6/10 – Acceptable

Points faibles : Propreté
Beautiful community and quick owner response, but house needs maintenance and is overpriced!
We've done beach vacations all over the Charleston area for many years. This was the first time (and last) in the "Forgotten Coast" area.
PROS: The gated community is well-maintained, beautiful, quiet w/ miles of walking and biking trails, and very, very few people at the beach (at least this time of year).
The owner responded very swiftly to our initial problems, though at some point we gave up, simply because we didn't want to waste our vacation texting about the house.
CONS: Due to recent hurricanes started off w/ broken outdoor firepit and partially repaired drywall sections from small leaks - totally understandable.
However, we also arrived to disconnected TV cables broken Roku remotes (owner quickly replaced), damaged outdoor DSL cable (apparently it just runs above ground across the neighbor's gravel driveway),
missing lightbulbs in several rooms, a leaking sink faucet, a leak under the kitchen sink, a leaking toilet, very loud AC in the master bedroom (fan can't be turned off), partially clogged shower drain ( and cracks in the shower floor that may soon leak to more water damage), an ill-equipped kitchen w/ a total of 6 forks (home sleeps 6?) and 1 sad wine glass.
There is really not a whole lot to do in the area, especially when you can't go swimming on the many red-flag days or because of unsafe levels of bacteria in the water.
We found the house overpriced compared to other beach homes in better locations and because of the poor maintenance level.
