Great Location but Older Property.

Property was older than what I usually stay in but booking last minute I had to get what I could. I would give it a strong 3.5 stars.

Awesome Getaway

My family and I visit N Myrtle Beach annually. We have always had great experiences and this year was no different. The property owner was great - stayed in touch and there were no issues or surprises at check in. The property itself sits in a great location! As the listing stated the property is "literally" steps from the beach. The property was clean and very comfortable and majority of essentials were provided, such as dishes, hand soap, linens etc. Although we didn't need them, there were even beach toys available for use. My favorite part of the property was the huge screened in porch. We loved hanging out here during tea time and to play a few board games. Our grandchildren loved the yard which reminded them of home. We'd definately book here again. Overall, peaceful and relaxing vacation. Thank you.

Classic Beach House Charm

Excellent value. Clean and comfortable beach house with traditional character. If you want ultra modern then keep looking. If you want cozy, inviting classic beach feel with modern touches, this is it. Spacious for our 8 adults, 1 teen and 2 little ones. Damion, the host, is great…..very helpful and responsive. Great location….convenient to beach and Sea Mountain Hwy. i recommend it if you want a place for a large-ish family that won’t break the bank.

Fun for all

My entire family had space to themselves and were able to have fun and enjoy our stay. We each could retreat to our rooms or come out into the living area to congregate. It was clean and open. We all had fun.

Great family getaway (with dogs too)

Excellent location. Historic little house that they’ve done some nice little touches with to give it charm. Damion the host is very easy to work with. Where many owners did not accommodate us with two dogs, he didn’t bat an eye and was very helpful. The check in and out was simple and everything was as described. Very short walk to beach. Easy walk to Boulineau’s store as well. Great little stay for a quick family trip.
