Cute but needs updating

The house itself was clean and in a great location. It could use some updates to the floor especially. We arrived on a Tuesday night after hour and were not able to get the mini splits to work. It was 70 degrees. We were able to sleep with box fans. The next day we called the management company. They sent Crystal out and she was not able to get them to work so she called Manfield heat and air. He main unit outside needed a new board for them to work. He would not be able to get it fixed during our stay and said he would report it to the management company. The temperature then drooped to 45 to 50. We did not have any heat. We reported this via towards the end of our stay and did not receive a response. We then reported it again after our stay. The management company was very rude and said they couldn't do anything about it. We were not offered any compensation. Long Story short don't rent through this management company.

Great location with everything needed.

A Carolina Dream is a quaint bungalow in the perfect location with all the amenities needed for a beach stay. Just a block from the beach but still walking distance to groceries, shopping and restaurants. Complaints about the unit being "run down" are overblown. The unit was clean and in good condition. Yes, there are a few soft spots in the floor but none so severe they needed to be painted yellow (if you know, you know). Don't hesitate to stay - especially with your furry friends. This is one of the few rentals that include the pet fee.

Great location, but property was ‘limited’

The location was excellent..period. The beds were updated, which was nice as well. Beyond that - this is an older property that doesn’t match the pictures. North side of the property has a lot of mold on the outside of the house, and it just had the appearance of minimal updates we’re done to the home. Stove(electric) didn’t wok well at all, toaster was broken… screens were broke on the porch that let ALOT of mosquitoes in, and the whole house just needs a facelift. Again - location was excellent - but amenities left a little to be desired. I wish I had looked at the most recent reviews.

Not as pictured or description in listing

Floors felt like you were going to fall through. Floors were buckled and you could trip in them. Carpet in family room covering a huge problem with flooring. Musty smelling. Outside lights didn’t work. House had holes in it inside and out. Bathroom floor so mushy you could fall through. Absolutely nothing like the description other than colors of rooms. The house needs major repairs. DO NOT RENT or waste your money. I have pictures but could not upload.
