We are a retired couple & look for places to relax, & enjoy the sounds of nature. This place certainly fits the bill. We've been coming to this area for awhile now, & love all of the things to see & do here. Each time we stay, we come for a longer period, as there is always something else we want to see. The owner caters to his guests & has someone available 24 hours a day to take care of any problems that come up. So far we haven't had any!

Homeowner Response:
I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy having you & others like you as guests. I am so very proud to have my rental agent at the beach, who is a good Christian man who sees to it that everyone is taken care of properly & with dignity & respect. He goes the extra mile to provide quality service. I'm also looking forward to taking you up on the offer you made me on the phone of staying at your place in the mountains soon. I love to trade & exchange when it is possible.

Well-worth the money! While we had several people quote us lower rates, none had nearly the comfort or amenities of this place, nor were they in as good shape. We visited several accommodations at the beach while we were there, including others advertised on this website, & most were very disappointing in a number of ways. You get what you pay for, & we were most satisfied with what we got for our money here. The accommodations were clean & fresh. Since pets & smokers aren't allowed, it was good to walk into such a pleasant atmosphere after our beautiful drive up the beach.

Homeowner Response:
You make a great point about rates. I don't try to disparage other rentals but I do try to make sure mine is in tiptop shape. The fact that I don't charge any high taxes or other fees makes it as affordable as anything in the area or even in other resort areas. I also offer, as you know, great discounts for off-season time & for longer stays. About the only time that rates aren't discounted are choice holiday prime spring & summer weekends, which are always in heavy demand. Feel free to email me for any special rates I may have going. This is not a business to me, but a hobby. I enjoy making people like you happy & having them return as friends regularly.

This place is truly as advertised. We had a wonderful time there. The accommodations were very comfortable & are convenient to everything in the area. You certainly won't go wrong with this one. We stay all over the country & will be coming back as regular, repeat guests. The hosts treats you like royalty.

This was the best place we've stayed since we've been taking beach vacations. The amenities are fantastic. We've never stayed in a place that was better equipped for pleasure. It is certainly just like a resort within a resort. We will definitely be coming back, as the owner is a good Christian man & takes great care of his guests. No shortage of things to do but the peace & quiet is very welcome, in contrast to our normally busy lives.
Bob & Allison, Birmingham, AL
Homeowner Response:
Thanks for your very kind comments. I try to treat others as I would want to be treated myself. This place is my second home & I fix it up as I want it, to be enjoyed just as if I was there myself for the week, rather than just a typical rental.

We own another condo at the beach, & another in the mountains, & enjoy trading with the owner of this one on a regular basis. The trades are handled very professionally & without a hitch. We came here first on our honeymoon, & hope to be able to keep coming here until we retire! It was a great & romantic place when we were just a couple, but now the kids love just as well. We wholeheartedly recommend it for all ages & all times of the year. Easy to get to, as it is just off the main parkway, & quiet & private but still convenient to anywhere you want to go for food & fun.

Homeowner Response:
When I bought this condo, it was with people like you in mind. I wanted a place where young couples could come & enjoy, & then bring their families, & finally enjoy it into retirement, just as I hope to do. My parents enjoyed coming there, I certain do myself, & my brother & his kids really like it, too, as do my friends, clients, etc. It truly is a unique place that I was fortunate to find. I own vacation places all over the country, & I'll have to say this is certainly one of my favorites places to go & stay. Even more, I enjoy having others build their own special memories there that will last a lifetime.
