About this property

Lakeside Retreat With Panoramic Views Like No Other

Our lakeside home is the perfect vacation spot for families. A bright spacious family room gives visitors a space to hang out, play games, or read. An extra table in the family room is the perfect spot for card games or extra seating at mealtime. A wall of windows allows for maximum sunlight and plenty of lake views. The kitchen has both a bar with seating for three and a dining area with a table for six. The bedrooms are spacious and living areas give plenty of room to spread out. The house sits on two lots and boasts a spacious backyard with a beautiful shade tree. There's plenty of room for the kids to play tag and the adults to sit and enjoy the lake or play a game of corn hole. Free wi-fi, a full kitchen, washer/ dryer, and a pier for sunning will be all your family needs to enjoy a quiet vacation in a homey atmosphere. There are also 4 kayaks for house guests. Lake Waccamaw is the perfect place to "get away" for a quiet retreat, and a change of scenery.

Vacay 2025

Three generations of family had a fabulous time at the lake house. Our favorite part was the ease of getting into the water and having the kayaks in tip-top shape made the water play even more fun. The interior met our needs as well.

The house and location was great, only complaint is the house was not clean by any means and was filled with spider webs along with the porch. I know the shower was not cleaned prior to us coming because there was a crumbled used bar of soap in the shower.

Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had plans to go to the beaches and other activities, but the house was so warm and inviting that we stayed in and relaxed. Missy was available immediately to answer any questions we had. We plan to book their again.

Very nice property. Great place with family and children. We attended a wedding nearby so unfortunately did not stay at the house much. We’ll be back to enjoy boating and sunsets!

Simple and quite

This is an older home that has much character. One thing we especially liked is its view of the back yard, lakeshore and dock are unobstructed so we could watch the kids from anywhere in the common areas of the house. The price was very reasonable and we had a pleasant experience.

Awesome Family Time

We had an awesome time staying at Sunnyside Up at Lake Waccamaw. The cottage was clean, inviting, and comfortable. It met the needs of our entire family from the youngest to the oldest. Missy (the host) was exceptionally helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend Sunnyside Up to another family.

Family Long Weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunny Side Up! Missy was more the great to work with and very accommodating. We hosted our son’s 1st birthday party in the backyard and when your family has more kids than adults this is the perfect setting! Swimming, yard games & grilling out made for a relaxed and fun weekend. The lake is shallow which is perfect for kids & adults who want to play baseball in the lake. The house was spacious, wi-fi great & the kitchen was equipped well. Missy even left some kid friendly snacks & juice pouches! We will return every year if able. Highly recommend for a family fun week/weekend.

Church Mission Trip

The property met all our needs and was totally adequate for our purposes. There were 7 of us. We were able to easily schedule bathroom times for showers so only two bathrooms was not a problem, and we prepared food but with such a great porch and backyard we always ate outside. Part of the house is old and dated but not a serious problem. The slab floor in the older part is interesting.

Rustic Relaxing Retreat

We arrived on property a few days after a tropical storm hit the area. We booked the house to stay w/ family & friends for our daughter's wedding that Saturday. We were surprised to find the grounds flooded & no paved parking or sidewalks! We had to remove shoes, walk thru squishy mud & wipe feet in house. Repeat each time we went to car or house! Not great for events where you are wearing formal clothes! My parents had to leave & find another VRBO as it was too messy for them. Also, only 2 bathrooms & 1 did not have an outlet. With ladies needing to get ready for a wedding, not good. If you book the property, know that it is very rustic. I didn't dislike it. I liked the relaxing environment & amazing views. It was comfortable & clean. It was close to town & the alligators were mesmerizing. I gave the property an overall 4 rating because it is was it is advertised to be. I just wish I had known about the no driveway/sidewalk issue. Additionally, I wish the dock had seating on it. We would take towels out to the dock to sit on while we watched the sunrise. I will add that the owner was extremely quick to respond.

About the host

Hosted by Stone and Bailey Families

Host profile image
Growing up going to Lake Waccamaw holds many dear memories. We would stay at our grandparents' house and spend countless days on the lake fishing, boating, and tubing. We feel Lake Waccamaw is North Carolina's best-kept secret. With over 2,000 acres of state parkland, the lake has remained very residential with little to no commercial development. Four generations have enjoyed funfilled summers on the water.
