Keep Family Gathering

The house was nice but had issues. A lot of the bathroom lights didn’t work. Toilets were loose and leaned when using them. Stayed at a lot of rentals and they usually are stocked with minor stuff like toilet paper and paper towels. Nope had to go buy it.There was ants all over kitchen and roachs had to go buy bug spray. Don’t get wrong these are minor cause location was great and house was layed out great. But also one bed had a large lump in middle of bed so you couldn’t sleep on it upstairs. Overall good but definetly needs to clean up and fix some things for guests.

A fun & relaxing place to stay

Our family ranges in age from 3 to 62 and we all had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. We made wonderful memories and left part of our hearts back there for sure. The home is clean, huge and we had lots of space to do inside and outdoor activities. We paid for the heated pool and it was awesome! We would definitely stay here again. The owner is responsive and helpful. We wish we were back there!!

Great area. House needed a good deep cleaning!

Great area, nice set up. The renters before us left the place dirty and trash everywhere. The cleaning company did a very poor job of cleaning. Toilets dirty, microwave disgusting, sand and crumbs on the floors. Litter around the pool area, grill had trash and remnants of food on it. Emailed the owner, 3 days later he responded. I asked about the heated pool, the owner wanted 300.00 bucks to turn the heater on for 5 days. Wow! The place needs a real good deep cleaning and paint. A/C fingers had so much mold it’s a wonder renters aren’t sick. Two of the beds including the master mattress are god awful. Not sure I’d ever go back to this place but would go back to the area.

Family vacation

The property was well cared for and met our expectations as described. The location made it easy to go back and forth to the beach and we loved having our own private pool.

About the host

Hosted by Allen Rivers

We have invested our heart and soul into this house in an effort to make it a second home for all who stay. Our hope is that Fiddler on the Reef gives you a taste of home when you vacation with us. We are dedicated to creating a memorable experience for all, so please don't hesitate to contact us! So if you desire a CLEAN and RELAXING retreat, come get some sand in between your toes and wind down at FIDDLER ON THE REEF!

Why they chose this property

We have vacationed in Surfside Beach every year with our loved ones. The clean white beach and safe community is what has brought us back every year. Our family includes grandparents, new parents, newborns, newlyweds, and teenagers. We are guaranteed a good time for any age! Surfside Beach is a safe environment for our children and is close to any attraction we desire. This is primarily a PRIVATE BEACH HOME community, so you won't have to deal with as many crowds as Mrytle Beach.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the front porch or the back porch that overlooks the beautiful private pool. Listen to music while watching the kiddos play in the pool. Head to the beach anytime of day for a relaxing moment to walk the shoreline for shells, lounge in the chair with a good book or some beach games, or enjoy and cold beverage while wading in the water!
