof during a rainstorm. Turns out a lot of tiles were missing from the roof. Secondly the master bathroom needs a lot of work - the wallpaper is peeling and the shower rod is rusty. The couch in the living room is rattan and not very comfortable. The house is quite so an ious and has a nice sunroom.

Great Vacation Rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enjoyed our stay here. Couldn't have asked for a closer place on the beach. It was great!My only complaint is when we got there it was extremely hot in the house. It was set at 76 and said "keep at 76". That is way to hot to keep a house when its in the 90's. It did cool off once we lowered the temp but there was no way we could keep it at 76 and be happy and comfortable. The rooms don't seem to have good airflow and were stuffy. They have fans in the bedrooms so we used those. The place could use an updated AC unit. Thankfully the place eventually cooled off in all and we stopped sweating. The house itself was great and the locations is the selling point to this house. I would stay again. Staff was really nice when checking in!
Response from VrboOwner on 30 May, 2022
Thank you for your review. 76 is a desired temperature when the house is vacant - setting below but above 70 is typical when the home is occupied, and our apologies on any confusion this may have caused. We do hope you will come back and stay with us again in the future.

Peaceful vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great vacation enjoyed everything. The roof leaked during heavy rain which was almost every day. There were multiple leaks, 4 that we counted 3 in the living room and one in the kitchen. Gave me concern that there maybe a mold problem.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Feb, 2023
Thank you for your review. The homeowner has been working very hard with the roofing company in our area to repair and replace these spots. It typically only happens when there is a heavy rainfall with wind. There is no mold in the property - all our properties are tested for it regularly due to the high humidity of our area. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your vacation otherwise and we hope to have you back in the future! Update: The roof was completely replaced in Feb of 2023.

First and last time at Dingy

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Disappointing. Needs a new roof, badly. Spent too much time putting out pots to catch water leaking in, then making sure the kids didn’t trip over them when playing inside. Would not stay again and think we should get some monetary compensation
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Feb, 2023
Thank you for your review. The owner just had the roof replaced over the fall and continues to make upgrades and adjustments to the home. Unfortunately most of the houses in Pawleys Island face leaks when it rains VERY heavily and that comes with the territory of renting classic Pawleys Island beach cottages. Certainly we hope this did not disrupt your stay too much and we hope to have you back in Pawleys Island again in the future! Update: The roof was completely replaced in Feb of 2023.

The Little House was a great getaway!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The little house is seasoned with love, and the description arrogantly shabby fits it perfectly. The furnishings are tired but the house has "good bones" and feels good the moment you walk through the door. My family and I loved our stay, enjoyed the beach, the "Night of a Thousand Candles" and it was a perfect getaway for us. Thank you for sharing your home with us, and Merry Christmas from the Boltons!
