About this property

397 Steps To The Beach; Quiet, Private Residential Pet-Friendly Home

The home is located on a sizable wooded lot in a quiet, residential area just a short stroll from the beach. It can comfortably sleep 8-10 people and features 2 BRs with queen beds and walk-in closets that can accommodate a port-a crib or mini-crib (both available for use), and a 3rd BR with a futon bed. The Carolina room off the dining area offers a queen-sized pullout couch. The living room couches are also queen and full-size sleeper sofa beds.
The kitchen is fully stocked with cooking utensils and appliances. The open floor plan in the dining and living room areas enhance the relaxed, informal atmosphere of the home.
The patio area and gardens outside the house are home to many bird species and other native wildlife. There is a gas grill available for outdoor cooking and a kennel for dogs (prior agreement required).
This is a residential area so the beach around the corner is not crowded. The location provides a great place to relax and enjoy the beach and other amenities around the area, most of which are a short drive from the house.

Little get away

We had a great stay at the property as always. Everything we needed was provided. This year we traveled with our 1 year old and the house had everything she needed. It helped with bringing extra supplies as toys, crib, high chair are all already there. Thanks Sam and Bobby!

Home Away From Home

It was our first Family Vacation where my wife and I had all our adult childern and my grandchild. Could not have asked for a better place to accomodate us all. Steps to the Beach was an absolute gem! Aside from getting hit with Tropical Storm Debby, we had a great time. While we were indorrs for a few days out of that week, board games kept us laughing and telling stories. Thank you!

Nice place, horrible ‘customer service’

Two and a half days into our 5 night 6 day stay, the AC completely stopped working. When I called the provided number, it was the property owner’s daughter. She advised me they discovered an issue with the AC and was ‘hoping it would last through your stay’. When I asked why we weren’t alerted beforehand, she said ‘they didn’t know it would be a problem until it was a problem’. I was then assured the needed part would be in the next day and she and the AC technician would be there starting at 10am. So my family and I head out for the day, only to be called 2 hours later to be told the AC would not be fixed for the duration of our stay. They (daughter) said they would come install window units while my family was gone so we could resume our vacation. We get home at 4pm, as I told the daughter, and no window units. I called her to let her know it is now 88 degrees inside the house, and see where the promised window units are. She then scolded me like a child and told me she was doing her best and it was a hectic day because it was her kid’s last day of school. So she tells me she is pulling up to the property with the window units. Minutes later. She sends her husband to the door to talk to me. He says they want to install the units now and wanted to send us for ice cream. I told him that was supposed to be done hours ago while we were gone, not while my children are showering. She again got nasty with me. No solution. 88 degrees. They fixed it with box fans…

Just as advertised, Just what we needed.

Location to the beach was as the name stated . Could not have asked for a better location. Easy walk to beach, even with our 2 furbabies. The house had all the comforts of home and more. The covered parking , fools ball table, and the gardens were delightful. Having the dishwasher, laundty detergent, papertowels was a nice extra.Will diffently rent again.

Fabulous!

It was so much better than the pictures. It was clean, comfy, and had everything and more. If I’d known how much they provided, I could’ve left my roof rack at home! It was the best place I’ve stayed in a long time and would love to make it a regular. We appreciate everything that was provided and the neighborhood was perfect for a family of all ages. I totally recommend this place to all!!

VERY NICE!

The driveway accommodated my truck and my motorcycle trailer as well. The house was clean and tidy as advertised. The location of the house made the beach a short walk. The AC/Heat pump worked well because the temperature fluctuated each day and night, that was a big plus. All in all it was a good comfortable stay.

About the host

Hosted by Bobby Kennedy

Host profile image
We live in New York State with our 2 large dogs and have been working in the healthcare industry for over 30 years. We have always enjoyed taking family vacations near the beach to spend quality time relaxing with friends and family. We welcome you to our home and hope you enjoy the same pleasures we treasure when you decide to book your vacation in our beach home--397 Steps to the Beach.
Relax and enjoy. -- Bob and Nancy

Why they chose this property

When one of our daughters moved into the area, we decided to make this our home away from home too. We are happy to share our home with others and feel it is located in an ideal spot for vacationing and relaxing at the beach.

What makes this property unique

We loved the location immediately when we found this house. North Myrtle Beach holds so many fun things to do, no matter the time of year or weather. Activities of every sort are easily accessible from the property.
We were initially drawn to house because of the landscaping and peaceful sitting area found in the yard. The house also sits on a double lot, unlike the homes surrounding our property, which makes it feel more private and tranquil. To pay homage to the original owner, who was a well-known golf course designer, the house features some of his original touches, such as the golfer plaque hanging on the front porch.
We have made it a priority to make our home feel like YOUR home.
