Captain's Quarters; Spacious Main Floor Suite of Classic 1940's Beach House

Enjoy fresh breezes from the ocean just 1/2 block east of the ocean or watch sunsets over the sound only one short block west of Banks Channel, while rocking on the porch of this classic 1940's Beach Cottage. Our location is ideal, just 5 blocks from the center of town or 5 blocks from Mercer's Pier to equal a quick 10 minute walk in either direction! The whole has just been renovated with new porch decks, roofs, railings and outside stairs along with an entire front facade facelift! The kitchen is open to the spacaious living room and is well equipped with all your cooking needs. This main floor suite features two bedrooms (1 Queen and 1 Twin), and a single bath. Our large living room hosts two areas, one with a queen sleeper sofa in the TV area, as well as a 4 person game table and ornamental fireplace. The open bar to the kitchen works wll as a buffet counter with kitchen equipment storage behind. A separate dining area seats 6. This charming and comfortable house has a spiral stair leading to the top floor suite that can be rented in conjunction (if availability allows) for larger groups! Please find and copy the link to the whole house to see the calendar here: http://www.vrbo.com/icalendar/d0dcf1ddc9124f9db688fd506b97e9bd.ics
You will love the new outdoor shower with hot and cold water just under the outside staircase to rinse off along with a second more private shower option underneath in the laundry area which is equipped with two sets of washer and dryers. We provide our guests beach equipment including, chairs, umbrellas, a sturdy beach cart, and boogie boards! Our guests belongings have plenty of space to be safely locked in the basment floor at night. When not at the beach, take a break and relax in the garden swing or grill out in the fenced-in backyard. Each floor has TWO designated parking spaces. There is ample off-street parking is in front of the house if your group has more than two vehicles. Our property manager lives nearby in Hampstead and can respond to your needs in a timely fashion.

We have stayed here the last 2 Memorial Day weekends. Great place with well stocked kitchen. Beds are comfortable and the living area, dining, sitting, and kitchen provide a great open floorplan feel were you can spread out. The front deck and stairs have just been redone and provide nice outdoor relaxation for coffee in the AM while enjoying the rocking chairs. Great host and communication too!

Clean and Convenient

We had a wonderful stay. This property was by far the cleanest beach property we have ever stayed at. We were there Easter weekend and the back yard was perfect for our egg hunt and we had a very short walk to the Easter morning service on the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

Well equipped and spacious living areas.

We had stayed at the 3 bedroom upstairs unit before but enjoyed the downstairs 2 bedroom unit more. It’s more of an open floorplan with more living area to spread out. Kitchen was very well equipped. Our 10 year found the pull out couch very comfortable with a memory type mattress. Great place to vacation!

Had an excellent time in this wonderful rental. The house was very clean and spacious. Located 6 houses from what felt like a private beach and walking distance to restaurants and small grocery store. Owner/property manager were exceptional in their quick response and very accommodating to our request for earlier check-in. Highly recommend this rental. Looking forward to another visit!

The Captain’s Quarters at the Pink House was just right for our group of one couple and two friends. We loved the generous porch and rocking chairs. It is a short walk to the beach at the end of the street and less than 10 minutes to downtown’ Wrightsville Beach. It has a nice open floor plan. The downstairs warm shower was perfect to rinse off san and salt. We definitely made daily use of beach chairs and umbrella. Ryan and Kelly responded right away and took care of all of our requests and needs - thank you. We hope to come back.

Enjoyed our stay. House had everything we needed. Could have left some beach gear at home, because they supplied it all- towels, chairs, umbrella, boogie boards… Location was awesome! Thankful for comfy pullout couch as we learned (reminded) that 6’3” college kid doesn’t really fit a twin anymore! Love Wrightsville and this location!
