We have the best friends from living in Wilmington, NC but had to move to Atlanta, GA. So we get both families (children & grandchildren) together and put McDonald and Johnson together for our summer trip together. We loved Surfside, so much to do and we were so close to restaurants, parks, the ocean and having a pool was a plus. We have already decided to go back there next year. Not to mention by sister lives in Murrell's Inlet so she could pop in to visit as well. The weather was perfect all week and everyone had a blast.

The kitchen was well equipped. Bedrooms were roomy. Nice neighborhood, very close to the beach. The only problem we had was that there wasn't enough living room/dining room space for 16 people.

On the positive- Perfect location, awesome that we had a very short walk to the beach. Able to fit 4 cars and a golf cart in garage space. The house has plenty of space for large group of people. Dishwasher works great. Convenient to grocery, shops, restaurants. On the negative- carpets need cleaned. Our bare feet were black just minutes after walking on it. Mattress in back room on 2nd floor by door needs replaced as it sinks on the left side. Stove and microwave could use updating. There was rust inside the microwave and it was not cleaned upon our arrival. Water filter in fridge needs replaced as water and ice tasted funny. Need better pest control. Found a few dead roaches in master bedroom. House could use some painting on porch areas and main entrance door which has a nasty looking black stain. The pool could use a solar cover for heating since its small and not heated. Beware and check your dog’s paws for grass stickers/sand burrs when walking in from outside. All in all, we had a great time during our stay!

Excellent location. Private pool just the right size. Across the street from the beach. Never had to get in the car!

Great property! Has everything you could need!
