"All About the Views" is ON THE WATER - one block walk to the Beach Side!

Enjoy the most amazing SUNSETS from the Gazebo! This unit is certainly "All About the Views"! Come enjoy this recently renovated spectacular home ON THE SOUND w/ a 55-foot Boat dock! Looking for easy boat access with just a one block walk to the beach? Then look no further because this is the right home for you. (*Please note, although pet friendly, there is a pet fee. Please click "I am traveling with pets" under the amount of travelers when booking. We allow 2 dogs max, no cats due to allergies)

We are a four-bedroom, three full bath home well-equipped to host you and your extended family. This is the spot for the most serene sunsets you will ever see on the island. A large gazebo is available to use at your leisure. You can't beat dinners or cocktails right on the water! (If stairs are an issue for any of your guests, this home may not be the right fit. We unfortunately do not have elevator access.)

The main entrance of this home leaves you an abundance of storage for your coolers, beach chairs, life jackets, fishing gear, crab traps, etc. We also offer an outdoor shower with both hot and cold water to rinse off after a day at the beach. Although our unit "technically" has 5 parking spots, we recognize that the parking is tight and only advertise 4 so that your larger vehicles will fit more comfortably. (Please do not park more than 4 cars, including trailers. Please no parking in other units spaces.)

The first floor of this home boasts two nicely sized bedrooms & a full bath. The first bedroom has a Queen Bed & 50" Smart TV + Spectrum Cable throughout home. This room has a private deck with Adirondack seating to enjoy the intercostal water views. The second bedroom on this floor offers a Full bed w/ Twin over bunk bed + an extra Full bed & 42" Smart TV. A full-sized laundry room is also available on this floor!

On the second floor, you will find an open, spacious family room, dining area & kitchen. The dining area offers seating for 8 at the table with 4 additional seats at the bar counter. The kitchen boasts lovely ocean views. It is well-equipped with everything you need to dine in if you choose! The family room is comfortably furnished with a large sectional couch plus a 65" flat screen Smart TV. We offer guests complimentary internet access during their stay. The family room deck is a favorite spot to enjoy amazing intercoastal & sunset views on our Adirondack chairs. (Fireplace is not operational.)

The third floor has two more bedrooms w/ vaulted ceilings. The Primary Suite is equipped with a King Bed, large walk-in closet, full bath w/ stand up shower & a large tub. (Jets in tub are not operational.) This bedroom also has a private deck w/ intracoastal views + a 55" Smart TV. We recently also added a coffee station to the primary bedroom. The second guest bedroom on this floor has both ocean & canal views with a King bed, walk-in closet, 55" Smart TV + plus private full bath.

There is both paddleboards & Kayaks for you to enjoy during your stay! All are located in the backyard to the left of the unit on the wooden rack behind our parking. There are multiple kayaks and two paddleboards. (We now share paddleboards and kayaks with unit 2 so paddleboards may be next door.) Please remember to put them away after using and store upside down so they don't take on water. Please remember that we only have access to park a boat on one side of the dock. (Life jackets are not included.)

Just a one-mile walk to the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, 100 Feet walk to the Starfish Beach access & a half mile walk to Freeman Park & the Pier. We think you will agree, this is the location that has it all.

NOTE: Canal Drive floods during strong storms, mostly during a high tide, full moon. The bottom level is a maritime grade hallway and is designed for the water to escape when it recedes. Only items that can get wet should be stored here. Please see information inside unit for helpful app to help navigate high tides. (If stairs are an issue, this is not the right unit for you or your guests.)

Beautiful home with amazing views. Great host and quick to respond to questions. Please remember to bring beach chairs, life jackets for paddle board or kayak, beach towels, extra paper towel and toilet paper. The beach is a very easy walk. Early morning walks are recommended. Set up your beach area early as well. There is a store walking distance and they do sell good breakfast sandwiches. We loved the dock and used for Tritoon boat rental or fishing. The grill is in good shape and shared with 3 other units. No complaints about the rooms from any of our guests. One last note, make sure everyone coming is healthy enough to use the stairs often during each day.

This property is a 3-story townhome, end unit. Super clean, furnishings are all relatively new including all beds. Kitchen has newer appliances (LG range takes some practice to decipher controls and the timers will beep incessantly). Plenty of dishes, flatware and cooking utensils. All sound facing bedrooms have excellent roller blinds. Dock access and included water sports were great. Owner was very communicative. This might not be the place for you if you don’t like climbing stairs. Also you are in a tightly built area and lots of street noise. Highly recommend.

We booked the house for Thanksgiving and my fathers 80th birthday. Easily fit the entire family and was the perfect spot. There was always something to do with the location and the access to fishing rods and kayaks. I would highly recommend this place.

Beautiful location

We stayed here for a tournament with a bunch of teenagers and we had the best time! Being right on the canal with kayaks and paddleboards available and that awesome deck is what made our trip. Also a very short walk to the beach with ocean and canal views from the top floor made the location our favorite part of the trip. Rooms were plenty big for us all and kitchen was well stocked. Host responded quickly to any of our questions. I have a 3 star for cleanliness because some clothing items were left behind from the previous renter in the bathroom and sand still in the tub. Reported it to the host and they were receptive. Seemed like it might have been a one off thing with the cleaning crew.

Best Sunsets

Our stay was amazing! The house was super clean, well-stocked, and very conveniently located for the beach and inter-coastal waterway. You can see both bodies of water from the house. The sunsets were quite spectacular from the balcony. It was very peaceful and relaxing for three generations of family to stay. Jay, the owner, was extremely responsive and super helpful. Especially, when the four year old locked the bathroom door with no one in it and we were at a loss on how to get it open. 😊 They also had the house decorated for the holidays which made it feel very special. You cannot go wrong by staying here! We will definitely be back.
