A place for everyone in the Family

The home was beautiful. All things you need for a wondeful vacation, ocean view, a few steps to the beach, board games if it rains, plenty of space in the home, organized, and clean. Russ was a wonderful host so fast to respond and help with not only questions I had about the beach house but helpful with tips of things to do as well. This is a must stay for any family.

Well appointed, great location!

Russ was an amazing communicator and host. The house was very well stocked with blankets and spices and we really liked the “pay it forward” attitude; leaving little treats for the next guest. The house is the perfect size and was very clean. Easy access to the beach and we loved that we could use the beach chairs and toys for the kids since flying with those items is impossible. We will be renting from him again. Thank you for a great vacation!

Great beach house

We were grateful the owners allowed us to book a short stay at their beach house. This beach house was very clean, beautifully decorated, well taken care of, had a well supplied kitchen and very close to the beach. Owner was also a joy to work with.

Great Get a Away at Ocean Lakes

My family and I enjoyed staying at this delightful home. It was so nice just being steps away from the beach. We love the fact that the kitchen was roomy with lots of eating space. Also love the outdoor seating on the front deck. The house was spacious and felt like home. We look forward to staying back at this home again!

Amazing

This was an amazing vacation. I can not say enough good things about the owner. He would respond to any questions immediately and also gave his cell number if any issues arose. The house was very clean and so close to the beach that we were able to take pictures from the porch. There were even beach toys and chairs so we didn't have to bring them on our 13 hr drive to Myrtle Beach.

Amazing stay at this property

The house was absolutely perfect. Aside from it’s awesome location, the house was well stocked with all the comforts that you can’t always bring with you on vacation. The cabinets were stocked with all the essentials (spices and all staple pantry items) and it was easy for us to relax and enjoy our home away from home for a week. It’s easy to tell that the home owners have their guests in mind and do all that they can to ensure that we’re comfortable and have the best stay.

Great Beach Getaway

Our family of 8 had a great time at the beach for Spring Break even though it was a bit chilly. We enjoyed the stocked home and had everything we needed! The only thing that seemed to be an issue was the water getting cold when we were all trying to take showers (we’re used to our tankless water heater!) Overall, we had plenty of space and a great view! Enjoyed playing cornhole on the deck. Thanks again!

A little bit of Heaven!

The Oyers beach house was perfect!! They provide a well appointed beach retreat! Their attention to detail made my extended stay care free and most enjoyable. The location provides beach access and I will miss my daily beach walks. There are many places in the area to rent, but I feel I made an excellent choice in renting from the Oyers

We enjoyed our week. The house was great ,the golf cart parades at night were a hit with our kids . They enjoyed the basketball and volleyball courts . We enjoyed the pool and slides a lot . It was such a relaxing place. We honestly didn’t have to leave the OL much at all . We would definitely go back.

Home away from home

Our family had a wonderful time at this beach house. It was very clean and spacious. We had family with little ones that were able to have their own space and sleep peacefully. This house is located just yards away from the beach which made it so convenient to walk back and forth. The owner is very easy to communicate with and answered any questions l had promptly. We will definitely rent this house again.

Fantastic Week!!

We had such a great week! House was perfect for our needs. Ocean Lakes in itself is a great location for kids and adults, from the water park, basketball courts, cornhole etc. This location made it even better because it was so close to the beach! The owner, Russ, was also super attentive, responsive and accommodating throughout the entire process and that really makes a difference. We will definitely be back!

Fun House in a Great Location

This beach house really is exactly 77 steps to the beach. It is decorated in a fun decor and is very spacious and comfortable. We like to cook and the kitchen was supplied with everything we needed. The weather was cold and very rainy so we did not get to enjoy the spacious decks and furniture. The only thing missing was our grandchildren. Guess we will have to come back!!

Very impressed!!!

My family had a wonderful stay! The house comfortably fit 9 of us- 5 adults and 4 children. We all agreed that the house was better than described! The kitchen did not lack a thing! All the dishes, pots and pats and even a coffee maker, microwave, toaster and blender made the stay easy. The proximity to grocery stores to fill to the fridge and pantry was great! The 4 bedrooms and 2 and 1/2 bathrooms gave everyone the space they needed. The living room and dining room made evenings easy and comfortable. The house truly is wonderful! It's so close to the beach and the bin full of chairs and sand toys makes a beach day just right! We all enjoyed walking the Ocean Lakes property and visiting the pool and Sandy Mart. Russ was easy to communicate with and very easy to work with. My son and I, my parents and my sister's family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in April 2016. I immediately came home and encouraged people to check out Ocean Lakes properties via Home Away (specifically Russ) and book an affordable and awesome vacation!

Best Beach House!!!

I have stayed here once before and came back to the same house because of the location, cleanliness and amenities of the house inside the Campground. The pictures matched the house perfectly. Its is just footsteps away from the beach which is a huge plus. The house is in excellent shape and decorated beautifully. There is so much room in this house, the porch is big and has a great view of the beach. The bedrooms are large and have a nice beach theme to them. The kitchen is large as well and is fully stocked with everything you can possibly need. Everything is up to date, Washer, Dryer, Dishwasher, TV's, internet, you want for nothing when you stay here. The owners were very accommodating, friendly and were always available to answer any questions at anytime. I would highly recommend this house to anyone and with no doubt stay at this house again when returning. There are some many attractions and restaurants to choose from, Broadway on the beach, Barefoot landing, Pirates Voyage are some attractions we go to all the time. Crabby Mikes, Crackle Barrel, Dead Dog Saloon, Seafood Fare, Drunkin Jacks and the list goes on, so many places to choose from to eat. Also if you want a night to stay in, the Campground provides everything you need. A fully stock grocery store, two ice cream shops, where you can also order quick item foods, hamburgers, chicken fingers, hotdogs, etc. Play around of miniature golf, take a nice stroll on the beach at sunset or just sit back on the porch that has a nice view of the ocean. I hope my review was helpful to anyone looking to have a great peaceful vacation, footsteps from the beach.

First Family Vacation

This past summer we decided to take our first family vacation with my then 16 month old son. We had the grandparents and uncles in on the vacation too, and what a perfect place to start this tradition! The house has everything you need to feel at home, comfy couches, nice size bedrooms, gates for the stairs if you have a little one, and so nicely decorated! The master bedroom was the perfect size for having a little one with you. Plenty of room to set up a pack 'n play and have extra room to move around. A hall closet provided extra storage for luggage, towels, and odds and ends. The kitchen is a great size with a large pantry (I like to put things away), and everything you would need to cook a family meal. Basics, like salt and pepper, and hand soap were all there to use! There is one bedroom on the main floor, around the corner from the kitchen, another storage closet, and washer and dryer tucked away in a double door closet in the kitchen. Everything is conveniently laid out and bathrooms are good sizes! And most importantly everything is maintained and very clean! The absolute best part is how close to the beach you are! 77 steps is not an exaggeration! The beach is nice and short too, so you can be swimming in the ocean in less than 5 minutes! Rent a golf cart from Ocean Lakes and scoot around the campground! The recreation center pool is very large, with a splash area for kids, and an additional baby pool. My best advice though is to check out the recreation center on your first day (or second) to find out what is going on for the week. They have lots of activities, and discounts on shows in the area, and I am sure much more! But why leave Ocean Lakes, everything you need is right there! Book this house for a great family vacation!

About the host

Host profile image
We reside in Murrells Inlet, SC. I grew up in NJ. My wife is originally from WV. Our son is a 911 dispatcher for the Rockland County, NY Emergency Services and our daughter, who is a speech pathologist, lives in Alaska with her husband and 2 young daughters.







Why they chose this property

Our family has vacationed in Ocean Lakes every summer since we discovered the place in 1992. Our kids loved the place and still do as adults. We would bring their bikes and when they weren't on the beach they would ride to the arcade or pool. In 2006 we purchased our beach house and are happy to give other families the chance to have the Ocean Lakes experience

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this house because of the closeness to the beach. 77 steps! No need to drive the golf cart or look for a parking spot. The open floor plan is also an attribute.
