Misrepresented online

The house is in poor condition and repair. There are trash bags and junk in the closets, one of the closets' doors was broken and laying on the wall, the bottom floor smells strongly of mold, the upstairs kitchen is in disrepair, there was a dead roach in one of the upstairs bedrooms, the beds had NO cover---just naked mattresses , there were rusty bikes with flat tires available for guests to "enjoy", the area next to the pool was junky and moldy, the laundry area was in disrepair and smelled strongly of mold...I could go on, but I think you get the impression. I will NEVER book with VRBO again. When I tried to report the problem to VRBO, the process was VERY cumbersome. Never again, and I'll tell all my friends. VRBO is terrible.

Family Time

Our stay was very comfortable and we enjoyed the location. All concerns were addressed and Derek the husband and owner was very professional. The listing had an amenity that was not available and we were not told in advance. Therefore we had no time to explore another accommodation. Amy, the wife and owner was very impatient with talking to me and reminded me over and over again that a fee was not charged. I felt very disrespected as if I’m not clear on contractual terms. I sent a message of thanks and not once replied to with a “you’re welcome “ or “hello”. We loved the home but felt we were not entirely welcomed. Thank you for accepting the reservation.

The pool and hot tub for the WIN

Thank you for a fun-filled vacation for our kids and grandkids. Memories were made to last a lifetime! Relaxing by the pool and in the hot tub was the overall huge win for our entire family, especially the grandkids! Though we didn’t take the golf cart out, that was a super gracious amenity. Thank you again!

Beware of mosquitoes!

Shower curtain upstairs was moldy, soap was watered down in dispensers and there were stains on a bed. Needed to text host to turn on hot tub and got eaten alive by mosquitoes the first night. Golf cart fit 5 people so we had to make 2 trips if we didn’t want drive and to pay to park in town. Lots of good restaurants and nice beach.

The Family Beach House

We had a great time at the Sumter Beach House. We had adults, teens and children and everyone had an awesome week. The pool was a tremendous plus, and the place was spacious enough for four family units. The hosts were easily accessible but not invasive. We all agreed we could come back again

Wonderful Vacation

Love at first site. This is a great house. 3 Bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms upstairs and 2 Bedrooms and a full bathroom off of a bedroom downstairs. The house was great for our family plenty of space. The pool and hot tub are amazing. The owner is very fast to respond to texts and willing to listen to any concerns. The golf cart is a great bonus as you can drive that to the beach access and park for free. Anyone will love this house. Pack your sheets and blankets the house has plenty of towels. If you need to do laundry the washer and dryer are great. You are centrally located. Go to Carolina Beach, Kure beach, Fort Fisher, the aquarium, and take the ferry to Southport that makes a great day trip and it's only $7.00 per car load. Great trip came home very relaxed.

Fab Family week

This is our 2nd time staying here. We lucked into a cancellation last year and fell in love with the area and house! The house has space to spread out and is very nice, however the outside area is the star! An amazing pool with plenty of space. Convenient location and our teen grandkids loved riding bikes in the neighborhood and park. Close to town and the beaches. Great communication with the host/ management team. We will definitely be back!!

St Patty's Day Run Family

Thought the house was good in March of 2023, but believed there could have been a few small items that could have been attended to. These small items were attended to for our March of 2024 and the house exceeded all of our expectations and we had a great time. The family comes down for the Steven Haydu run each year and this house works perfect. The Polar Plunge is the best! Thank you for providing the perfect house for our family get together!!!

Carolina stay

We were not impressed by the house..when we got there we found dog poop from a large dog in the grass area around the pool. The bikes couldn't be used they were rusty and had flat tires. Went to turn on the cart and it needed to be completely charged and then once charged it didn't last long at all. Inside the laundry area had pipes exposed, lucky we didn't have toddlers. The oven door on the second floor was broken. Most of the furniture was wobbly when you sat on it and the carpet in the hallwall downstairs is a hazard, I almost tripped twice with my cane.

Had a blast!

This was our second time at Amy’s. The location is great a quick golf cart ride to the beach and even quicker to the park. We love the pool! Amy is extremely hospitable and kind. My son even left his vr headset and she called me to let me know. Thankfully we hadn’t gotten to far from town. A great house for families! Thank you Amy.

Unexpected surprises

After our original booking elsewhere got cancelled at the last minute, we lucked into finding this listing which had just received a cancellation for the week we were looking for. It was a great blessing…an extra bedroom, bath and larger pool. 1st visit to Carolina Beach but definitely not our last. Fantastic house, pool/yard & location. Set up is great, having upstairs & downstairs kitchen and living spaces. Golf cart was an unexpected bonus. Quick response to questions and clear instructions. There’s a good variety of activities around -we enjoyed them but looked forward to returning to the house and pool! We are already planning on a return trip!

Great Beach House for our Family with Kids

We really enjoyed staying at the Family Beach House. It had everything we needed and accommodated us perfectly. The pool was a great place for the kids and the adults to hang out. It was great having two kitchens and 2 separate living spaces as well. Would definitely recommend and would book here again.
