The stay was pretty perfect:) Rented both units with family and it was a great set up. Both units very clean and had everything you could need and more. The garages were stocked with all beach amenities--bikes were a hit! The owner, June, was so helpful. Responded within minutes to every question I had, making the check in process easy. The pool was so nice. Having two separate areas was so nice for the teens:) Will stay again!!

Great property, great owners.

The property was far and away the best-appointed beach house that we've ever rented (of 10+). The owners were on point with all communications and easy to work with. We definitely look forward to staying at 'A Lazy River Day & Night' again.

Great House for Two Families

We had an incredible stay at the Lazy River House. The house is a duplex which is absolutely perfect because we had one side and our friends had the other. The owners go above and beyond to provide you with what you need in order to enjoy your vacation.

What a great place! We rented the whole duplex, perfect location, quiet road, enjoyed having the bikes, plenty of pool items, floats, cozy outside furniture, etc. This house was more stocked with essentials than any other place I've stayed.

Nicely decorated and only a 5 minute walk to the beach. Just over half a mile walk to Ginny and Jane E's and Pine street is just past that. Location is great!!! Pool is awesome too!

Great Condo and location

We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary here with another couple. The duplex with the adjoining door was perfect for us. We loved the private pool - felt very tropical. We were able to sit under the condo each night in the comfy outdoor furniture. Great location to beach and restaurants. We would definitely love to come back to this condo! It had every amenity you could think of to make us feel at home.

The weather Was excellent in January!!

The property was perfect for our family. My husband and I stayed on one side and my son , daughter and her boyfriend stayed on the other side. We loved the lazy River pool !! The beach was just a short walk and they have you covered for anything you might need for the beach. My only complaint it was too short !!

Christmas in July

This property was the the perfect place and location for our family gathering, some whom we haven't seen in over a year and a half. We enjoyed the outdoor facilities, especially the pool and out door showers. Having both sides of the property made it very easy for us to plan meals for 8! We also appreciated having such close access to the beach and trolley stop. The management was very responsive to our needs. would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here with family and had kids and a 1 year old. There were so many things there for us that made our trip so much less stressful and easy! They had toddler cups, pack and play, baby monitor, high chair , floaties , coolers & chairs for the beach. We didn’t expect all of the items they had but it made our trip so much better. The lazy River / pool was awesome. The kids enjoyed and the host was nice and accommodating.

Perfect family vacation

The Lazy River was a perfect spot for my family and my friend’s family to stay together! We were able to vacation together but have our own space. The pool was a perfect size, warm, and always had some shaded areas for our littles to play but stay out of the sun! We spent most of our time at the beach or at the house in the pool and outside living areas. We enjoyed the beach supplies at the house and bicycles supplied. Holmes beach was our fav and loved that it was a short walk from the house! The beds were cozy. The house was very clean! The outside showers were amazing to clean up in after a day in the sun. We were very impressed with the availability of supplies for our babies they had at the house. It was so welcoming and would recommend it to any of our friends or family!

Fantastic Home in Paradise

Charming clean property with a great location walkable to the beach. Our kids loved the pool and the unique lazy river! Hours of fun and the colorful pool lights at night created a great ambiance. The owner is a real gem and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Her communication was prompt and thorough. Extremely accommodating and the house was full of conveniences like life jackets, coolers, pool/beach toys, umbrellas, beach chairs, beach wagons and more. Can’t recommend this property enough.
