You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

MASSIVE oceanfront home perfect for families!

Bring the whole family down and watch this "Smile Maker" put a grin on everyone's face. You'll have plenty of room to spread out and relax as you take in the spectacular views and enjoy the private walkway to the wide and beautiful beach. Only 8 blocks to the middle of the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, you can stroll out for a nice dinner, catch the Thursday Night fireworks and amble back down the beach when you're done.

There are 7 parking spots, 4 of which are in the double garage. The owner also provides an extra Refrigerator/Freezer down there. Upstairs, on the main level you'll find the kitchen with Stainless appliances, granite counters, and a butcher block island. The dining table seats 8, plus 5 barstools at the island.

Also on the main level are 2 bedrooms, one with a Queen and on suite bathroom and the second with 2 sets of Twin bunks. A second full bathroom on this level is accessible from the common area. The laundry center is also nearby.

On the second floor you'll find a wet bar with mini-fridge, microwave and sink. A generous seating area is featured here, along with 3 more bedrooms. First is a King with large private bathroom and walk-in shower. Two more bedrooms, each with a Queen bed, that share a bathroom complete the layout. Of course there are beautiful decks to take in the salt air and gorgeous views. Be on the lookout for a pod of dolphins playing close by!

The third floor is setup for lots of kids, so bring all of the cousins and their friends if you want. You'll find 4 sets of Twin bunks and a foosball table, along with the most majestic sunrise views. In addition, there are two top floor bedrooms, one with a Queen and the other with a Queen and a Twin. Naturally there is a full bathroom to service this level.

Annual Family Beach Trip

The location of this house can’t be beat. A short walk over the dunes and your feet are in the Atlantic! Our family of 13 fit great — there are plenty of beds throughout the house. We had a couple of minor issues — two fans not working, a sliding door with a loose handle — and Bryant was responsive, although the timing of the fix did not align with our stay. Overall a great experience— given the numbers of people that the house accommodates, I would add some silverware (forks, in particular) and larger cooking vessels. We had an awesome trip and the beachfront vacation cannot be beat!

Could’ve been nice

This home was not clean. Floors were filthy, furniture was dusty and bedsheets had not been changed on a couple of the twin beds(food and hair). Sliding glass door lock on main level broke. Kitchen had ants. There was wide black tape on the steps and floor of the main level all of which was so aesthetically unpleasant and quite disappointing given the rental price of this home.

Larage oceanfront property

It is a wonderful space. We had 5 families, two with children, and the space allowed us to be together or in small groups or on the beach as each person wanted. There were a few minor maintenance issues but overall it was clean, comfortable, and we had a great week!
