Awesome Stay!

We loved staying at this beach cottage! My sister and I stayed for a weekend get-away and it was fantastic. The hosts had everything we could need including a cooler/wagon/towels/beach blanket/chairs/umbrella. Hosts were responsive with our questions and very friendly. The property is beautiful, with nicely kept gardens throughout. Cottage is quiet and a few blocks to the beach. Will definitely be staying here again. Don't hesitate to book!

10/10, Will Stay Again!

The property owner was very communicative & clear about the check in process. The property was gorgeous!! Very clean, very private, very beautiful, & very close to restaurants, bars, & the beach. It rained the entire weekend so we couldn’t take advantage of the bikes or the buggy, beach chairs, etc provided by the property owner but we will be back in the spring!! :)

Pleasant stay

We really enjoyed our stay. This property is close to the beach but away from the noisy boardwalk. It's very quiet at night. The room is very clean and well decorated. They provided bath towels, beach towels, bed sheet, and even beach umbrella, chairs and bicycles. We had a lot of fun riding the bike in the Island Greenway. The property owner Mark is very nice, responsive and easy to communicate. He provided detailed information which makes the check-in very simple. My family had a great time at the beach and we will definitely stay again when we go to the Carolina Beach next time. They are very considerate
