Family gatherings-Beds for 20

Was a great house with plenty of room. Perfect location for beach and pool! An earlier reviewer said you couldn’t use the pools next to the house but we were told you could. Awesome week. Thank you!!

We had a group of 18 ranging from 16-80 yrs old. Plenty of room for everyone and the main living location was laid out well on the 3rd floor. Nice views of the ocean from the deck and crows nest. Home was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked with glasses, utensils, and dishes. Only knock I would have is that every bathroom was shared by 2 bedrooms. Definitely not a deterrent for our group but something to be aware of. One tip- there is no pool at the home and the main resort pools are about a mile away. We texted the hotline number in the check in packet. They gave use the code to the pool right next door at the tidewater condos. Very nice pool and super convenient vs lugging everything to the beach all the time. I’d stay here again if we returned to isle of palms.

This property is about a 20-25 minute drive through Isle of Palms and Wild Dunes from the IOP Connector. It's a bit tedious driving the distance just to run up to Harris Teeter to grab some paper towels. But, the house was clean and quite large. It's laid out a bit oddly, with bedrooms on the bottom two floors and the living area on the top floor, which can make it noisy for those trying to sleep when others are up. There are several porches which are nice for relaxing on. The dishwasher didn't always work and with our large group this was sometimes a big problem. Also, the settings on the stove are rubbed off and it's impossible to tell what's high/low ("off" is at a vertical setting of the knob - is left high or low?). We almost caused a fire putting some oil in a pan an chopping veggies for a couple of minutes.

Overall, our stay was good but I wouldn't rent this place again. I've rented homes on the non-Wild Dunes side of IOP and that is much more convenient and homes are better cared for.

Sleeping configuration perfect for all 19 of us!! Plenty of space for individual family activities: jigsaw puzzles, cards, some people had online work or studying. Kitchen and dining area well set up. Beach access lovely!! Even carts in the garage to cart our things to the beach!! Wild Dunes policy of no grilling took some working around, but would not stop me from reserving this unit again. Lauren answered our every question and was the perfect "hostess"! She even made suggestions that enhanced our visit. Would absolutely rent this home from Lauren again.

Unfortunately, the house's construction was such that it was extremely noisy, making it difficult to sleep on 2nd floor if anyone was even walking on 3rd floor. The rooms are small, with just enough space for bed and/or bunkbeds and table, as if builder was maxing out every foot of sleeping areas.

The property between next door house, was completely littered with trash.

Surprisingly, and disappointingly, the ocean was mostly brown from the creek water emptying into it just up the beach.

The owner was very pleasant to deal with, but there was pitiful lack of communication with property management.
