A YOUTH is defined as any guest under the minimum renting age (25 years). Lastly, take a moment to peruse our house rules, policies, and rental agreement before confirming your booking. Our aim is to prioritize safety, provide protection, and ensure a smooth and enjoyable getaway for all.

*SUPERVISED YOUTH RESERVATIONS*
No youth reservations, fraternities, school, civic, or other non-family groups are allowed unless Owner grants prior approval.

Supervised Youth Reservations Not Allowed WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL: Any reservation including but not limited to homecoming, graduation, PROM, youth retreats and or outings where MOST occupants are under the minimum renting age 25 years of age.

*LARGE GATHERINGS*
MUST BE APPROVED by HTH Stays prior to booking your reservation.
Looking for an intimate setting to celebrate an anniversary, birthday, retreat or wedding and would like to have additional day guests? If you intend to host day visitors and anticipate surpassing the MAX SLEEPING occupancy of the home at any given time, categorizing your gathering as an "LARGE GATHERING," you must adhere to LARGE GATHERING OBLIGATIONS:
• To proceed with your special large gathering request, a mandatory signed LARGE GATHERING CONTRACT, distinct from the Rental Agreement, is necessary. A non-refundable event fee of $600 applies.
• The total guest count, encompassing both day and overnight guests, should not exceed 28 guests—no exceptions. You will be asked how many of your guests meet the minimum renting age of 25 years.

The property was absolutely fantastic. Everything was wonderful. We had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the dishes and pots and pans you could ever need. The management company even called to check on us during our stay and to see if we needed anything. The view from decks were stunning. We would definitely stay there again

Great Family Room

We enjoyed our Thanksgiving at Feeling Tipsea! The large island was wonderful to have all the family to be able to sit down and eat together, also to play games. The open kitchen/den was nice for everyone to spend time together. The amount of beds was nice, but it was tight with only 3 bathrooms.

Great Experience

We loved our stay at this beach house! It was nice, big, and a lot of fun. Everything has been well taken care of, and we were blown away on first arrival. The traffic on the beach was a little heavy at times with cars and golf carts, but that was about the only negative. We also had 2 trailers park in front of our beach view on the final day, but what can you do, it is a public beach. The house itself was perfect for what we needed! We really enjoyed our stay!

Family reunion

The home was beautiful just like the pictures. We had all ages, 20 of us and we didn't feel crowded all. Having the second floor like a mini apartment was helpful. The weather was great for us even though it rained the majority of the time we were able to spend at the beach as the rain had subsided. We would come back again.

We loved it

The house is in a perfect location, while it’s on the 2nd street away from the beach, it’s actually on the beach (because there’s no properties between you and the waterfront). The view is amazing, the house is very clean with plenty of outdoor entertainment area. The kitchen is huge, and has all the amenities one could need for a gathering. The Master bedroom/bath is nothing short of amazing, especially the large shower, and garden tub. I couldn’t find a single fault other than the check in/check out time, I would like an earlier check in, later check out time, to truly enjoy the space. Otherwise, we look forward to going back in the future.

I was very pleased. I have never rented a beach house (or condo or anything-I’m a hotel person (room service, maid, valet) ) but I have to say I am so happy I did. The house was spotless! I couldn’t even find a burned-out lightbulb. There is nothing to pack but your swimsuit and camera. This was a great experience!
