Great Stay Again!
This is the 3rd time our family has rented this house. Grandma loves the first floor master suite and easy walk over to the beach. We love the location and the upkeep of this property. Neighbors are sweet and being able to walk to the sound under the beautiful trees is a big bonus!

Wonderful home! This has been one of our favorite beach rentals and we have been coming for 20 years! My kids asked if we could keep (purchase) the property because they loved so many features of the house. Ha! One can dream…. ;) Thanks for a lovely trip!

I just loved the entire process, your entire staff was great and helpful. This made our stay even better. I will definitely book again with Ward Realty. Also I'd like to point out that even reading all the fine print was enjoyable because you added so many statements about enjoying the vacation that made me feel like I wasn't reading a contract. Furthermore about the property itself, the house was even better than the pictures and description explained. We just loved everything about our experience, you all and the property owners are great!

Our group stayed in this house before the renovations. We love the updates and new layout. The kitchen is well equipped and the vacuum works great! We enjoyed our stay.
