This was our first trip to Seagrove Beach and first rental in the area, though we are frequent renters in the Carolinas. This was by far the cleanest unit we've rented in our many years of beach vacations. It was spotless, with a well-appointed kitchen, comfy beds and furniture, ample linens, easy check-in -- everything you need for a great stay. The owner was fabulous to work with and very communicative. The whole process was a breeze. As first-time visitors to the area, we loved it: gorgeous beaches and water (and sunsets!), great bike path and all the conveniences you could want (restaurants, stores), but small enough not to be overwhelming. We rented bikes and enjoyed pedaling around to check out the sights and run errands. The only thing we wish would have been clearer in the listing was that some of the beaches in the community are private. This is a new thing for us compared to other areas we've visited. That said, it didn't pose a problem at all. You can walk the beach near the waterline from any access point, and the public beach (Eastern Lake Beach) was a super easy walk of less than a quarter mile. It was just lovely with a great tidal pool. Fabulous beach. A free golf-cart trolley from the complex to the public beach was an added bonus for those who didn't want to walk. It was a wonderful week for our family. I keep saying it's the trip we didn't know we needed until we were there. Great property and a wonderful, relaxing time.
