Property has easy driving access to beach and food venues.
We were blown away with the house. Very clean, welcoming, felt like home. They have thought of every detail. From a fully stocked kitchen, to labeling every light switch. Plenty of towels, blankets, pillows and beach chairs. They even have a crib ready if you have an infant. The pond out back gave our 14yr old a place to fish for hours and wonderful ambiance during the evenings out on the patio. Quiet neighborhood left us feeling comfortable and safe. Close to Walmart and grocery shopping. Only 15 min from the beach and 20 min to Charleston. When we come back we will look for this home again.
The home is ideally located central to just about everything in the Charleston area. The hosts anticipated everything we needed, and were always readily available, The home was very clean and quite well laid out - we have a large family but it didn’t feel cramped! A five-star vacation rental!
PROS: - The family lives nearby and maintain the property with pride. When I needed to call them for support, someone was there in minutes. Well done. - The house was very nice, having two bedrooms with large beds (One En Suite) and a third room with twin beds. The living/dining/kitchens space is spacious and good for activities. There is also a TV/Study/Lounge area off to one side - so... roomy for 1400 foot home. All six guests thought it a great house. Thumbs up on overall design. - Central location to City and destinations around the area. A solid place to stay in the middle of the action Charleston/Mount Prospect/Isle of Palms/SeeWee! - EXTRA AMENITIES great. Three cars worth of parking. House had Beach Chairs and Beach Towels at hand for visitors (Very helpful in an age when travelers travel packed for aircraft overheads only.) There was a first aid kit in the pantry that proved helpful too for minor injury. Washing machine and dryer were right there with soap at hand! Super helpful. CONS: Not really sure - might be VRBO policy of something and not an issue for owners, but was asked for full payment up front. This feels odd since had not even seen the property yet other than web site...and we all know the web is utterly reliable. Worse, I provided credit card on booking - as a result was NOT spending time hovering over VRBO to check it after confirmation. Thought they were simply going to charge to card like a hotel would at end of visit. Instead, by chance checked two days ahead of flight and discovered payment buttons in messages there that required card entry and clicking of buttons to make payments. I am sure this two-step thing is a logical part of a business I do not understand well and would certainly be willing to pay an upfront deposit with a clean conscience - but entire cost up front seems like a lot of trust that the property is going to be excellent. As it was, I had not worked out who was going to pay what between the six folks we had coming to stay. Figured we would sort it out when we got there. The upfront payment meant I personally had to pay it all so glad I had the resources to get it done. Recommend that if the two-payment model it the norm, that the second payment be made on check out to mimic more the way the hotel industry does business. Just a thought!
Well maintained, clean home.
We did not stay at property. Got there at 8:30pm. Had message from owner that keypad was not working and key would be under front door mat. Was not there and there was no keypad on the front door. Texted the owners son who had texted me upon booking. No response. Sent message to owner through VRBO and he showed up in a few minutes. He explained the house had not been cleaned and was not available. He said he had no record of our booking and did not know when we were coming. He offered to put us up in hotel for night with cleaners coming next morning. He refunded our money through VRBO and gave us cash too. It all seemed very shady. Made my family very nervous. My wife called 911. Police showed up. Owner apologized profusely. All could have been legit but just seemed very shady and very unprofessional. Disappointed and unsettling to have driven a long way and be ready to rest and not have a place to stay. Do not understand the break down in communication between owner and VRBO and how they did not have record of our booking and did not know when we were coming. Soured us on booking through VRBO. Very disappointed and wish we had just booked a hotel to begin with as we ended up having to go that route to begin with.
We had a very nice time at Mallard Lakes. The place was well-stocked with everything we needed: nice variety of kitchen supplies, seasonings, toiletries, plenty of towels, and even chairs for the beach. We loved the side patio and enjoyed looking out the water. It was a nice location close to the beach and a 12-15 minute uber to downtown. My one issue is the confusing verbiage around # of guests. The listing says it fits 8 guests and that there is a $50 additional fee for guests. I assumed this meant guests over 8, but the owners let us know that the fee is for any guests over 6. We still had a great stay, but just an FYI to future guests if you're looking for a place in your budget.
We couldn't have hoped for a better home away from home for our daughter's college graduation weekend. It was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The perfect home base for all of our Charleston adventures!
Beautiful accommodations and easy to get to shopping, city and beaches!
Everything from arrival to departure was amazing. The house was very clean and had all the amenities that we needed. The owners went out of their way to help answer questions such as things for teenagers to do around Mount Pleasant. We will definitely stay here again.
