Everything about our stay was perfect. Pet friendly, love the balconies, and perfect view of the beach. Location couldn’t be any better. Waking distant to the pier. Overall the house is beautiful.
We really enjoyed our stay in your unit. It was very clean and comfortable, easy to get to, location was awesome, and the garage was a great benefit. The views from the balconies were tremendous. Highly recommend booking a vacation here!
Such a lovely townhome! Very clean, walk right to the beach! Balconies from living room and master bedroom upstairs have great view of ocean. Garage space for both cars and plenty of room for the golf cart rentals too. Love the location so close to the pier to walk and get some drinks and watch the ocean. Close to our favorite restaurants in Murrell’s Inlet (very short car ride) and golf cart rides to everywhere else. Love this place and highly recommend. Would definitely stay here again.
Very clean and well cared for property. It was right on the beach. The views were gorgeous. It was a short walk to the pier and town. We would definitely stay here again.
This townhouse is perfect—even better than advertised. It is in the perfect location with beautiful views of the ocean and easy access to the beach. The house is also beautifully decorated.
Close to the beach great veiw .The only negative is the towns portal potty just outside the rental across the public access to the beach. The property was clean and neat and I would recommend it.
The house was clean. The few short steps to the beach made it very easy with small children to take breaks if needed. Close to many restaurants with water view. The balcony views were beautiful.
Perfect location for walking out the door and being on beach. House very clean and had all the amenities that we needed. Owner very responsive as we needed help with one of tvs, minor adjustment made quickly. Would highly recommend and hope to be back next year. Was able to bring our fur baby so it made our vacation complete.
Thank you for opening your vacation home to us.
Everything was wonderful. Condo is beautiful and steps to the beach. The only problem was street noise-mostly from motorcycles. People also kept parking in front of condo garage…they were asked to move so we could get out.
We enjoyed the house and location very much. It was the perfect space for 4 adults and a dog. The only draw back was the heavy cigar and pot smoke from the neighbor renting next door. We had to keep the windows and sliding doors closed much of our stay.
We feel very at home here. The kitchen is well stocked and bedrooms are comfortable. On the cold days, we enjoyed the peaceful view from the living room windows. Warren is very responsive and a super host. The way this condo is decorated and maintained reflects his attention to making sure it is clean and a very pleasant and restful place to stay.
We stayed here to celebrate our 40th anniversary, and it was a fabulous time! The whole house is beautifully decorated in beachy colors and decor, very neat and clean, beautiful views of the ocean from every room, and you walk out & you’re on the beach. Two balconies with ocean views guaranteed that we were up to watch the sunrise, sitting out on the balcony with cups of coffee. It was a wonderful and memorable way to celebrate.
The townhouse was clean, comfortable, and spacious for our group (two couples plus 1 adult). The location was great - just steps away from the beach and wonderful views of the sunrise.
The beds are very firm. We slept fine though. I just wish it was softer. Also there’s not many beach chairs available - bring a couple of your own.
Owner was very responsive and easy to deal with. Id stay here again for sure.
This home is absolutely beautiful. It’s very close to the beach, not far at all from any attractions, friendly locals, and accommodated for all of our needs. This home was very homey and very clean. I would recommend it to anyone! There’s even accommodations for children such as beach toys, cups, and a kids room. If you’re looking at this wondering whether to book or not; BOOK! :)

It was very clean. Everything worked properly. Communication was perfect. Loved the pier being nearby and how close this condo was to the small grocery store and a few restaurants including a great pizza place and an ice cream parlor. Would recommend this highly. Did I mention it was VERY CLEAN? The reviews on cleanliness is why I rented this particular one and our whole family really appreciated it. Also, the beach front location was so nice, lovely views on the balconies! Rent this, you'll be a happy beach bum!
This was the third time we stayed in this condo. It was a very unusual year with colder than normal temps. But the owner was very responsive when we contacted him regarding the heating unit not being able to keep up. As we understand it, heating pumps are not built to heat as well as a furnace under these unusual circumstnces. All in all we very much enjoyed our stay and will stay here again.
