Relaxing

Reviewed by 4456/664456
First of all dealing with Lachicotte was very professional. Any problems or questions that we had were answered very quickly and professionally. The home was perfect for our 4 month stay on Pawley's Island. Big enough for the 2 of us , and the times we had company but not too large. The location between the beach and creek was almost perfect. It could only have been better if we were directly on the beach. Haines 222 is an older beach house that has been modernized in many ways but retains it's beach house charm. If you are looking for a big fancy rental, this is not for you. If you want comfort and charm , this is the place. In addition the house is less than a mile from rt. 17 where anything anyone could want or need are located, without the hustle and bustle of Myrtle Beach. The restaurants in the area vary from burger and beer type to very nice places to eat. Our favorites were: Island Cafe & Deli,Pawleys Island Tavern, aka the pit, Bistro222, Hanser House, Pastaria 217,and 2 Mexican restaurants close by. There are 4 supermarkets within a couple of miles north and south on 17 but make sure you try the Fresh Market, for a shopping experience. There are about a dozen topnotch golf courses within a few miles of Haines also, if you're a golfer. All in all it was a perfect location.

Shabby, with little redeeming charm.

This is an older Pawley's house, which is fine, but the palmetto bugs were out of control; the boardwalk was rotting; the throw rugs in one room had clearly been used to rest crab pots on; small things were broken and in disrepair all over. The management company was slow to respond. How long had it been since the owners visited?

Fantabulous place for a family of 4!

Pre Hugo Feeling

Reviewed by mcecil5577
What a perfectly charming beach cottage! Loved the pre Hugo feel as it is not an enormous glamour home and with the feeling of a well loved family home! Very comfortable and nicely laid out with good kitchen supplies and 2 flat screen TVs. Front screen porch had a large dining table and comfy seating, back porch was shady.2 birdfeeders in back which I kept filled and enjoyed the many different birds each a.m. Enjoyed fishing off the private creek dock, which was a nice change from the beach when the weather became too hot or drizzly. I have a special needs child and appreciated everything being on one floor and not many high steps to climb with her. Lachicotte Realty were a pleasure to deal with and were very accomodating! Hoping to stay 3 weeks in 2011. A+++!

Arrogantly Shabby!

Our initial impression was that the cleaning service "overdid" it with the chemicals. There was a very strong chemical odor for the first day that did bother my daughters asthma. After the first day the odor was gone. The house itself was very charming, loved the decor, beds were very comfy, and bedding was clean. The kitchen was adequately furnished. The crab dock was very convenient for our love of fishing. We highly recommend Haines 222 if you don't care to be off the ocean or the creek. We were hoping for a creek view which we didn't have. We have always stayed on the ocean front and were hoping for the serenity of the creek for this visit.

Quiet and Peaceful Week at the Beach

We needed to get away and relax. Pawleys Island and Haines 222 provided the perfect place. The house sits in a grove of trees that makes it feel secluded and private. At the same time, the beach is seconds away. And if you don't appreciate the hustle and bustle of the beach, you can slip away to the private dock on the marsh, just out the back door.

Old Fashioned Cottage - Great Location

Reviewed by joanne_pittore
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and this location is fantastic. Now for the bad news...After a 15 hour road trip, we arrived to find no hot water at the house. The management company was pleasant and tried to be responsive, but problem was not corrected until 36 hours later and required re-wiring of the circuit for the electrical hot water heater, with no financial concession offered. Obviously, this should have been checked prior to our arrival. We also encounted a toilet problem requiring a plumber's attn. Bathrooms are antiquated and require gut rehabs. Kitchen is modern and well supplied with dishes, pots, pans, etc. House's interior is small and on one level. Porches are nice and the private dock on the creek is pleasant for relaxing. We were charged a non-refundable premium for bringing our small dog on the vacation.
