Clean home and a very nice stay
We had a very nice stay. The home was clean and had everything we needed. The ping pong table in the garage was a nice surprise that our grandson loved playing after coming in off the beach. It has nice deck areas to lounge on. I would recommend this home.

Great Stay!
Everything from check-in to departure was an absolute pleasure! I was extremely pleased with the house, the cleanliness of everything and the hospitality given! Hunter was the best host ever!! 10/10 recommend, you will not be disappointed!!
It was a blessing on how close the house was to the beach. It is a perfect place for a family of all ages. We felt safe. The management company was prompt with any concerns or questions. To our surprise, our deposit was returned the same day of departure.

We stayed at the Salted Rim for a few nights in late August! As an inaugural customer, we thoroughly enjoyed the stay in the comfort of the Salted Rim. We found the home well appointed, close to the beach and extremely comfortable!

Incredible Attention to Detail
This was an incredibly beautiful home with fabulous energy. The photos do not do it justice. It was so much more beautiful and so much more fabulous. I was so grateful to Hunter for being such a wonderful host. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with my family. It made our stay even more enjoyable.

Amazing Views
The views were amazing. I could look off the bedrooms’ private balcony and watch the sunrise or the main deck and watch the sunset. Only a 3-4 minute walk to the beach and a 5 minute drive to restaurants, grocery store, and trinket shops. Kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed. Basic necessities from description was provided, as well as a cute welcome basket. Beach accessories that were provided were awesome! My granddaughters loved the sand toys and kite and I loved the wagon to wheel it back and forth to the beach. Ping pong and other amenities were nice to use during the day. Make sure you do note that there is a separate studio apartment attached in the first floor of home, in case privacy is important. Hunter was very kind in his communication with me and responsive when I had questions.
This house features a separate, bottom floor efficiency. During the peak season (Memorial Day - Labor Day), the bottom floor is included with the house rental making it a 4 bedroom. During the off season, the efficiency rents out separate so can be added if additional space is needed. This home offers beautiful ocean views, as well as views of the ICW. The beach access is just a 2-minute walk away, making it the ideal space for your beach vacation!
