This is a beautiful house in an excellent location, but upkeep is lacking. Shortly before arrival we were notified that the garage doors and code pad were not working. The fact that keys were left in a lock box indicates that the keypad had not been working for a while. The chlorine in the pool kept going too high, requiring 3 trips by the pool company. The grill near the pool had a multi-year buildup of grease and burned meat. We used it once but not again. The picture on line of the beach chairs and pool and sand toys is completely fraudulent. I guess it was taken when the house opened a few years ago. Today, the fabric on the chairs is shot, and the aluminum is highly pitted. In fact 3 chairs collapsed on the beach from normal use. The toys have been heavily used, have never been cleaned, and are all missing parts and pieces. We used none. Several of the bathroom doors are pocket doors and were very difficult to operate. Finally, one night around midnight, the door bell started ringing every two minutes. A call to the management company suggested that this problem had occurred before and was attributed to the Ring door bell which was loosely attached. I had to detach the leads on the doorbell using a kitchen knife since we did not have screwdrivers so people could sleep. Very disruptive. Overall, this was the poorest maintained and prepared beach house in 40 years of renting along the NC coast. Save your money and choose another house.
