Check-in was simple and the house was easy to find, with adequate Wi-Fi. However, the property was unclean upon arrival. The mattresses were old, stained, sandy and VERY uncomfortable. We spent the first few hours cleaning the bathrooms, purchasing new mattress pads, and wiping out dresser drawers. Several maintenance issues were present, including a broken ceiling fan, non-working golf cart light, broken closet shelves and porch fence gate. The kitchen was well stocked and had a nice lay out. We did enjoy our time on the outside porch but it needs to be swept weekly. We would not likely return unless significant updates were completed. This house could be great but needs to updated and cleaned. Ocean Lakes is wonderful and we enjoyed the ocean, pool, and activities. The neighbor was nice and helped us when needed.
My son and his 3 best friend's will be seniors. This will probably be our last year coming down with this group. They will go off to college and in a flash will have their own family to vacation with. Thank you Camille for allowing us to stay in your lovely beach home. The boys had a wonderful trip.
This was the best house we have rented in Ocean Lakes. Smelled wonderful when we walked in, very clean and felt like home. The only downside to this house was the beds. None of them were comfortable. They all need new mattresses but everything else was amazing. The kitchen was very well organized and stocked with everything you need to cook. They could have a few storage bowls for convenience to keep leftovers. The golf cart was a blessing to get to the beach and back and the kids really enjoyed riding everyday. The owner Camille, was very helpful when I emailed with questions prior to arrival. You can tell she takes great care of her house and is a great home owner/renter. We really enjoyed staying in this house and will definitely try to rent it again in the future. Thank you Camille for allowing us to stay in your beautiful house.
Ocean Lakes was fun and we enjoyed the amenities. The house was fine to stay in but the upstairs toilet wasn't flushing correctly, we found water bottles in the downstairs closet, and trash under the upstairs bed. I'm not a fan of paying a cleaning fee and then having to sweep the floors on my way out, but this was the unspoken expectation at this house. I never leave a house in a mess but was told by the owner it was because we left the rugs on the floor and didn't put the sheets away. I didn't realize we were supposed to do the cleaning person's job for them...
We stayed 3 nights and had a wonderful experience. House was just as described and clean, golf cart was included and we loved the covered porch. Easy check in with clear instructions from the owner and house is located in a quiet section of the campground, we look forward to staying here again!
I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed this property over a long family weekend. The home is in a perfect, quiet, and peaceful corner of Ocean Lakes. The homeowner was helpful and willing to help us in anyway to enjoy our weekend. We will visit Ocean Lakes again, and when we do, we hope to be lucky enough to stay at this property.
We had a great time! The house was exactly as described, large kitchen, plenty of space! The front porch was our favorite spot! The only complaint I could even half way think of would be that the beds werenât the most comfortable, but no bed is like sleeping in your own!
This property was perfect for our large family. We had quite the crew... husband, wife, MILx2, a 4 year old, 2.5 year old, 1.5 year old, and a 2 month old. This was our first time visiting Ocean Lakes and we were so impressed. The house fit the whole family comfortably. The property was clean, just a short ride to the beach on golf cart, and on the quiet side of ocean lakes. The porch was probably my favorite part bc my kids want to be outside 24/7 so when we were at the house most of our time was spent on the porch. The golf cart was also such a nice bonus...my kids were obsessed. I would definitely stay at this property again and recommend it to family and friends.
We loved staying here! The house was very comfortable and in a great location. It was a great place for our family of 3.
The only reason I gave cleanliness 4 stars is because I had to mop the floors when we got there due to our feet getting dirty just by walking around. There was also no toaster and where the toaster should be, there were lots of crumbs in the cabinet.
Even with those tiny issues, we would definitely stay here again. Camille was great and very easy to communicate with. Plus, having a golf cart come with the house was awesome!
Camille is fantastic, always available if we needed anything ! The house was perfect, kitchen completely stocked. We had such a great stay! Love this property! We will rent again from Camille.
My intention in this honest review is not to shame the owner but to bring awareness to others who may choose housing based on past cleaning reviews. I truly believe the owner has the best intentions and has put a lot of thought into the home. However, we had several major issues with the cleanliness of this property. Maybe it was just an off week for our stay, but honestly, the house needs a major deep clean. There is dust everywhere, trash under the beds, clogged showers, sticky spots all over the floor, etc. I spent the first day of our vacation vacuuming and mopping, washing bedding, etc, because of the amount of sand and dust present, even on the beds. Even though there were aspects of the house that did not meet expectations and left us disappointed, we had beautiful weather and an amazing time at the beach. We did appreciate the included golf cart, spacious kitchen, and porch area. Best of luck to the host and future visitors, but unfortunately, I doubt we will stay here again.
Very beautiful house and we really enjoyed our stay. The only thing was that the cleaning service did not dust or mop well and my son struggled all week with his allergies.
My family, my sister and BIL and my father came to our favorite campground. The house had plenty of room for everyone and was on a nice quiet part of the campground. Everyone had a great time.
Plenty of room and loved the open kitchen and living room! Loved all the hooks in bathroom to hang towels and nice big washer and dryer! The owner was very good to deal with and responded quickly if you needed anything!
My husband and I are retired teachers in New York State. We have been camping at Ocean Lakes since 1972 at Easter vacation with our 4 children. Our children are grown and we now have 8 grand-children. We decided to buy a tiny place after HUGO and we kept it 10 years until we could afford our dream house. In 2001, we tore it down, and built the home that is there now. Sharing it with others is a pleasure and it also enables us to own it. Thank you in advance for thinking about using it.

We kept exploring where the best beach is in the East. We could not find a more perfect family beach than Myrtle Beach. In particular, Ocean Lakes is safe, clean and family oriented.
