Pros & ConsBefore booking, future guests should know that this home does not provide sheets, towels, trash bags, toilet paper, paper towels, or other basic necessities, so plan accordingly.The biggest positives are the size and location. The home is spacious, with four bedrooms plus additional bunk beds, and it comfortably fit our family of six. It’s in a quiet, safe neighborhood, within walking distance of the beach, and close to the Kure Beach Pier, which was a huge plus.Unfortunately, the home fell short when it came to cleanliness and maintenance. We found dirty dishes in the cabinets, crumbs and residue inside the kitchen drawers and silverware drawer, and soap scum and residue in the tubs and showers. Instead of relaxing after arriving, we had to clean before we felt comfortable using the home.Another major concern was the wasp activity. Although the host informed us the property had been treated prior to our arrival, wasps were still everywhere around the house. Our 6-year-old was stung on the first day, which understandably made her too scared to spend much time outside for the rest of our vacation.This property has the potential to be a fantastic rental because of its size and location. However, it needs a more hands-on owner, better upkeep, and a much more thorough cleaning between guests. If those issues were addressed, I would gladly recommend it.
