wonderful visit!

My daughter and I loved this house and the convenient location. Our dogs loved the nice back yard. The house was VERY well equipped, clean, charming and an incredibly short walk to the beach, a convenience store (great coffee!), shopping and restaurants. The air conditioner in the side room broke and the Keurig broke but otherwise it was great. I would recommend 100%!

I almost don’t want to tell people how good it is to stay here so it wont be booked all the time but here it is- Location, location, location! 3 short blocks ( 3 minute walk) from the beach restaurants, Kure fishing pier, located in a quiet residential area. Pictures online and description are accurate. Check in was a breeze- the rental mgr communicated in advance regarding check in codes, and what is expected on departure day. Kitchen is well-equipped, even has a crockpot, keurig. Dishwasher, washing machine and dryer on site were a Godsend! Clean house, did not need to use 2nd bedroom but really nice to have to place beach gear suitcases, etc. Fenced i yard was very much appreciated for our 2 doggies. We felt really safe and relaxed staying here. We will definitely book with this rental mgr again!

Literal Perfect Place to Stay at the Beach

At just a couple blocks away from ANYTHING you could want in Kure Beach, this was the perfect place to stay. We walked to the pier, beach access, a number of local restaurants, the arcade...not to mention, having a 2 & 3 year old with us, it was equidistant the other direction to the playground (and pickleball courts!) The home itself is exactly what you need if traveling with family and a dog(s). Fenced in back yard was wonderful, well kept, and perfect for kiddos and pups to run around. Kitchen and appliances are top notch. Beds were comfortable. Definitely feel like we got our money's worth during our stay. Will be back again!

Had a great time!

We’ve stayed in another house previously and we were sad to see that it was not available for our trip this year. We went with this house instead and were very happy! The house was perfect for our family. The dog loved having the back yard to run around. Checking in was easy, and the realty company was easy to communicate with. The home was clean and the beds were comfortable. Even though it is a smaller house, it had a second bathroom which was a nice bonus. The house was close to everything and there are several food options nearby. We had a great visit and would look at this home again next time we are at Kure Beach!

This was our second stay at this house, unfortunately not as good as the first! It was nasty, the smell of urine was evident, it was like the place got a once over and done! Nasty underneath the furniture like it was never moved, ever! You shouldn't have to come on vacation and spend money on Febreeze and candles and cleaning supplies to get it bearable.....did i mention the dog hair? ugh!

Perfect Stay

The cottage was as promised: clean, well-stocked, tasteful decor without being too kitschy. The walk to the beach was easy although I chose to drive and park at a beach access a bit farther from the pier. The backyard was safe/secure and I was able to let my pup to have outdoor time. As a note there is one gap in the back of the shed that allows a smaller dog to crawl under. The main bathroom is pretty tight, however the 2nd bath/shower in the closed sunroom was larger. Maybe a bit of attention to the shower heads in both are in order. I brought a ton of stuff for a 6night stay and I could have left it at home. Linens were good quality and the kitchen has everything!! I have to say the neighbors and folks at the pier, coffee shop, hardware store, etc. were super friendly. I really enjoyed the house and Kure beach for the 5th annual beach vacation.

This property was PERFECT for us. It had everything we needed and more from cookware to the little things that you wouldn't even think about bringing. The shed in the back has a beach wagon, a kiddie pool that my kids loved to play in with a bunch of beach toys that we took to the beach. Nice setting area outside. The owners even left us dryer sheets and pods to do our laundry. The inside was very cozy and extremely nice and clean. It felt like home to us. It's within walking distance of the pier and the oceanfront park, so we didn't even have to drive anywhere. It has an outside shower, so when you come back from the beach you can rinse off before you go into the house. We will definitely be renting this again the next time we vacation at the beach.

Pictures are deceiving

The “front door” was the sliding glass door that didn’t open or close properly. Maintenance had to come out and fix it. The refrigerator had a constant puddle coming out of the bottom of it. The air conditioning unit leaked from the condensation and made a puddle on the floor. Mattresses are awful.

Although the home was small, it was well appointed and the decor was charming. The backyard was a great feature for our dog. There were a few issues-- very minor. The dishwasher needs to be serviced, as sometimes dishes come out of it looking worse than they went in. The washing machine has a foul smell. The refrigerator had a little water leak and needed to have the air filter changed. The advertising claims that the house sleeps 7. While there may be room for 7 to lie down, a group of 7 would be greatly overcrowded and would probably not enjoy themselves.
