We had a great time at Carolina On My Mind in DeBordieu. The house was nice with plenty of space, comfortable rooms, a well-stocked (overstocked--too much stuff in that tiny kitchen!) kitchen, and good AC. The house does need updates. While we were there, one of the hot water heaters broke and needed to be replaced, so we didn't have hot water in half the house for the whole week. Maintenance responded promptly, but it wasn't a problem that could be solved during our stay. The bathroom fixtures need to be replaced. They leak and squeak; some of the hot-cold indicators are backwards, and the kitchen faucet is on its last leg. The house has no outside hose, which is bizarre for a beach house. We looked all over for it in the garage and around the entire house, but we couldn't find one, so there was no way to wash off sandy feet after a day at the beach. The screened porch is not screened in. The screens are broken, so we weren't able to enjoy the porch without getting bit by bugs. Finally, the house is not a 5-minute walk to the beach as advertised. It's a 5-minute walk to the beach access point in the Ocean Oaks neighborhood. From there, it's another 10 minutes on a sandy path (3/4 mile total in walking distance). Owners are allowed to drive their golf carts along this path and park at the beach, but renters must walk. While we enjoyed ourselves and always love coming to DeBordieu, I'm surprised that such an outdated house so far from the beach was advertised and priced in such a way.
