We had an excellent stay at Model Vacation Rentals. The place was super clean, and well kept. The large TV and pool table were highlights of the weekend for sure. The patio out back was perfect for evening relaxing. And the hosts were very accommodating of our group. 5 stars for sure! Thanks again to Kim and her team.

We absolutely loved our stay! Our group of 8 slept very comfortably, and the house was extremely clean and spacious. The hot tub was such a great added touch and definitely something we enjoyed during our stay. I was a little concerned about possible pet odors since the home is pet-friendly, but there was absolutely no pet or dog smell at all. Everything smelled fresh and was very well maintained. Our host was wonderful—she responded quickly whenever we needed anything and even checked in on us during our stay to make sure everything was going well. The large driveway was perfect for our group since we had multiple cars. The location was also very convenient, with several stores, the beach, and Dollar General within walking distance. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend, especially for a group! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a fine air bnb if you just need a couple days and don’t plan on being there much. The kitchen was well stocked and all the appliances worked well. The beds were mostly comfortable. The couch/TV was great. Best part of the house. The carpet needs replacing and the patio/furniture needs work. We didn’t use the hot tub. I would stay here again but I wouldn’t pay 2k for three days unless the patio furniture and grill were updated and the carpet replaced.
