We own other ocean view homes in Ocean Lakes House #MH18B which sleeps 12 and is lake front with ocean vistas; and VRB0#1501208/House #1031 our freshly build 6 bedroom next door to this home (1023), and ocean front #`1119, Vacation Rental By Owner#1313785.

Our home is entirely furnished. There is ample parking for up to 5 cars (Parking fee of $12 per car per day, charged by OL). I rent my golf cart in addition). This is a GREAT home for extended family vacations. We are dog friendly for $100 per dog/per week fee.

Ocean Lakes Family Resort offers mini golf (nominal fee), skate park (complimentary), NEW (seasonal) water slide and water park with lazy river (complimentary to use), and swimming pools (one indoors) with a tot splash zone. The beach is complimentary to use and is manned with lifeguards. The average ocean water temperature in summer is 85 degrees.

There are nightly family activities at the Rec Center (check the calendar for scheduled events). One of the most unique activities our family LOVES is the nightly golf cart parade. Guests decorate their golf carts and slowly drive up and down the main strip by the beach. Each cart you pass the kids do a “high five” with the passing cart. Although a difficult event to describe, once your family does it, you too, will be hooked.
Our family has been visiting here for 10 years in our RV. We adore it so much, we purchased five rental beach homes so your family can experience this hidden gem of a family resort, too.

Your Saturday to Saturday rental (seasonal) in our home will include all the amenities of Ocean Lakes. Our home is a non-smoking, clean, comfortable and secure environment. We supply complimentary wireless internet. We also offer our personal golf cart for rent at $475 per week (seasonal) (must be over21 and licensed to drive). Ocean Lakes also rents golf carts at a rate of $488 per week.

Please note: This is our family home. We prefer to only rent to other families as this is what our home is set up for. We do not rent to anyone under 25 years old or enormous, non-family member groups.

We encourage you to return the same week year after year and we will hold your week up to 13 months in advance. Please contact us if your desired week is already booked on this reservation calendar. We may have another home that is available.

Thank you!

With warmest regards,

Steve & Jen Heicklen

Strategies for getting the perfect Myrtle Beach vacation property experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• In the Myrtle Beach area, The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Booking your vacation home in Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Myrtle Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Myrtle Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and choose yourrental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Few dates left OCEANFRONT 6 BDRM IN OCEAN LAKES! has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a certain Myrtle Beach beach you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
