What houses are available for non-family/college student groups?

I have a group of very responsible friends that are interested in renting a beach house for a week in summer 2011. We have been going to North Myrtle beach the past 3 years since that is the only vacation spot we knew of for non-family/student groups. Quite frankly, we are sick of driving 8 hours to find that our house is disgusting due to rental companies giving the "student rentals" the grossest houses out there. We have put up with cock roaches, uncleanliness, etc. We are not a crazy bunch of kids that have never been away from mom and pop, we are 20 years old and up. We are responsible, respectful, trustworthy, etc. We don't cause trouble. All we want to do is have a week at the beach so we can take a break from working and going to school everyday.
