Great family vacation home
We had a set of grand parents, plus three couples, and 6 children ages 2-15. I think we all had a blast. The pool was great. Distance to the beach was walkable. The kitchen/main floor was a great hang out place for the family with decent private rooms below. Just don’t walk heavy during quiet hours. Notable things: we had an issue with a chair and the refrigerator. Management showed up within an hour! And fixed our problems. Also, they told us there was no pack-n-play, but we found three in the closets(?) Further they told us there was no wagon or beach chairs, but there was a wagon and 8-9 beach chairs. Not at all disappointed by this, but we did bring extra gear unnecessarily. Would definitely rent for a family vacation again.

None Working HVAC System
We arrived to our vacation house, which was too hot and had little noisy window units running but not the HVAC system! I discovered Booksmart, the property manager, had emailed, while we were in route, to tell us HVAC was out. I contacted them immediately and said house was too hot and not every bedroom had a/c. They sent a service to install two more small window units in bedrooms with none. They assured me they were working to get the system fixed quickly. On Monday I contacted BS again and received the same assurance. On Tuesday BS said a HVAC tech was on the way! A 1 hour a/c service showed up. The tech said he was sent to make sure the right part had been ordered and didn’t fix anything! Couldn’t say when the part would come. Long story short, a tech came at 4:00pm on Friday, our last evening, wanting to fix the unit which would take some time. We had just returned from the beach and were getting ready to start dinner. Access to the HVAC system was in the kitchen at the top of the stairs leading in so blocking access in. We refused the service. We had already spent our entire vacation in uncomfortably warm house no point ruining our last evening waiting to cook! Other issues: appliances not working properly, very dirty floors and sandy sheets, no gas grill, citation from HOA for golf cart and trailer not addressed in house rules, dangerous top deck. Booksmart promised us a credit for inconveniences. Not even 1/7 of our fee. Never using BS or the house again!!!

Bday family vacation
The property owners always responded to any questions and answered honestly (thats big for me). They are great hostess! The home was great. The pool wasnt open yet but the jacuzzi was available and cut on before we arrived (thank you). They had a short path to the beach which was a great walk with the family and the view of the water and homes once you walk up the steps was great! The only thing I wish I knew was the kitchen was on the 3rd floor because I had 2 family members that we had to assist to get up there. We did what we had to do with minimal complaints!

Great Place to Get Away
The home was as advertised. The home was clean and comfortable. The host was very responsive to messages sent in the VRBO app. We had a large group and everyone had plenty of space to relax. The beach is a quick walk away. The hot tub was nice. The pool was closed. Harris Teeter was the closest grocery store and there were a few restaurants nearby as well. Would definitely stay here again.

My graduation weekend party
It was absolutely amazing and we had a great time. The house was a short walk to a magical oceanfront over the dunes. We had 12 people in the home and it was comfortable and roomy enough that everyone had a great time and are talking about making this an annual get together.

Great house and great location!
We were celebrating our daughter’s 30th Birthday and surprised her by kidnapping her and some best friends! Great house but had issues from the get-go: I had messaged host way before our weekend to make sure that gas grill was ready to go with a full tank propane because we were arriving late and grilling dinner that night. Guess what? At 8:15pm when we arrived, we found that gas grill was empty! (This happened to us at another VRBO property in Waynesville, NC). I messaged host but didn’t hear back til’ next day. There was a charcoal grill but we had to dash to store to pick some up before they closed at 9pm (off-season hours). Then found coffee pot 1/2 full and mold growing inside, as well as an unidentified object on kitchen floor. Turns out to be a smashed grape; sounds harmless right? However not so harmless for our 2 dogs! Thank goodness we found it before the dogs did! There was a brand new roll of paper towels on the holder in the kitchen. I thought that’s great until I realized how dirty the holder was: so much dust that it became like lint and very hard to clean; I gave up and used our own paper towels. We also found broken glass on the pool deck!??? Unacceptable! Thank goodness nobody walked barefoot down there! Though we loved the house, I am still disappointed that the house wasn’t ready for guests, especially when I had requested that they make sure that the gas grill be ready to use Friday evening! We weren’t going to use it in Saturday bec we were going out
