We loved our stay! The home was quiet, cozy, and had all the amenities we’d want, including beach equipment to borrow. Conveniently located without being in a busy area.
The property was very well appointed and well maintained. Very spacious accommodations and the host was very good to work with. Communication was prompt. We would absolutely stay here again.
This was our second year staying at this property. Really enjoyed it great price and very convenient to UNCW. The hosts were very communicative and great to work with.
This was our second visit and it was as nice as the first. This is a quiet property and off the beaten path with a lot of personality. It is close to many attractions and shopping. The host was very attentive and helpful. We will try definitely stay again.
Great beach getaway, surprisingly well stocked everything, quiet, affordable, minutes to the beach w/out all the beach madness. Would definitely stay here again!
Our family had such a wonderful time at this property. There is a nice, big back yard that my dog enjoyed running around in. There was nothing that needed to be done. I would highly recommend this awesome property. I was able to meet the owner, who was a great to talk to about local things to do.
We had such a great time! The property is so beautiful, our dogs enjoyed having such a large fenced area to run around in! We absolutely fell in love with Carolina Beach and can’t wait to come back!
House was perfect for our needs. Very clean and comfortable (especially the bed). Had everything we needed. Quiet location and centrally located.
Highly reccomend!
We enjoyed the quietness and peacefulness of the property. It is a wonderful escape from the harried energy of the beach. I highly recommend this property and my family and I look forward to returning.
Such a great property to stay at. On a very quiet road, you'd never know you were only 10 minutes away from the beach! Very nice inside with comfortable beds and a great yard to relax in. Jeff was a great host and allowed us to check out a little later allowing us to enjoy the property for even longer!
We had a great stay. It’s close to the Monkey Junction area and a short commute to Carolina Beach or Wrightsville. It’s tucked away in a nice area with pretty trees in the front yard and a nice, fenced in back yard.
This was the perfect location for a quiet weekend getaway. The home is a nice vintage bungalow, clean and well appointed. Having the fenced in yard made it a great option to bring my dog on the trip. Will definitely stay again!
This house is wonderfully relaxing, restful and was perfect for our stay. Jeff was quick to answer replies and check in/check out was so easy. Every needed amenity was present, the beds were SOOO comfortable (slept great!), and the fresh flowers on the dining room table were such a welcoming sight. This will be our place to stay when we need one in wilmw.

Why they chose this property
We love our laidback quiet neighborhood with all the trees, nature and close proximity to the water. It’s a throwback what coastal neighborhoods used to be like.
What makes this property unique
With the large lot and old great oaks, and private 1 lane road, all makes our property very unique compared to other homes in our county.
