The location was great! Great eating spaces. Beach was not heavily populated even on a Saturday. Great place to hang with family. Only negatives was the musty smell and the darkness from the dark paneling.

Good times indeed!!!
What a great vacation thanks to VRBO. Property description was spot on and the house was really nicely appointed. Loved the rooftop deck! Kitchen was small but well equipped for our needs. I liked the ease of the keyless entry. VRBO is easy to use and Bryant was very responsive to our questions. If our vacation party remains at the same number, I'd use this cottage again. If we need a bigger place, we will return to VRBO. My daughter and I have used them for a few years now and it couldn't be easier.

Perfect girls’ getaway
4 friends in their 40s had a great time. That rooftop deck is the perfect place to relax, catch up, and eat. Very short walk to the beach. Great location.

Highly recommended, but just a heads up...
This house is everything described in the listing and more. It is in a great neighborhood, the house was immaculate, and there's nothing bad to say, really. Be aware that most of the bedrooms don't have ceiling fans. If you're the type who needs moving air or noise to sleep, take a box fan. The bedrooms in the older part of the house are extremely dark, due to dark paneling on the walls and ceiling. One bedroom has lamps on either side of the bed, but there is no receptacle within reach of the cords. Take some extension cords to alleviate this problem. This isn't a complaint, it's just a heads up. We had a great stay, after a trip to the dollar store to procure these items.

The house was perfect! We had six guests and everyone had somewhere to sleep. It was extremely clean and well-decorated and comfortable. Right on the beach, too - we kept the windows open so we could hear the ocean! The porch up top had a perfect view of the beach and we spent most of our time up there. Everyone loved this house and we would definitely rent it again! Bryant Real Estate was also easy to work with - they responded quickly to all questions, had an app that made everything simple (it had information about the keyless checkin, trash day, weather forecast, and even places to eat nearby), and were very polite. Thanks to the house owners and to Bryant Real Estate!

This house was the perfect size for our group... Two adult couples, one adult by herself, and a 3 year old. We ended up not even using the kids room, but it was a good place to stash a lot of our luggage.Highlights:- The house was super clean. - The house is perfectly located... easy walk to the pier (to the south) or Carolina Beach shops/restaurants (to the north). - The communities across the street are really nice to walk/run through... for a longer walk/run, it’s really easy to get to the Carolina Beach Greenway.- The bedrooms get really dark which was awesome on days we wanted to sleep in.- Lots of space to eat for big family meals.- The rooftop balcony was awesome (except for the caveat below)- Really easy to get on and off the beach. We never really even bothered to take a cooler to the beach because it was so easy to run back to the house and grab another drink.Couple of downsides, which probably couldn’t have been avoided...- We noticed ants in the kitchen and the main bathroom as soon as we walked in. However, the rental office had an exterminator out to spray for them in less than 24 hours after we called.-We all got really bit up by various bugs on our first night up on the rooftop balcony. We bought a few citronella candles after that and it seemed to help some.We would definitely stay again!

Reviewer Comments:
Our family typically stays in a busy condo in Garden City SC. We wanted to try something quiet when I was booking last December - something more family oriented. We could not have picked a better year to try quiet with COVID-19 included in our plans! The beach in front of the house was pretty much ours so there was no "Social distancing" concern. The house was just as we expected. We knew it was a smaller house and would be a little cramped but that is kind of what we wanted. We wanted to have a location where the only thing to do was to enjoy each others company, play board games, and sit on the beach. The location of the house is great - this area is kept up much better than Carolina Beach. We would come back again. That being said, the owner could address a few things. The master bedrooms was FREEZING. We ended up closing all our vents and had to keep our door open at night. I slept in sweatpants and a long sleeved shirt. If we changed the temperature in the house then everyone else was sweating all night. The master bathroom door lock was a little hard to unlock. The other bathroom door was repaired while on site because people kept getting locked in. The first two steps up going towards the beach were repaired some while I was onsite. One of the steps was slanting downwards which led to me falling twice. I am sure code does not require a handrail but it would be nice if one was installed. The step remained a little slanted probably because there was nothing to nail to - at least what we got our of the conversation the repairman was having with himself:) And one little thing, every paper plate we placed on the kitchen table had to be pealed back off. At first we thought it was because the food was hot but then it happened with cold food as well. Not sure what was causing it. After we had been in the house a few hours we noticed our grandson was finding things on the floor and putting them in his mouth. Upon closer look the rug was really dirty.

Great house overall
Loved the upper deck and ease of going to the beach. House had nice appliances, cookware and a large table. The master bath tile grout (both inside shower and floor) needs a good cleaning. Driveway was hard to get in and out of because of traffic, especially when 2 cars were in the driveway. Would not recommend getting a golf cart at this house if there is more than 1 car in the drive. Would have enjoyed the house more without the carpet. Overall, it is a great house! The owners have done a great job of renovating it!

Reviewer Comments:
The rental experience with Bryant was great. Everything was very convenient and the house was clean ready to go. Good Times was a nice size for our family of four but I would not recommend it for a larger group. The location was amazing since it was a good distance from away from public beach access, condos, and hotels. It felt as if we had the beach to ourselves. The number one complaint we had was that the beds were very uncomfortable. So much so that we had to buy a mattress pad to get through the week and very really had a good nights rest. Secondly, since the house is not raised, there isn't a beach view unless you go up on the deck and since it isn't a covered porch, when it rains there is no view at all. And lastly, they need to upgrade the living room furniture. Unless you have small kids, the living is very small and the furniture is dated and uncomfortable.

On the beach
Our family stayed here Memorial Day weekend. The house is much bigger than it looks. Plenty of beds for our big crowd. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals. The living room had plenty of comfy seating for hanging out
It is a one mile walk to the pier, by sand or by road.
There is a roof top deck but we didn’t really utilize it. It is really hot during the day and very open so no privacy from the neighbors.
There is no beach view from inside the house, which is a bit disappointing. But it is right in the beach. The walkway was recently redone and looks great. There is an outdoor shower which is great after a long sandy day at the beach.
We did have an issue with bugs. When we arrived there were several dead water bugs in some of the rooms. During our stay we encountered several more which was a bit unsettling.
The house was big enough to house our big family and being on the beachfront was a huge plus.
The only downside was no beach views from inside and the bugs. Otherwise very satisfied.

This was a great small house among huge homes. The views were spectacular and the room sizes were just right for the 6 of us. The outdoor shower provided even more "bathroom" space for all of us. My only suggestion would be to put new flooring in the bedrooms and living room.

Great house & location!
Overall, we really loved this house! The location to the beach was awesome, and the rooftop deck was a favorite. Unfortunately there was construction on the huge house next door, and we woke up to hammering every morning. Obviously this won’t always be the case, and this house is such a gem & a little hideout. The size was perfect for us. We had some hiccups checking in as the property was still being cleaned and we weren’t able to get in until almost two hours past check in time. It was remedied with an extended check out time. We missed having a grill to cook, and the kitchen was a bit small but we made it work. We would definitely consider this house again :)

It was great!! When we checked in it was clean. The house was perfect for you needs. The only downfall about our location was that the house next to us was under CONSTANT construction from 6am until near dark. The construction workers were obscenely loud at all times blaring music and shouting. This made it difficult to relax within the house or even use the rooftop deck until after dark.

We really enjoyed our week at Good Times. We share the rental house with another family and it was perfect for 8 people. The house was rustic which seemed somewhat outdated, but after reading about the history of the house, it made it extra special. The house has all your basics kitchenware and fully furnished. It doesn't have any thing else besides salt and black pepper though. This was our first time renting a house so we're didn't realize we would need everything including trash bags and dish soap. The mattress could use an update. It wasn't anything special and I think probably at least 10 years old. Maybe next time we go back the owners will update the mattresses. If they're going to get new mattresses, I recommend a little better qualit such as a thicker mattress or pillow top.

We really liked this house. It was very spacious and the kitchen was just big enough to cook all of our meals and to store all of our essential food items. We were VERY IMPRESSED that it came with a good blender!The bedrooms were great and had plenty of storage. The living room was nice and bright, with lots of space. We liked the outdoor shower and porch, as this helped us hose down all of the sand and the kids before entering the house.The view from the top deck was great and we were able to see the Carolina Beach fireworks from our little boardwalk. Being on the beach was wonderful, especially with three young kids and lots of gear.The neighborhood was quiet and clean. The one service call I did make got addressed immediately and I was very happy with the service.The only suggestion would be to replace the mattress in the master bedroom with a harder one. We woke up with sore backs and after two days we switched the mattress in the master bedroom with the one in the adjoining bedroom and what a difference! No more sore backs and a great night's sleep! We would definitely recommend this to people with young kids and look forward to visiting again in the future.
