Our family typically stays in a busy condo in Garden City SC. We wanted to try something quiet when I was booking last December - something more family oriented. We could not have picked a better year to try quiet with COVID-19 included in our plans! The beach in front of the house was pretty much ours so there was no "Social distancing" concern. The house was just as we expected. We knew it was a smaller house and would be a little cramped but that is kind of what we wanted. We wanted to have a location where the only thing to do was to enjoy each others company, play board games, and sit on the beach. The location of the house is great - this area is kept up much better than Carolina Beach. We would come back again. That being said, the owner could address a few things. The master bedrooms was FREEZING. We ended up closing all our vents and had to keep our door open at night. I slept in sweatpants and a long sleeved shirt. If we changed the temperature in the house then everyone else was sweating all night. The master bathroom door lock was a little hard to unlock. The other bathroom door was repaired while on site because people kept getting locked in. The first two steps up going towards the beach were repaired some while I was onsite. One of the steps was slanting downwards which led to me falling twice. I am sure code does not require a handrail but it would be nice if one was installed. The step remained a little slanted probably because there was nothing to nail to - at least what we got our of the conversation the repairman was having with himself:) And one little thing, every paper plate we placed on the kitchen table had to be pealed back off. At first we thought it was because the food was hot but then it happened with cold food as well. Not sure what was causing it. After we had been in the house a few hours we noticed our grandson was finding things on the floor and putting them in his mouth. Upon closer look the rug was really dirty.

We enjoyed our stay at this ocean front property. Our family of 6 visited the beach over Memorial Day weekend. The house is much bigger that it appears from the street. The bedrooms were spacious and the bathrooms were clean. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals during our stay. There is a rooftop deck with great views of the ocean. Not much privacy on the rooftop, close to neighbors.
Location was great, only a mile walk to the pier.
THe downside to the house is there are no ocean views from inside the house. And there were bugs. When we arrived there were several dead waterbugs on the floor. We continued to see live waterbugs throughout our stay, especially in the bedrooms.
Other than the bugs and the lack of view from the inside, the house was great.

Hi Jennifer- Great to hear everyone enjoyed! Its definitely bigger than it appears from the street, deceiving.

The rental experience with Bryant was great. Everything was very convenient and the house was clean ready to go. Good Times was a nice size for our family of four but I would not recommend it for a larger group. The location was amazing since it was a good distance from away from public beach access, condos, and hotels. It felt as if we had the beach to ourselves. The number one complaint we had was that the beds were very uncomfortable. So much so that we had to buy a mattress pad to get through the week and very really had a good nights rest. Secondly, since the house is not raised, there isn't a beach view unless you go up on the deck and since it isn't a covered porch, when it rains there is no view at all. And lastly, they need to upgrade the living room furniture. Unless you have small kids, the living is very small and the furniture is dated and uncomfortable.

Hi Keri- Thank you for your feedback, we will pass along recommendations. Glad you enjoyed the location minus having that highrise beach view. Hope you'll visit us in Kure Beach again soon!

It was great!! When we checked in it was clean. The house was perfect for you needs. The only downfall about our location was that the house next to us was under CONSTANT construction from 6am until near dark. The construction workers were obscenely loud at all times blaring music and shouting. This made it difficult to relax within the house or even use the rooftop deck until after dark.

Manager response on 2019-08-13 - Response from Bryant Real Estate
So glad you enjoyed your stay and the home but I do apologize the neighbors detracted from your enjoyment. 6 am is quite early and would be a violation of the town ordinance. Though we can not control or prevent any one from opting to work on their home, our towns have noise ordinances to control the impact on you. Had you given us a call, we could have let you know about the ordinance, and then a quick report to the authorities would have stopped the construction in off hours. Regardless - I am so glad you and your family still enjoyed the home and our services!

We really enjoyed our week at Good Times. We share the rental house with another family and it was perfect for 8 people. The house was rustic which seemed somewhat outdated, but after reading about the history of the house, it made it extra special. The house has all your basics kitchenware and fully furnished. It doesn't have any thing else besides salt and black pepper though.
This was our first time renting a house so we're didn't realize we would need everything including trash bags and dish soap.

The mattress could use an update. It wasn't anything special and I think probably at least 10 years old. Maybe next time we go back the owners will update the mattresses. If they're going to get new mattresses, I recommend a little better qualit such as a thicker mattress or pillow top.

My husband grew up coming to his grandparents beach house at Carolina Beach. This was our first vacation as a family here, and his opportunity to share his childhood experiences with us after 30 years. It has changed a lot, but still feels like home to him. This is a great vacation home that is much larger than what he grew up coming to, but it was a great place to start new traditions. It was clean, great location, kitchen well supplied, BEAUTIFUL view from the deck, quiet beach, great view of the Thurs night fireworks from the beach walkway, nice sized living room for 8 people to relax and enjoy family time, family enjoyed visiting Fort Fisher, the Aquarium, The Boardwalk, Bowman's Seafood (Don't miss this great restaurant for a traditional type seafood experience - we like hushpuppies and fried fish, don't waste your time or money at Michaels), Britt's Donuts, etc... at Carolina Beach... However, there are a few upgrades that would make a HUGE improvement: NEW MATTRESSES (at least 10 years overdue!), window treatments in the bedrooms (blinds were very thin), new light fixtures and/or better lighting in the bedrooms (had to replace bulbs and remove the fixtures in the dark bedrooms to be able to see). Overall this is a wonderful vacation home. With the few mentioned improvements, it would be AWESOME!!! With new mattresses we will book again!

House has lots of character and liked the one level feel. The amenities were just slightly lacking compared to other house that we have stayed in the area for the last 6 years, this includes inside and outside amenities. We purchased and left about 6 beach chairs for the next people that stay. The location was great as it was in the middle between Kure Beach and CB, also the beach was not super crowded for being closer to the high rises. I do have to say though that the mattresses were all pretty much uncomfortable as we had people in all the beds. If the mattresss were updated that we would stay again next year. Let me know if you update them.

Thank you for your review. We shared your suggestions with the owner and they plan on assessing the beds this fall and are definitely replacing the bed in the master bedroom. They also stated that they appreciate the beach chairs, they use to leave them for the guest but the would go missing or rust out so fast that guest were complaining about the condition of them so they decided to let the guest bring their own. We are always glad to get your feedback and look forward to seeing you next year.

Hi Jonathan- thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear about the roaches! The good news is that they were dead or dying, which means that, in essence, the pest control was mostly effective. However, we can certainly understand why that would be a huge turn-off. No one enjoys bugs where they aren't supposed to be. This is a wonderful home, though, which does undergo routine pest control. Thanks again for your comments- we hope to see you back at the beach again soon!

Bare bones, BUT exactly what we were looking for. Has a cozy beach cottage feel to it.

Pros: keyless entry, so no wasting time with having to pick up a key from the rental office.

Cons: I would recommend is for the property to invest in a grill. There is not grill and the upper deck is a great spot hang a cookout on...within fire code of course. The 10am check out time is a bit chinsy, especially when the check in time is 3pm. Unless the property was trashed, it would take more than an hour to clean the property.

I would recommend this place and would stay again.

We really liked this house. It was very spacious and the kitchen was just big enough to cook all of our meals and to store all of our essential food items. We were VERY IMPRESSED that it came with a good blender!

The bedrooms were great and had plenty of storage. The living room was nice and bright, with lots of space. We liked the outdoor shower and porch, as this helped us hose down all of the sand and the kids before entering the house.

The view from the top deck was great and we were able to see the Carolina Beach fireworks from our little boardwalk. Being on the beach was wonderful, especially with three young kids and lots of gear.

The neighborhood was quiet and clean. The one service call I did make got addressed immediately and I was very happy with the service.

The only suggestion would be to replace the mattress in the master bedroom with a harder one. We woke up with sore backs and after two days we switched the mattress in the master bedroom with the one in the adjoining bedroom and what a difference! No more sore backs and a great night's sleep!

We would definitely recommend this to people with young kids and look forward to visiting again in the future.
