I stayed here with my husband and three small kids for a week. We loved the cute little house, the convenience to the beach, and the entire stay. This house is just minutes from any store/restaurant in Carolina Beach and only 10 minutes from the Aquarium.

The location was perfect, 2-3 minute walk to the beach. Outside shower was very convenient to ensure sand/debris from the beach was washed off before entering the house. The real plus to our stay was the quietness of the neighborhood and the perfectly working air conditioning. We would definitely stay at this property again in the future. Thank you Delaine and Larry for your prompt response to our inquiries and being a fantastic host!

Perfect spot for a girls weekend.

Absolute adorable house right across the street from a gorgeous well maintained beach. We spent 5 days here celebrating my daughter graduating college. We love the comforts of home when we travel and this house has it all. Very clean, well managed, and had everything you need to cook, but if you wanted to go grab a bite it’s within walking distance or a short drive to so many yummy restaurants, shops, ice cream spots you name it. Cute little area for a walk or jog. So much to do but if you want to just hang at the beach they provided beach chairs and an outside shower to get the sand off after fun day of body surfing. Honestly I could of stayed here all summer. Such a perfect spot. I will definitely stay here again.

Family Affair

This was a good find. The cottage was clean and had two sizable bedrooms with two bathrooms (which is a must for parents with an 18 year-old son). Excellent location. Very close to the beach and walkable to Carolina Beach restaurants. Pretty well equipped kitchen. Just enough space to spread out.
