Return to the island after 25 years

Very nice house. Recently remodeled. Everything looks and works great. The garage is a nice feature. Big master bedroom with private bath also a plus. I would definitely look to rent this again

Great Place to Stay!

After our trip to the mountains got cancelled due to Hurricane Helene, we were in need of another location for our weekend getaway. So we traded the mountains for the beach! We had the best time and this was one of the best places we have EVER stayed at. The house was incredibly clean, in a wonderful location, had lots of complimentary items that aren’t usually provided in a house rental, etc. We love the Southport area, so staying here gave us the best of both worlds being close to the beach as well as a 15 minute drive to our favorite little Southport town.

Nice Home

The location was nice and quiet. I did have a strange man look into the living room window, hopefully it was just a nosey neighbor. I informed the property manager. Everything was okay. The orher beds in the non master room were extremely soft and low to the ground, very hard to get up.

Very clean home,close to the beach, had some kitchen supplies as needed. The only problem was the door. We struggled at check in… the door wouldn’t unlock so we had to call customer service. Other than that. It was a lovely place

will never stay again

when we first artived at the property everything seemed fine. the next morning we went to take out trash and noticed there were no more trash bags. only 1 in kitchen and one in a bathroom. as my mother lioked in trash can she koticed a used condom.then we noticed old coffee in the coffee maker. my brother and sister arrived a day later to find semen stains on their cmforter and sheets. this is the worst place i have ever stayed when it comes to cleanliness. the sad part is i contacted management to be told i will pass the information and someone will call you. its been over a month and no one has reached out to address it, or to even say sorry.

It was okay.

We got there and had to do cleaning. I feel like on vacation. You shouldn’t have to do any cleaning at all the coffee pot had mold in it. We were big coffee drinkers so this was important. The bathroom mat hasn’t been cleaned underneath it. It had a lot of hair in sand right when we got there. Toothpaste on the mirror I’m not even sure the cleaner showed up before we got there. You go on vacation to relax and we immediately got on our vacation and had to clean. Not to mention the dirty dishes that were put up into the cabinet. We contacted them about it. All they did was come and replace a shower curtain that had been ripped before we got there. We stated these complaints privately and left a note for the cleaner. Just wanna make sure everyone knows what they’re getting into before they stay here with this company.
