Charming house near the beach

Lovely, lush property with screened in porch upstairs and sitting area downstairs. The outdoor shower and bathroom was an amazing perk and I loved being able to clean up and rinse off prior to heading back in the house. Beach access was convenient and a quick walk over. Our kids slept comfortably and well. The bunk beds were awesome!! The room by the screened in porch had a bed that was quite rigid. I didn’t get much shut eye but the experience and surrounding of being there was enjoyable. Would consider renting again.

Great location, privacy. Clean, very much like an old but well maintained beach house just a easy walk away to the beach. The beach was never crowded. Most people are down closer to the other end of the island or they are in Wild Dunes. This location is better for those who want some distance from the crowd

Dirtiest House Ever

The photos made the property look much better than it really was. Upon checking in we thought the house was not really clean! We used the kitchen several times. The burners on the stove did not work great, the dishwasher did not clean the dishes the first time ( had to rerun), placements in drawer were soaking wet so could not use, a lot of pans and utensils were not clean, the grill on bottom of fridge kept falling off, the grill above stove kept falling off, the garbage cans were completely full when we arrived, the bedrooms were nit well lit. Truthfully everything was OLD and in need of replacement, really si dirty it was not worth the rental. The screened porch had not been cleaned in a long time. Cushions and porch so nasty we could not sit out there. House was a HUGE disappointment for 4 adults. Would have to think again before using Carroll Realty

Under the Live Oaks!

If you appreciate beautiful landscaping; it's the first thing you see as you pull into the driveway. We were blown away by it! The house is a renovated old beach cottage and, it's beautiful! The interior is bright and charming; it's shabby chic with bright artwork. We had a great stay and we'll be back!

Birthday getaway

We had a great time. The home was in a great quiet location. Everything that was needed was provided. The only negative was the mattress in the bedroom next to the porch. This was the hardest and squeakiest mattress I have ever slept on. Other than that, the stay was great.

Cozy house with everything you need. Great location, easy walk to the beach.

I thought the house might be dark inside with all the trees but there was lots of sunlight. The house was cozy with everything you need in the kitchen. Easy walk to the beach, house located at end of dead end street- great location. It was a little chilly to hang outside but both porches would be great on warm days.

Great location!

The house is older and has a few issues. Living room furniture uncomfortable, the TV is too small for the space. The tv in the bedroom wouldn't change channel. Pillows flat and the blinds aren't dark enough for sleeping in. The bathroom under the house is a bit much for access. Convenient short walk to the beach. Loved the shaded lot and the screened porch.

Isle of Palms Bungalow

The property we rented at IOP has a beautiful, well cared for yard. The outside areas are nice, as well as the wonderful screened in porch. It reminds me of an old bungalow. However - The cleanliness was so disappointing. The bathroom has mildew around the tub and the tube mat is mildewed as well. There was mildew on the bathroom ceiling and on the baseboards by the bathroom door. The air filter vents are filthy and need to be cleaned. Since the coast is a naturally moist/humid place it would seem that taking care of mildew issues would part of the regular cleaning. The mattress pads were stained, dirty and disgusting. (Of course I didn't see that until I stripped the beds before checkout, after having slept on that all week!) The bed coverings need to be laundered as well, not just the linens and towels. These cleaning issues should be part of a regular routine after each guests' stay, especially during these times of COVID.

Summer beach vacation

The house was really nice. We loved the screened in porch and treehouse feel, and being a couple blocks from the beach was great. We booked this rental in large part because it came with a credit for beach rentals, but I found out after we checked in that you had to reserve those rentals in advance, so that was a $250 loss. Those emails went to my junk box. Also, we arrived after dark and the house was completely dark and difficult to find in the trees. We were able to feel our way to the front door, but I would be sure to ask the rental company to leave.on a light. There is parking, but the neighbors kept using it, including the day we arrived, so I would also suggest better policing of the parking spots.

Cute secluded cottage steps from the beach

This cute cottage has everything a family needs for a fun getaway. House was comfortable and well-appointed. Second bathroom on the ground level was good for post-beach showers. Best part was the huge porch and the shaded, secluded setting.

Classic Carolina Cottage

I loved the porch, especially the hammock, and spent most of my time there. The yard was beautiful with all the trees. The house is older and the bedrooms are small but clean. The downstairs bathroom needs some work. The beach path is just around the corner. There is nowhere to leave a bike if you rent one and it’s too narrow for a cart. Don’t rent a cart and umbrella just bring one you can carry. The only issue was the overflowing garbage cans from the previous guests when I arrived. The manager came the next day to pick up what was on the ground but left the overflowing smelling cans for two more days until the city garbage pickup.

Cute and cozy cottage in great location

Loved the house and the location. However was very disappointed that the washer didn’t work bc it was filled with rocks and sand and that the coffee maker was filled with mold. If those 2 things could be fixed it would have been a perfect rental.

Cute but Dingy

The house was in a good location, beach access was just a short walk away but the house needed a good cleaning. When we arrived the downstairs bathroom had not been cleaned and the upstairs while neat still was a little gritty, The floors had not been swept very well and furniture had not been cleaned off (kids snack food was still on the living room table). They are in dire need of a new cleaning service!! Also you could not stand to be outside as the mosquitos were terrible so the outside living space was not of much use. They were even in the downstairs bathroom which made showering there a real challenge. I don't think I would ever stay there again

The cottage was very cozy and inviting.

Very disappointed though. The air conditioning didnt not cool off so it was hot during the day. For 2 days the alarm went on and off consistently during the day and night. My son called the police finally. They had it stopped but then it stsrted up again until someone came out to fix it. Stopped by Carroll Realty and told them (besides calling). The man i spoke to didnt give me warm fuzzies. The area is beautiful . We needed to have a quiet relaxing vacation.

Great location!

Really enjoyed the easy access to the beach! Overall, the house is in good shape, but the cloth furniture and bed spreads could use a thorough/deep cleaning. We did not use the bathroom downstairs. However, I purchased some bleach and removed the mold from the shower curtain liner in the bath upstairs. I would use this home again, since it was in our budget. Thanks.

Cute but needs updating and thorough cleaning

It's a cute house and close to the beach but there were some areas in the house that needed to be fixed and updated, mainly the kitchen and bathroom. The couch was dirty and needed to be cleaned and the shower curtain in the bathroom had mold on it. We are not ones to really complain about the places we stay, but those were a few obvious things we noticed. We were able to look past those issues and enjoy our stay.

Comfy, Classic Beach Cottage

The four of us stayed in this well-done little beach house that exceeded our expectations from the start. Its an easy block from the beach, a 5 minute walk maybe, and located approximately in the center of IOP, so its very convenient and within walking distance to the marina area with restaurants, water sports, etc. Even though it didn't have actual views of the ocean, its perch in the live oaks offers plenty of cozy, coastal ambiance. The interior touches were nice. The collection of figure drawings signed by an artist named Bjork inspired some engaging discussion. Easy wireless access, cable TV, etc. Out on the porch, the dining table and hammock, were great. Some of the other outdoor furniture was a little tattered... as outdoor furniture should be at a beach cottage I suppose. Sleeping wise, our mattresses were underwhelming but acceptable. I'd definitely suggest some ceiling fans in the bedrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed regarding cookware and dishes. Big, nice butcher-block cutting board with juice-groove and everything. However, I'd advise visitors to supply all of your own disposables. Often, beach rentals have left-over pantry goodies; aluminum foil, skewers, odd bits of tupperware, etc left from past guests. Carroll Realty, who was very laid-back and easy to work with, requests that guests pack everything out for tidiness. Probably a good call. So bring your own corn holders and ziplocks. In conclusion, we may even try to stay here again next year.
