This is my second time booking this home. It is absolutely perfectly sized for our family. Great location right on the water.Great times and beautiful home.
The check-in process was easy, the house was nice and the beach was beautiful. We had a wonderful family reunion,. We had 20 family members that were able to gather together for several days all I the same house.

This house needs work
The house looked as if it has been abandoned. No one took the time to paint/fix the imperfections before renting out.

Multi generational family beach trip
We spent the week with 16 people from age 3 to 80 and had a great time. Location of house could not have been better. Very easy walk to beach and sand is easy to walk on. Check in process and communication with host was very easy. The house had plenty of room and everyone had there own space. It was raining on and off all week so the covered porch was nice. Downsides where since it was raining drive way and parking areas were flooded most of week. Also since house accommodates up to 20 people more than 1 trash can would be nice and the house just needs some tlc, needs a paint job and bathrooms need some upgrades. Overall we had a great trip and house worked for our family.

Jeep Topless Weekend
First off, our Jeep group loves to come to Surfside Beach for this annual event. We do NOT like to go to Crystal Beach for this event due to so many other Non-Jeep people ruin it for us. As far as the beach house itself... great location! Our only negative notes are this, the door handle on the entry door needs to be replaced... it is old and warn out. The shower curtain liners need to be replaced, they were was mold on them... other than the mosquitos... we had a great time.
Great view. Easy access to the beach. Two refrigerators! Plenty of hooks for towels and bathing suits. Great chairs on the covered porch made it a favorite spot to watch the sunrise, the birds, the waves, the people, etc.
Inside it was warmer upstairs than down, but that could be helped with some dark curtains. Other minor issues: missing batteries in the remotes, very little lighting under the house, and no oven mitts. Bathrooms are a little tight.
We had a fantastic stay at this beach house, it was clean, very well loved (some wear here and there) but perfect for our family vacation. They however do not have in this listing that the water is unsafe to drink and cook with. It was a big hassle to buy and bring in loads of water. It was not a deal breaker, but definitely something I wish they had put in the listing so I knew what we were getting into.

Sewer over flow and maintence
Check in was easy but upon arrival and inspection of property we found it dirty and in a state of disrepair. Entry door was very hard to work by our entire family each time we entered or exited the house. We fixed a few things during our week. We cleaned windows, repaired toilet paper hangers fixed shelve in freezer side of fridge(preventing its closing). Several smoke detectors were inoperable or just laying in a drawer. The kitchen sink sprays water from left side of sink. The carpet, rugs(had duct tape keeping it together), walls and shower stalls were dirty and stained. Lamps on nights stands were coming apart. Light bulbs didn’t work in kitchen under cabinets. The sinks filled up with water fast and had a slow drain. The couches in main room were well beyond use by date. Tv in bedroom didn’t work. Some bedrooms didn’t have a tv at all. Remotes didn’t have batteries in some. There was not a outside shower or hose to use to clean off any sand or saltwater. Mosquitos were really bad during our stay as well. The air condition did work well and kept us cool during our stay. The overall condition of this property is poor and needs an updating with better upkeep.
Could not use lower portion of property to grill or eat due to SEWER WATER FLOWING ONTO PATIO DAILY. The stench of sewer water was intolerable.
Will not ever return or recommend this property.
Family gathering was awesome. Everything was clean and the space was great for our family. The only problem was the door knob was hard to operate.

Perfect location but house needs TLC
The views and location were amazing! The house however needs a lot of TLC! The toilets were from 1980 and were literally about 10 inches off the ground; the dining table only sat 6 people and of that 1 of the chairs was broken; the dryer does not work; it would have been nice to have an outdoor shower instead of a hose that only turned on when it was all the way to hot (burning your skin); and the house was just really run down! Peeling paint, filthy stained toilets, crappy appliances and just a general lack of effort put into maintaining this house. I would not have really said anything but at almost $1500 a night to stay there between fees and cleaning, this house should have been WAY better taken care of! With that said, it WAS all clean, bed sheets were clean and soft and it did not smell. Lots of space to run around and great views…. Just wish they put a little more love into maintaining this home!
