The house is very nice, the decor was perfect for it was called Turtle Bay, back yard was a good size, only thing there were some ant hills. The house and yard are kept up really nice, inside was clean. I would rent the property again.

Overall clean, definitely smelled of plug ins or room spray which was a little tough for me since I have a fragrance allergy. I do think perhaps pets had stayed right before us or perhaps live here at times, as there was a chewy box that arrived during our stay and I also was experiencing some allergy symptoms I typically get from animals. Overall great location and yard space.

The house was perfect for relaxing and cooking/grilling at the end of the day. The location was convenient for Parris Island and the area had plenty of restaurants, coffee shops and shopping. It was close enough to visit the beach on Hunting Island as well.

The host was very welcoming. We loved the inviting sign letting everyone know we were visiting to pick up our new Marine! We also enjoyed the pass to Hunt Island State Park and got to enjoy walking the beach in January. (That’s a first) would highly recommend especially for those traveling to see their Marines graduate!
