We were impressed by the professional and friendly interactions we had with the young adults who set up and broke down the cabanas each day. Sadly, we will not use them again after finding out that there was no refund possibility for the rainy days when they were unable to set up the cabana. I hope they will consider revising their policy for future clients.

She said it would be by 9pm then we got a call saying there was a glitch and they overbooked. No carts available and I have to add her rude phone tone.

Each day our umbrella was in the same location right off the public access and UP by 9AM & down by 5PM. No hassles! Pleasant to speak with Madi and our Umbrella "Fellow" were also very courteous to some of our older crew in needing a "hard sand" situation. I heard he was out that morning nearest the high-tide water-line "making sure" hard sand would enable them to also enjoy the beach!! Locally owned & operated for many years!

We were very disappointed with the service from Beach Boys Cabanas and we cannot recommend them to…read moreanyone. We experienced several unusually windy beach days, not a problem. One of these days, they didn't bring the umbrellas at all, not a problem. The problem arose when on one windy day, they arrived at 2:30pm to not only take away our umbrellas, which were down and not in use due to the wind, but they collected all 8 of our chairs too, leaving us nothing at all. Most of us didn't arrive until 1pm or later, so most of us didn't really get to use our chairs at all. The crazy part was that they gave us a bunch of attitude like we were out of line being there, and they grabbed our chairs so quickly that we had to stop them and ask, can we at least collect our cellphones from the pockets? Go elsewhere. My sister who was on this trip also, is a licensed travel agent, so she is going to handle this on her end too, with an appropriate negative write up like this one. It's deserved.

Understandable since our boardwalk stopped a few feet before the beach. Since a couple of our group had issues, making it hard for them to walk, I called Blake and mentioned it to him. He apologized and said he would be sure it was in the proper spot the next day. It was exactly right every day after that. Very nice young men who aim to please.

Since it is off-season but a beautiful day we decided to try and go kayaking. After checking several locations we found Blue Planet Watersports. They were absolutely amazing! They are all about customer service. The owner actually loaded the kayak into our truck himself and helped tie it down with bungee cord. Since it is the off season, he gave us a great deal AND gave us several locations for us to check out. Not being from the area, having private access and options is an absolute plus. My husband and I loved the personal service and would recommend to anyone looking to check out water sport rentals. 10++

So I asked one of the moms videotaping her kids, "Who is the company giving these lessons?' I jumped on their website, texted the number there and got our 11 year old signed up for a private lesson for the very next day. Sydney was a lovely and patient instructor. The owner was there, too, very polite and organized and I paid with Venmo right there on the beach. And my son who had never surfed before got up about 40 times in his 90 minute lesson. Beaming and joyful. I 100% recommend Carolina Surf. And I am so glad we found them!

I had questions about a pinpointer that I was looking to buy and was referred to LMS by a friend. My friend could not have been more right. Like so many businesses these days, I was expecting to have to get through an automated system to speak with a live person. I called LMS and much to my surprise the call was answered by a real person on the first ring. Not only was it a real person I was greeted by Mike the owner of LMS. Mike answered all of my questions and gave me a great deal on the pinpointer along with free shipping. LMS ships fast too. Not long after I hung up I got an email confirmation along with a link to track my purchase. The pinpointer was to arrive on a Tuesday however it got delivered three days earlier. LMS is a First Class company and I couldn't be more pleased with the whole experience. I will be looking forward to doing business with LMS in the future.

I asked him abt the "moral dilemma" of finding lost treasures that happened so recent. He was quick to respond and let me know there is actually a group of local treasure hunters whose main objective is finding aforementioned "lost treasures."

I just want to commend him and "them" for the little society of helpers they have. It is truly amazing.
