    I We left a day early due to the stress on the hotel restrictions.
    Room was clean. Close to the beach
    Poor communication from staff. The only person who was helpful was Dawn and unfortunately we did not meet her until the day we were checking out. We did not receive any information regarding where things were services available. Ect They were kind and refunded me for the night I did not stay. We checked out early. They made things right. Thank you Dawn

    This was our 2nd time staying here. This propertys location is so nice. Walks away from the cute little neighborhood beach. We liked that we had a kitchen to cook in and really enjoyed having a patio to ourselves. Staff has always been kind each time.
    Unfortunately, if you stay in the townhouse one, and it happens to be a hot day in SC, it will be very very stuffy. We unfortunately were in SC on a very hot weekend in October, and it was very hard to sleep through the night due to the heat. Another thing I noticed was that there was a constant rustic smell in the restroom. It was very mild but still, a bit bothersome.

    Pros: - The location is great, its literally 1 min away from the beach. Traveling with kids its very convenient to quickly bring them back into the room after the beach and rinse. - Fully equipped kitchen and BBQ. This time we rented a cottage with our own private "backyard", so we grilled all of our food. - The place is nice and quiet. Even though the hotel was fully booked for the weekend we were there and there were families in every cottage, the place has nice and relaxing atmosphere and very quiet (bonus with two little children who go to bed early).
    Cons: - 4pm is VERY late for a check-in. But the time you settled its pretty much late evening and then that "day" at the resort is just a waste of money. - Cleaning in the rooms is very irregular. This was our second time staying in this lodge, and out of 8 days in total we spent there our room never got cleaned, even though we left the sign on the door daily between 9am and 1pm asking it to be cleaned. I think in general, the hotel is missing cleaning and maintenance crew. The doors, nobs, window latches, appliances (our dishwasher was probably from 1990 and sounded like a rocket at takeoff...). The rooms definitely can be upgraded. The rooms are clean-ish, but dusty and have old carpets. However, you really can not beat the location and having your own kitchen in the room.

    The inn is a short walk to the beach, visible from the property. The staff we encountered were helpful and pleasant.
    I wish we could have stayed longer!

    Very poor
    Never again. Too expensive for what we hit.
    Room 10 was horrible. Illegal stairs to bedroom. Two bumpy twin bed pushed together AGAINST the wall. Extremely small space. Kitchen microwave was dirty. Carpets were dirty.

    Very happy with the location, apartment and the service. I would recommend it to others.
    Nice apartment. It had everything we needed. The location was very good
    It was quite small. We had three people and it was fine. More would have been a stretch.

    Great location and has everything you need for your stay.
    Location, location, location!!! Literally, 1 min from the beach! Continental breakfast was great too. Fully equipped kitchen was very convenient and the BBQ on the main deck super easy to use too. The staff was friendly and helpful.
    Unfortunately the room was not very clean. We had to ask to replace the sheets on both beds as they were dirty and had some hairs on them. We also had to sweep the floors (but there was a broom in the room, so only took a min).
