Great location and size of house. Let down by air conditioning problems, WiFi problems and swimming pool cleanliness. Cutlery needs a review - limited number of spoons and wine glasses.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: We have been staying beachfront in Garden City & Murrells Inlet for 40 years. This has been the best property we have stayed at for our family setup. Bask Away addressed any issues right away and looking forward to staying again. Only issue we had was one of the pool pumps was not working and wasn’t able to be fixed before we left.

6 / 10Average·Jun 2026
The location and beach access was great! We have stayed in many homes in the past for our big family vacation. This house by far had the most big issues. Had we known about these we would NOT have stayed. Some of the larger issues were: 1. Dishwasher at the island does not work and is not attached.  It falls forward when you open and slide out the racks. 2. Room temperature control was difficult. The baby monitor would record the temperature during the day at 73 F (thermostat setpoint) and during the night the temperature would drop to 63 F. Unfortunately we had no control over the thermostat. This too was also stated in a previous review. 3. Many in our family had complained that the mattresses were not comfortable. My wife and I experienced the same thing. They seemed to be VERY firm. 4. Bathtub in 2nd floor bedroom above kitchen leaks. This leaked into a can light in the kitchen. This too was also reported in a previous review. There is a good chance you have mold growing in the floor space as a result.5. Above the kitchen island is a return air vent with two air filters. The air filters look extremely dirty. The BASK office indicated that filters are replaced monthly. This one looks like it has not be replaced in many months. We were reluctant to prepare food under it because it was so dirty. An odd place to place the return air vent.6. Approximately a dozen more items that need addressed.BUYER BEWARE.
