The unit was clean and well stocked with everything you would need for an extended stay. There are several ways into the community which is nice. The beach is just a short golf cart ride away and the private parking is awesome. We wouldnt hesitate to book again.

Great space and filled with fun memories

Great location and community.

Location was great and golf cart with the house was key. We misunderstood the importance of the gate card in addition to the entrance placard. If your going to the beach you must get the gate card to get in and out of neighborhood and you must have cash to get the card. Owner was very responsive with questions or problems. The house was great but could use additional cleaning.

Louanne is very nice and extremely helpful. She answered my questions and helped us find the property, when we got turned around. We did have an incident on Friday, when the water repair crew came to fix a problem outside. We were without water for most of the day until approximately 5:00 PM. The property was a little more out dated, then it appeared in the ad, but for our family it was fine. PWe enjoyed having a very nice kitchen that we could cook supper in. It was very up to date. The house was very spacious, but the 3rd bedroom is actually a small room with a daybed and no TV. I would suggest getting socket safety plugs for when you do have families with little ones. The house was close to the beach, a golf cart easily gets you there. Very close to the pools, which is very nice. All in all it was a pleasant stay and I would highly recommend her house.

Plenty of room for our family group! Loved the proximity to the outdoor pool facilities. Beach was a convenient ride away.

The home was spacious and Home owner was amazing and very friendly we will book again my kids enjoyed the play ground and pool and the quick golf cart ride to places

Location was perfect. Close to the pools, playgrounds etc. the golf cart was a big bonus as it was a drive to the beach. Missed several days of not having a card pass., but once I called the owner she told us what to do. It opened up a big time saver that we were missing but never staying here before we did not know how things worked. We figured it out eventually lol. Overall it was a great time and would definitely come back to Ocren Village!

We just got back from our week stay at Louannes home… after giving her a mild heart attack bc we couldn’t find the linen or golf cart ( we were at the wrong house 🤦‍♀️) she was amazing to work with, the house was perfect. Very roomy, clean, had all the amenities we needed, and was a perfect location!!! We will definitely rent again!!!!

Great bike week experience. The property was in a quiet location for night time relaxing. Within walking distance of the swimming pool and hot tub. The golf cart was there in case you wanted to ride to the coast and to Surfside restaurants. Louanne was great to deal with and was very responsive. I will be back to stay there again

So much room! Island stove separate from island eating bar. The air went out on Labor Day and at 9:30 - the owners had a repair man on the scene, the problem was resolved while we sat around in a cool breeze under carport! Over flow parking available and used, neighbor sat with us several nights - five stars is an understatement! Golf cart made morning and evening trips just looking around awesome. We rode bikes with a two year old and six yr old safely and comfortably! We went fishing and caught fish. Indoor heated pool on a day when it rained, a playground for a king, splash pad, hot tub, pool - all used! Restaurants and shopping very close by! I’m usually ready to go after seven days - but not this time! A time that I hope to repeat in the spring/summer! A review will never describe how great this place and community is! But I can say you won’t regret staying here - until you realize you have to leave and go back to “the world”! Thank y’all so much for everything! Will be back!

Spacious living, great location. Will stay again

First off, I’m giving FAIR WARNING to anyone considering renting this home from Louanne. We left in the middle of the night because we were so disturbed by her actions. There is a NON-DISCLOSED CAMERA recording your every move and conversation!!! I’ve contacted VRBO for some resolution to this horrifying invasion of privacy. When I found the camera I hung a hat on it and immediately got a threatening text message to “remove the hat now”. She contacted a neighbor who came over there within minutes to remove my hat!! Not only was my privacy at risk but a STRANGER snuck in there while we were eating supper. Shortly after the hat being on the security camera issue she sent another text message demanding I “put her WiFi back online”. SHE CALLED THE COPS OVER THE WIFI BEING OUT AND TRIED TO BLAME ME. Of course the cops found nothing wrong and went on about their night. To make matters worse, this house is HOT. 81 degrees EVERY DAY inside the home. Louanne was very quick to respond until you actually needed her. I had to call multiple times before she reluctantly agreed to get an AC service call. We spent 2 separate days, waiting for a 3 hour window. Eventually Louanne admitted that the unit was undersized and 81 degrees was “normal”. Granted it was only 85-88 outside. The house only cooled to 77 at night which made for miserable sleeping. This home is also INFESTED with roaches. I’m from South Carolina and know all about palmetto bugs. I’ve never seen this bad of an issue though. In a couple days, we killed 17 roaches. They were crawling on the walls, ceilings, floors and even in the sleeper sofa. As others have said, you will be the maid because Louanne is too cheap to pay for a proper cleaning service. You are required to wash and dry all the sheets and towels before you leave at 10am! This is impossible due to the worn out washer and dryer. The speed cycle on the washer doesn’t work and the dryer has to go through two 1 hour cycles to get the towels dry enough. You are relying on the people before you to have done a proper cleaning and hope everything is sanitary. This was very concerning considering the spread of viruses lately.

We really enjoyed our stay! Great house

Very spacious home for a family vacation! Located in an awesome gated community with lots of amenities and just around the corner from the pool. The golf cart included was also a big plus for getting around & just a super quick ride to the beach!

The house and community fit the needs of our family of 5 perfectlt

Wonderful vacation with family and friends. Louanne makes communication easy, and the neighbors are kind and helpful. Just a golf cart ride to the beach and walking distance to the pools and parks!

Louanne was great to communicate with. She always answered the phone immediately and returned messages promptly. I would definitely deal with her again.

The property is not where it is shone on the map. We were vacationing with family. We picked the property because the map showed it to be 6 blocks away. In reality it was almost 2 miles. I am not the first one to mention this. It is described as a gated community, which it is. They don’t mention that it is actually a mobile home park with 1100 mobile homes. Checking in you are required to find what sheets go to what bed and make up the beds. Leaving you are expected by 10 am to wash, dry and fold all the bedding and towels. I found that impossible to do after trying for 2 hours. The drier is old and not efficient. I did get my full deposit back even though I was unable to wait for the laundry to be done. I do appreciate that. We ran out of toilet paper, hand soap and paper towels the first day. When I asked her if there were replacements, I was told “it would cost her a fortune to supply all these things” and that she had been asked to supply these things by any other renters. She did have a neighbor buy the items at the dollar store and drop them off. She said as a consideration to me. The golf cart was great, location was great and the water park looked super fun for kids.

This property is in a great location with a lot of amenities

This is our third year staying at this house and our family loves it. We had a great time yet again. The house is always great and there is tons for the kids to do in the village. Communication with Louanne is always spot on, even when there is an issue. We will return every year we can!

The house was clean and the provided golf cart made going to the beach relatively easy even though the beach itself is pretty far away. Overall the property and stay were both great.

Had a great time,clean property in nice area.Close to lot of food and activities.

Clean and comfortable home in a great location!! Friendly owner would for sure stay again

House was nice, close to the community splash pad and pool. Having a golf cart made it easy to get to the beach. The community had its own parking for golf carts at the beach. Overall we had a great time.

I was a little disappointed that the house was not located where it was listed to be on VRBO. I originally rented it thinking it was closer to our friends we were visiting. But it turned out to be a very nice place to stay. Oceanside village is a quiet and friendly community. The golf cart is very handy to have and convenient to drive to the beach. The house was pleasant and comfortable for our family of 7. We enjoyed our time!

The house was clean and very roomy even with a big group. Everything listed was available for use.

Nice Home. Included golf cart was great.

This was our second time staying at this home and it was an awesome stay yet again! Plenty of room for everyone. The home had alot of upgrades since our last stay which were great. The use of the golf cart is a huge plus. We had a problem with the air conditioning going out on night two and someone was there and had it fixed within hours. Louanne is wonderful to work with and easy to reach. I would stay here again and again!

No problems easy check in and everything was good

This property was wonderful to stay at! The house is spacious, inviting, and located in a great neighborhood! I would recommend this to anyone looking to stay in Surfside, SC.

Property is exactly what we were looking for close to beach and enjoyed community.
