Great location, nice accommodations

Overall great stay. We had a a few issues with inadequate silverware and insufficient bath towels for our large group, but both were handled quickly. We had a great stay and overall the place was comfortable and lovely. We were disappointed to arrive to find that one of the bathrooms was under repair leaving us down a shower. We were able to make it work, but with 13 people it was a shuffle.

This weekend owes us nothing

The home was very lovely and spacious. There were numerous places to meditate, enjoy time spent with family, etc. Everything from shoppettes to the pier where within biking or walking distance. The children and adults had a wonderful time biking to the beach.

Hard to beat this house for a vacation rental at Carolina Beach / Kure Beach

This house comes fully stocked with beach gear, bikes, cornhole boards/bean bags and a BBQ. Kitchen and family room are very spacious. Plenty of beds some of which have the sleep number system. Great communication with the property manager, Plenty of restaurants within a few miles of the house. Would love to go back and spend more time there.

Family time at Carolina beach!

House was amazing. Just as pictured. So much room for us all to move around. Neighborhood was very family friendly, we spent evening outdoors playing games. Walk to the beach was easy. House kitchen appliances could use a few updates. We most certainly would recommend this house and area.

This location had plenty of space to accommodate our family trip. It was a short walk to the beach. The porches were very nice and everything was clean.

The property was nice and in a good location. 3 bedrooms are very small. The kitchen and sitting area are spacious and served us really well. The dining table is very sticky. It would have been good if the house was furnished with a few straight chairs. The house has many roaches.
