Vacay 2025

Three generations of family had a fabulous time at the lake house. Our favorite part was the ease of getting into the water and having the kayaks in tip-top shape made the water play even more fun. The interior met our needs as well.

The house and location was great, only complaint is the house was not clean by any means and was filled with spider webs along with the porch. I know the shower was not cleaned prior to us coming because there was a crumbled used bar of soap in the shower.

Simple and quite

This is an older home that has much character. One thing we especially liked is its view of the back yard, lakeshore and dock are unobstructed so we could watch the kids from anywhere in the common areas of the house. The price was very reasonable and we had a pleasant experience.

Awesome Family Time

We had an awesome time staying at Sunnyside Up at Lake Waccamaw. The cottage was clean, inviting, and comfortable. It met the needs of our entire family from the youngest to the oldest. Missy (the host) was exceptionally helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend Sunnyside Up to another family.

Family Long Weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunny Side Up! Missy was more the great to work with and very accommodating. We hosted our son’s 1st birthday party in the backyard and when your family has more kids than adults this is the perfect setting! Swimming, yard games & grilling out made for a relaxed and fun weekend. The lake is shallow which is perfect for kids & adults who want to play baseball in the lake. The house was spacious, wi-fi great & the kitchen was equipped well. Missy even left some kid friendly snacks & juice pouches! We will return every year if able. Highly recommend for a family fun week/weekend.
