We enjoyed our stay at your property. It was very clean and it had everything we needed. We will definitely consider this property again if we go to Surfside Beach again.
We had a great time staying for holiday weekend.
The house was very clean and had everything we needed.
The owner was kindly to check if we needed help with anything during our stay.
The property and experience of memories was wonderful! Will definitely be staying there again! Beautiful place and in the right location near everything!
The house was perfect for our getaway and the hosts very responsive. The house is a short 5 minute walk to the beach and very clean. There were plenty of rooms and beds for all 10 of us. Would recommend for any family looking for a quiet getaway.
One of the best houses we have rented: beautiful, full of extras--great communication with owner!
This was a great decision to stay here for a few days with basically immediate family, the name indicates, coastal distancing.
Loved the Belgian waffles, even with 2 days of raining, followed by one freezing night, we had a blast.
One of the very best places we have rented!

Thank you so much for being our first official VBRO guests! Happy to hear that your family enjoyed our home and we look forward to having your family,
We rent a beach house every year now that most of the kids are grown. This has been the best experience so far! The location is perfect, house is well maintained, and the owners checked in on us to make sure everything was going well. I will definitely stay here again!
This is the 2nd time we've stayed here. Communication with property owners was great, the house was very clean which is why we like to stay there. Close enough to the beach without having to be right on it with all the crowds, so it was a nice and quiet weekend.
We had an amazing time. Everything that was mentioned to us prior to the stay was definitely there and more. The house was very nice and clean. We felt very welcome.
Tiffany is so awesome. Such a beautiful house with tons of space. Our whole group was very comfortable and we had everything we needed to cook and spend a whole weekend on the beach. Will definitely be returning.
