We rented magnolia for our yearly couples trip. We loved it! The home is beautiful, spacious, and very well equipped. There is an ice machine that was a nice little bonus. A lot of added extras. The home is a very short beach walk that is not over crowded at all. Short drive to anything you need. Holiday isle check in was so simple. Definitely recommend!! ##### Tracy C. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa C., Snellville, Ga 25 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay! The house is spacious and comfortable. We loved the little extras like the ice maker, wagon, ice cream maker, etc. We will definitely stay here again. ##### Melissa C. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sue M. 21 Oct 2023 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Did not meet our expectations. Location is good. Beach wagon and chairs provided. Furniture in living room is uncomfortable. Ice machine was moldy. Swimming pool was dirty. Pool chairs were broken. Naked pole lamp in the living room. Ants by the pool. Dirty outdoor grill. Weeds growing everywhere outside including swimming pool area. Missing ball for pool table. Only one key for 7 people to use for beach access. ##### Sue M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sharla B. 26 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Vacation We enjoyed our stay. The walk to the beach wasn't too bad, however, we did bring a couple of wagons, which I highly recommend. The game room was nice. There was only one of the arcade games that worked and there was only one pool cue that had a tip, but thankfully my husband packed a handy little kit and he fixed two other pool cues and added new tips for the next occupants. Our overall stay was nice and relaxing. ##### Sharla B.
