This is our second stay here at Family Matters. The location is an A plus! The new walkway to the beach is great and we thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all our meals (too many of us to go out!) We made some great memories with our 4 children, their spouses and our 8 grandchildren.
Very well equipped house from anything needed in the kitchen to anything needed at the pool/beach. And not to mention for baby! Lots of memories made this past week. Hope to be back!!

Thank you Rebecca for the review! We are so glad you had a great vacation and hope to have you as our guests again soon!
Family Matters is a cozy and beautiful home with all the amenities you need on a vacation with a large group. The balcony provides a gorgeous view of the beach and it is a quick walk across the private access bridge to the sand. The pool and hot tub offer a great way to relax when the sand gets too hot. A beautiful trip to paradise!

Thank you Jessica for the review! We agree, Family Matters is our paradise for sure! We hope to have you as our guests again soon!
The house was clean , the kitchen was well stocked, lots of dishes, etc, but does need a shrimp boil deep pot. Beds were clean, but no extra blankets in closet and mattress cover and fitted sheets came off the mattress every night. Perhaps deeper sheets would help.Eric was very accessible by text, and gave answers quickly.Our family had a lovely stay and enjoyed it very much!
We stayed with 15 of us eight adults and seven children nine years and under. It was an awesome vacation vacation. We started at the beach each day then went to the pool/hot tub. The kids loved all the possibilities of where they could play furniture could use some updating, but knowing more than 15 people rent it was fine for us
We choose this house because of its location on the beach, outside amenities and size. Most things were as pictured and described. The host were great in working with us on our check in time. Since our main objective in vacation was to spend time with our grown children and our grandchildren we chose Family Matters. All in all we had a great vacation!!

Thank you Grisselle for the review! So glad you had a nice stay and loved the house, location and responsive host! :) Would love to have you as our guest again soon!
Houses are very close together, for privacy reasons I would recommend a curtain or shade of some sort for sides on porch over looking ocean to provide more privacy. House was excellent for our needs, very clean and plenty of room,we had 10 people
Family Matters was a great place for our family trip of 8 (6 adults, 2 kids). Check in could not have been easier with all details provided before our arrival. The quick walk to the beach was perfect for the mornings, and the pool quickly became our afternoon hangout spot. We enjoyed the view from the porch which was larger than expected. The house was clean and the kitchen is well supplied for preparing family meals. Overall the house was as advertised although we wish it had been more clear that both master bedrooms were upstairs. Eric is a very responsive host - all in all, it was a wonderful stay!

This property worked out very well for our extended family gathering of 10 people. It has a great location right on the beach. The pool works well as a change of pace from the ocean waves too.

The house was perfect for our family vacation. Spacious, clean and comfortable. The pool was great.
The best thing about the house was the porch overlooking the ocean. It was a great gathering place for fun and conversations.

Family Matters is a great name for it. Great for all ages. Loved view of beach and easy access to beach. Pool was great and 5 bed rooms plus bunk beds in hall was perfect for our group of 14.

Howard, thank you for this kind review- each off season we work so hard to ensure Family Matters gets better and better to beat out the competition, I’m so happy to hear we’ve accomplished that! We hope to have you as our guests again soon! :)
Our family enjoyed our stay at "Family Matters". Our host was quick to answer any questions before we arrived and was very accommodating. The house was great. Having the pool and private walkway to beach was the best.

About the host
Hosted by Eric Graf
My wife and I love to travel (20 countries & counting), spoil our Pug Kiki, & watch HGTV together, so it is only fitting that we bought Family Matters in April 2019, so we could put our obsession with “How close can you Beach” to rest! Our favorite travels were always beautiful beaches (originally from Ohio & North Carolina, we even got married on the beach in Myrtle Beach, SC), and we fell in love with Surfside Beach, as you get the best of both worlds – close to the city with tons to do, but also remote enough for uncrowded beaches and a place to rest & recharge with beautiful ocean views & sunrises. We are so happy to be able to share our home, Family Matters, with you and hope you enjoy your stay here and make many memories with your loved ones to take back home with you!
What makes this property unique
Beautiful ocean views from the deck, bedroom windows, living room, & boardwalk to the beach. Spacious home, with an open floor plan, lots of natural light, and well cared for by both current and previous owners. Perfect location as just a short walk to restaurants and shops, but also remote enough to enjoy privacy with a private heated pool and only steps away from a beautiful beach!
