Salt Water Real Estate in North Carolina

“Basic and bare. Not as described. Not well stocked kitchen, more like mix and match mess. There was no grill, no hair dryer ,no hangers and nothing to clean with but 1 roll of paper towels and dawn. I had to spend my own money on cleaning supplies. The place needed a good cleaning. Back deck was filthy. Dirt not sand. Last thing you want to have to do is go to store and start cleaning. TV broken for 2 days and replaced but you need your own apps to work and register. Just not as described. Realtor is slow and unresponsive to everything except TV . He laughed off anything I asked for and didn't respond. Not happy with having to go purchase hangers, hair dryer and everything else. The location is amazing but this is so way to get repeat customers.”

“I recently stayed at this unit, and unfortunately, it fell far short of expectations. The entire property is extremely outdated and in urgent need of proper maintenance and deep cleaning. Upon entering, we were immediately greeted by a strong, persistent moldy smell that lingered throughout the space for our entire stay. To make matters worse, the living room sofa was visibly filthy, with noticeable layers of dirt and grime embedded into the fabric, making it completely uninviting and uncomfortable to use. Given the current condition of the furniture and the pervasive odor, I cannot recommend this place in its present state. The host seriously needs to invest in thorough professional cleaning, address the moisture/mold issues, and update the furniture before taking on future guests.”

“This place did not match advertised photos at all. Place had a horrible moldy smell. So many items needing maintenance. Front lock was horrible, door not adjusted so that you have to pull very hard on it just to get the lock to operate. Cabinets were missing toe kick on the front, floor mat was disgusting, laminate countertops coming apart, inside of cabinets were beyond even being able to clean. Hole in wall at bedroom, another wall in BR looked like stains from months ago. Mold seeping through paint, almost looks like they painted over mold by shower. Kitchen area had a hole in ceiling that looked like it was fixed with duct tape. Couches and chairs were disgusting, felt like a layer of grime. Floors were uneven, almost like house was settling. The front was bad, broken bricks, unpainted, door had peeling paint, cigarette butts all over. Whole place needs paint. Table and chairs dont match photos. Pictures look like they were taken years ago. Would NEVER stay here again.”

“The house location is great. Short walk to the beach. The house condition was not. The steps up to the house had loose boards and raised nails, none of the outside lights worked including the entire string of lights hung. This made it difficult navigating in the dark. The electric garage door did not work requiring you have to manually lift it. The air did not cool the house properly. We were told to keep the air on 74 and that they were having a very hot summer. The back bedrooms stayed uncomfortably hot and guests in those rooms had trouble sleeping. The mattress's in two of the bedrooms were extremely firm to the point of painful. The sheets in the Master were dirtly requiring a wash. The drains didnt work well in any of the upstairs leading to ankle deep water during showers. The outdoor shower also did not work. Kitchen refrigerator missing door shelves so less storage and very old pots and pans. Kitchen did have decent stock. 3 total forks for our family of 6.”

“The smoke odor was overpowering and made it unsafe for my family, especially for anyone with asthma or children. The place was in poor condition and clearly neglected. It did not match the listing at all. We had to leave immediately. Would not recommend.””
