Station One - TH9 - Oceanfront townhouse with community pool, tennis, beach

The location was great! They had everything that we needed from coffee maker, bikes and washer and dryer. If theres a negative the 3rd bedroom is an open loft that worked for my family but may not for people lookkng for 3 private bedrooms. The location to the beach was at best a 2 min walk. My kids want to book again for next year!!

We have stayed in this condo development in the past, first time in this unit. The location is fantastic. Walkable to little shops, stores, bars, ice cream etc. This was renovated more recently than the last unit we stayed in. I give wholistic reviews, hoping it will help property owners and prospective renters. The positive: Location is ideal. Pool is very nice. The owner purchased decent mattresses which is great. Many people don't. Kitchen had most anything you would need to prepare a mail. The look of the unit was positive and unique. Cool. Nice washer and dryer in garage of unit. The challenges, all which can be improved: No TV in master bedroom. Not the end of the world. Ants everywhere. Not uncommon in the Carolina's but the property owners or their HOA need to do a better job with insect control. The front door looks like someone has previously tried to break into it. I'm not saying that is what happened as this is a safe area, but that it the look. Framing really needs replaced. There is one large fridge and freeze combo but also two small ones which is nice, except the two small ones didn't work well. A tiny bit of loving care and this unit could be 5 stars. Overall, would stay again. The positive outweigh the negatives.

The water softener hadnt been maintained so we were without master shower for 2 days. The other upstairs shower was also not working wrll but alsp leaked into the floor below. Apparently this has been brought up before our visit just npt fixed. We had maintence folks in and out of the hpise for 2 days. No tv remote for 1 of the 2 tvs and lots of lightbulbs out in a dimly lit property to begin with. Patio furniture is broken - you cant use the 2 chairs. Great location with awful management.

This was a great rental for our small group of friends. The location was amazing! Close to good restaurants and on direct path to the beach. The tennis court was very convenient. We appreciated the tire pump in the garage for using the bikes. The only issue we encountered was the door and lock. It was very difficult to open and close the door to assure it was locked. We had better luck from the inside getting it closed. I assume the heat we experienced while there probably was not helping the matter. The management company was very responsive. Thank you! Look forward to staying there again in the future!

We have stayed at this property multiple times & it never disappoints:))

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Arrived 4pm Wed afternoon - confusion over how to enter the rental unit due to staff not explaining the keys issued were not to the door, but for use with the development outdoor amenities (gates to return from beach, etc). The combination to open the rental door was confusing then door would not budge - did not want to force it in case we would damage the door or frame so maintenance person was dispatched to open lock with his key and he forced the door open. Turns out the top of door/frame is binding and bottom has 1/2 inch gap so the entry of unit was very cold from air rushing in. Adding heat to the unit (which was below 50 deg F) took a while as the thermostat had no instructions and once we worked out how to set, we determined all adjustments had to be made on the upstairs unit for both zones (lower thermostat is display only). Clearly the prior user did not set temp to 58 deg per exit instructions, nor did any pre-rental visit by staff set the temp. This cold exacerbated the front door warping/binding as later in the rental period when it warmed up (70 deg days on Xmas) the front door binding was much less. Also, unable to heat the unit or enjoy the fireplace units as no instructions provided how to activate and we did not puzzle how these units worked, did not want to mess with them due to the danger of gas appliance. All other features of the unit were nice and we enjoyed our visit once we got warm, and the beach weather improved. Great location!

Note that getting into/out of the master tub/shower could be challenging for shorter/older clients.

We love Station One for the location, tennis, and pool. Staff there are always friendly and accommodating. This was the first time we were disappointed. At 3:45 pm on day of check in, not only was the unit not cleaned, it reeked of garbage. Apparently it had been vacant for a week (according to neighbors) and the tenants left tons of garbage. Consequently the house smelled for a couple days and we had to contend with flies for most of the week. This rental was listed as a three bedroom. However the room with two day bed singles had no door, it appeared more like a seating area. Master bath is dangerous to get in and out of shower. And this was the first time there was no TV in the master bedroom. No lighting over the dining table made playing games/cards a challenge. In spite of these complaints, we had a great time. We would not hesitate to rent through Intracoastal again, just not this unit!

Views from the giant window in the master bedroom were amazing. The outside deck was nice with a table that was big enough for all of us. Underneath had plenty of space to store all our beach stuff. Easy walk to the beach and pool. We all had a great time!
