Another Amazing Girl's Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Thank you Knot-A-Care for our 5th annual girls trip in this beautiful home. The comfort in this home welcomes us everytime we step in. This location is perfect for everything! We shopped, we cooked, we strolled the beach multiple times per day & had a fire on Dillon Beach one night!! Leaving is so hard. Already booked for next year!! Can't wait to come back. See you next year!

Good stay overall… many outlets in the house didn’t work or sparked if we tried to plug stuff in. The walk to beach was tough for our older family members with physical ailments so we ended up driving them down to the public area at Lawson’s landing, which cost 15 per car to park for the day.

Very comfortable! Stocked kitchen. Views the of the ocean from most rooms in the house and beach access just down the street. Our family of 6 had ample room to hang out together in the living and dining room. Management very responsive when we had questions or any needs. Great beach just a 5 minute drive from the house.
