The home was wonderful but, should not be advertised as a six-bedroom home. One of the bedrooms is a bonus room shared with the master bedroom. This layout would work fine with children. It was inconvenient to share with multiple adults.

Family Gathering

We bring our 3 children and their families to Wrightsville Beach every year or two. This was a great house to congregate in, huge kitchen, lots of bedrooms plus a supply of beach toys. The grandkids really enjoyed having the dock for fishing, crabbing and swimming. This is second year to stay in this house and so far it’s our favorite,

All Under One Roof

Great location, beautiful sunset views from rooftop and of Wrightsville Beach. We had a great time surprising our daughter on her birthday with our family and friends. She loved that we were all able to stay under one roof. The rooms are spacious and the set up of the home is great. We truly had a wonderful extended weekend all together.

Great house but needs new cook top.

Beautiful home with amazing views. House was very clean and well maintained. The only down side was the cook top that only had 2 burners working and the pans were terrible, every thing stuck to them. With a large family to cook for it was disappointing. A House this beautiful with such a huge kitchen should have a functioning cooktop and decent pots and pans
