Lakeside Retreat With Panoramic Views Like No Other

Our lakeside home is the perfect vacation spot for families. A bright spacious family room gives visitors a space to hang out, play games, or read. An extra table in the family room is the perfect spot for card games or extra seating at mealtime. A wall of windows allows for maximum sunlight and plenty of lake views. The kitchen has both a bar with seating for three and a dining area with a table for six. The bedrooms are spacious and living areas give plenty of room to spread out. The house sits on two lots and boasts a spacious backyard with a beautiful shade tree. There's plenty of room for the kids to play tag and the adults to sit and enjoy the lake or play a game of corn hole. Free wi-fi, a full kitchen, washer/ dryer, and a pier for sunning will be all your family needs to enjoy a quiet vacation in a homey atmosphere. There are also 4 kayaks for house guests. Lake Waccamaw is the perfect place to "get away" for a quiet retreat, and a change of scenery.

Not quite a "retreat"
This property is way oversold in the listing and way over priced for what you get. It is very old and it is run down. I am sure many happy memories have been made there, but it should be listed as an older, well used property. We had to go life jackets as the ones there were so old and torn. The floor slopes so badly it made my Aunt's vertigo act up. There were torn screens, cobwebs, and dust. It is really only two bedrooms. There is a twin loft bed immediately when you walk into the house and one of the rooms doesn't have a real door. Bath towels were hard to find and there were almost no little amenities if you needed something just to tide you over until you could get to a store. Figuring out what switches did what, even with the labels was a huge challenge. Again, if the property had been a little more forth coming in the listing, I don't think it would have left as bad an impression. If you are looking for an older, well loved and used home, this is perfect. If you are looking for a lovely lake retreat, keep looking.

A great stay for a quick trip!
This quaint little lake house was just the get away we needed on Veteran's Day weekend while we checked in on some property. I booked this home after reading the reviews and still feel it was a good choice. There was plenty of room for everyone (7 total). It was cold and wet outside so we didn't get much use of the property and pier but the views while lunching on shrimp chowder, sipping cocoa and coffee and just enjoying our time was amazing! We had some small issues to contend with however, our host was quick to respond and went out of her way to try and make it better. All in all, I'm sure we will return. As for the details, here are a few to make your stay enjoyable. 1. Clorox wipes should always be in your bag. 2. Expect water bugs by the water. 3. It's an older home with older home charms. Set your expectations accordingly. 4. If something goes wrong, contact the host. They are more than happy to address any concerns. 5. There is great wi-fi but try to make time to just enjoy the views and each other.

Not as expected; Disappointed; Only 3 bedrooms not 4
Overall, disappointing. The listing states that there are 4 bedrooms. That is false. There are only 3 bedrooms. One bedroom is actually the foyer and the playroom and it cannot be closed off from the living room. They have blinds attached to one wall to "separate" it from the living room. Not cool if you are expecting/need an actual 4th bedroom. Additionally, not all of the lights in the house were in working order and several of the ceiling lights did not work or had burned out lightbulbs in them. Although there were extra lightbulbs in the kitchen, we did not have a ladder nor do we believe it should be the renter's job to get up on a ladder and replace the ceiling lightbulbs. Also, the ceiling fan in the master bedroom made a lot of noise; definitely could not sleep with it on. It was a good location, clean, and appeared to have a pretty well stocked kitchen, although we did not cook any meals while there. Overall, it was disappointing. We would not rent there again.

Awesome Family Time
We had an awesome time staying at Sunnyside Up at Lake Waccamaw. The cottage was clean, inviting, and comfortable. It met the needs of our entire family from the youngest to the oldest. Missy (the host) was exceptionally helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend Sunnyside Up to another family.

Church Mission Trip
The property met all our needs and was totally adequate for our purposes. There were 7 of us. We were able to easily schedule bathroom times for showers so only two bathrooms was not a problem, and we prepared food but with such a great porch and backyard we always ate outside. Part of the house is old and dated but not a serious problem. The slab floor in the older part is interesting.

Loved the lake and views.
Very nice property. Great place with family and children. We attended a wedding nearby so unfortunately did not stay at the house much. We’ll be back to enjoy boating and sunsets!
