Completely renovated in 2022. New everything, including kitchen, baths, flooring, paint, furniture and dock. Great canal location with new dock for fishing, boating or jet skis, and don’t forget your kayaks, paddleboards and floats. New kayak launcher installed Spring 2023, makes getting in and out of the kayak oh so easy. Kayaks and life jackets available for use with waiver.

Most excellent Sunset Beach home on canal

From the very start the experience with the owner was thoughtful, kind, and prompt. The home was so well for our large family who cook all meals at “home”. A very convenient walk to the beach and back door access to the canal to kayak, fish, crab if desired! This home is at the top of our list!

Perfect house and location for family gathering

Sea Potential was perfect for our family reunion of 7. There is plenty of room for everyone, different rooms for spreading out, room for the kids to play and a back porch for relaxing while looking over the canal. Location was perfect! Easy walk to beach or Main Street. Kitchen was well stocked with plenty of cutlery, plates, glasses. And Sunset Beach is a favorite of ours: no high rises or condos. Just lovely beach and breezes.

Perfect vacation home

We spent an amazing week in Sea Potential - loads of space but felt so homey! Someone clearly put so much thought into decorating and furnishing the house, as we wanted for nothing. We were so appreciative of Tracey’s regular communication and availability for questions. All around fantastic place - we will definitely recommend it to our friends and would not hesitate to seek it out if we make it back to Sunset Beach!!

Beautiful home!

My extended family enjoyed this beautiful home for 2 weeks. The house appears recently renovated and is tasteful, practical & comfortable. We loved the open concept main area for eating, watching TV, doing puzzles and playing cards. We really enjoyed the screened porch over looking canal as well. We’ve already booked for next year. ❤️

Great place for our 4 grandsons.

House was very nice and had everything we needed. Was unusually cold so we spent most time in the house. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 4 boys 11 and younger. Great table for dining and games. The loft was reserved for the boys! They enjoyed having their own place. You do have to bring your sheets and towels or rent. We used Care Linen service and the items were good quality.

About the host

Hosted by Tracey

Host profile image
My husband and I have four boys, ages 18-37 and two beautiful daughter-in-laws. Our first visit to Sunset Beach was in 1998 and we've never had need for another beach. We especially like sharing Sunset Beach with first time visitors and love seeing them fall in love with our little piece of heaven.

Why they chose this property

Our family has been enjoying Sunset Beach for more than 20 years. We bought on the ocean front back in 2013 but yearned for boat access so we sold our interest in the ocean front property and purchased this house on the canal. We've spent the better part of the last 2 years fully renovating the house, adding the crow's nest and loft, an additional upstairs bathroom, increasing the size of the master bath and updating with all new finishes and appliances. It has been a labor of love and the house is now everything we dreamed it could be. We named the house "sea potential" when we first purchased it because we could "see" the potential. The house had good "bones" and a great location for our watersports and equally important - an easy, quick walk to the beach. We hope you enjoy Sea Potential as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Sea Potential is fully renovated, unlike many canal rentals. The canal location is great for those who want to bring a boat, jet skis or paddleboards. Kayaks are available for renters to use. Fishing or crabbing off the dock is always a fun activity for the kids.

The screen porch, two back decks and crow's nest offer so much outdoor space to enjoy the views and fresh air.
