Corolla Vacation

This was a multi family vacation. We had 11 adults. Very comfortable location. Short walk over to the beach, and the property has a nice pool and a hot tub. Well maintained and in good shape. Great time was had by all!

Fabulous family fun

Great! Lots to do though rec room games needed a few fixes Pool and volleyball court were wonderful! Most bedrooms great, though bunk room a bit tight for teens; closets too full of things so not enough room for our stuff. But not a huge problem, we just moved a few things around. . Lovely kitchen but a bit crowded with extra things Mr. Carter was very accommodating and got us things quickly when we were missing them. Thank you! We had a memorable week together as a family of 18!

Entire Family Vacation

Smile Away was the perfect place for a vacation with our adult children and their families. A close and easy walk to the beach for all ages and the pool and hot tub were all perfect for our crew. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Plenty of dishes, utensils, pans, and appliances needed for a large crowd. The games were up-to-date and pieces all there which was a pleasant surprise. The layout of all the rooms allowed for privacy for everyone when it was wanted and their was plenty of room when we all wanted to gather. When contacting the owner, communication was quick and helpful. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great property, great location, beware the owner

The kitchen is well stocked, the house is spacious. Sleeps 20 means 3 to a king size bed. Not enough pillow cases for the pillows. The owner constantly sent in people to do ‘maintenance’ without warning, even though he knew I had 12 girls in the house. Constantly wanted proof of who was in the house-had to submit drivers licenses twice, had to take pictures in front of the house as proof of being there. He gave the door pin to a stranger who snuck in to count the people in the house and said he didn’t need to explain. We had girls sleeping, dressing and walking around in PJs. He behaves wildly inappropriately. Pity, because it’s a great venue.
