We enjoyed staying here for our family reunion. The only thing that was disappointing was the “Game room “ . Was much smaller than appears in pictures , had a card table and the air hockey machine did not work at all.

Farther to the beach than described, I believe, unless went in a straight line through back yards. I recommend renting a golf cart. Should clean up some trash behind the house , not a big deal. Fire alarm went off three times for no reason. Now for the good!Pool was great! Plenty of space and the kitchen / family room was perfect!Loved the hammock and the views! With the golf cart took a ride every evening in the wonderful neighborhood and the grandkids Loved it!Would definitely recommend!

May Vacation with the family

The home was clean and provided us with rooms for the family to spread out.Having the heated pool was worth the extra money, given that the ocean was a bit cold for the little ones.The home could use some updating.Overall, we were all very happy with our stay.

Our stay was great. Loved the location.

The house size was great for the number of people we had. We did have an issues with the lower level air conditioning unit, but the rental company was quick to resolve it. We also had some clogged shower drains and they fixed that right away too. Overall it was a great trip and a great place to stay for the week.

A longtime dream come true.

All the kids and grandkids under one roof for multiple days by the beach. We did it and we did it with little effort. Accommodations and cleanliness were key along with bathrooms for each of the five families and more for the kids. Dream come true.

I’d give it 4 stars

Overall it went well but we had 2 infants and was not able to access the house earlier than 4. Which was very worrisome in 92 degree heat. Also there were no bikes there or beach chairs. The kitchen was very well furnished but the electric outlets on both sides of the sink and on the island quit working on Friday.

Perfect Property for Us

The layout of the house was perfect - kitchen and living room area on the top level, bedrooms on levels one and two. Kitchen was amazingly equipped - it had everything! We traveled with six adults and five children between 2 and 6 years of age. Pool was perfect for our needs. We enjoyed lunches at the picnic table by the pool. There was plenty of outdoor deck space. The decor in the house was very tasteful - we enjoyed going on "art hunts" to count mermaids, crabs, etc. We also enjoyed the location of the house - less than 2 miles to the Food Lion and Seafood Market, and only a few blocks to the beach. While we cannot do this trip every year, we will look to rent this house again when we return in 2026. Sincere thanks to the owners who made this property available to rent.

Nice property but needs a few upgrades

House was clean but carpet is old. AC vents on the 3rd floor were dirty and need to be changed. We have family members in HVAC that noticed that. Ocen and stove really need to be replaced. Could not open window in the 2nd floor front window. All this to say we had a good time but we would not rent this property again.

great overall house and location, a bit in need of updating

The house and location were just as advertised. We were an extended family of 12 and had plenty of room. The kitchen has loads of dishes, cooking utensils and appliances. The furniture in the great room is worn and should probably be replaced. Most of the rooms are carpeted with a shag carpet that does not work well for a beach house. The front porch was covered in cob webs. The gas grill needs a through cleaning. The bottom was lined with at least an inch of ashes along with a partial hot dog. Only 4 of the 6 gas pipes would light, and the igniter does not work. I would rate the overall house with 3.5 starts given the size of the house and the location.
