The property was spacious and clean with an exceptionally stocked kitchen. The deck is huge and the the yard being fenced with a gate directly to the beach was beyond the perfect set up for me and the dog.I spent most of my weekend either on the beach or on the deck!

Wonderful staycation!

Loved this house for a family/pet friendly getaway. The yard was wonderful and the private beach access was the icing on the cake. The owner is very open to communication and accommodating as long as you ask her! Parking was very easy and kitchen gadgets are plentiful. The kids AND adults loved the arcade game machine. Good luck beating those top scores!

Beachfront Beauty

Southern Wave is a perfect rental for anyone who wants to be on the beach with family and friends……and family dogs. The house itself is very comfortable and welcoming. The kitchen has everything you would need. The fenced in yard is a bonus not many homes have. The “icing on the cake” was the large covered deck with plenty of seating……perfect for morning coffee and afternoon wine.

The property is beautiful. It is right on the beach. It has a fenced in yard. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the utensils you could ever need. The beds are comfy. The wraparound porch is wonderful. It is located near a great restaurant and big store. We would stay in this home again.
