This home was so beautiful and perfect for our family. The walk to the beach was short and easy to get to. Craig (the host) went above and beyond to make sure we had a great relaxing stay. We cannot wait to come back!

We had a really nice stay. This home was in close walking distance to the beach. The home was cute and cozy and we slept very well. If I had to suggest something to the owners, it would be to put an inexpensive pots and pans set and oven mits in the kitchen. Some families may not want to eat out every night and the kitchen is really nice. We would definitely rent again as we enjoyed our weekend stay.

This was an excellent home away from home to stay! The home is built with quality materials and very beautiful and clean inside. The elevator was a plus, because two of us were not able to use the stairs due to health issues. It was a short walk to the beach and such a beautiful area. Would love to stay here again!

Beautiful Place, Goegeous House

We loved our stay in this spacious, well-lit beautiful home. Communication with the owner was outstanding. Clean and clear open space and floor plan. The front and back decks were lovely and had many rockers and chairs. The washer and dryer, dishwasher, showerheads, and faucets were all new and were terrific quality.

Quick getaway

Place was in a nice location and close to the beach. We wish it would have been less breezy, but the weather was nice. Place was very nice and updated efficiencies. Only thing I would say that I wanted to use the coffee machine but feared to use it as it looked like it had not ben clean for quite a while. We decided to coffee hop other locations which was fun. Would love to come back in the summer as this place is very relaxing as well as the town.

The house was lovely with all the amenities that made our stay comfortable. Short walk to the beach as well as the bicycle rentals and coffee shop. The front and back porches were perfect for drinking your morning coffee or an evening drink.

Excellent Stay

We had a wonderful stay in Carolina Skies. Craig was responsive and helpful. The house was absolutely beautiful and well stocked. The bed was so comfy and so was the couch! Nice beach chairs and a cart. It was nice to be at this end of the island, close to restaurants and the bridge. We would definitely stay again!

Carolina Skies was a fantastic place for our family beach vacation. Craig was great with communication before, during, and after our trip. The house is beautiful and in a great location.

Perfect stay!!

Perfect home, we wish we could live there hahaha. The home was clean, organized, practical with all necessary needs met. Craig replied almost immediately when I had a question and walked me through the process. It was operator error I’m sure, thanks Craig for the help. The home was amazing and just what we needed. We cooked in, very nice accommodations in the kitchen! You can tell so much though has gone in to make this vacation rental more like you are visiting friends. I do hope all renters keep this lovely home up as it is now. We were down for my sons first marathon, the house was right on the course with perfect access to the road behind for viewing as well. The grocery store was very close as to dining, again we utilized the well stocked kitchen with all the essentials for cooking. I would love to come back when we have longer to truly take advantage of the porches and relaxation space.
