    I do not use the online booking system, primarily, because I like to work directly with my guests. Not only in the booking process,but also, if they need something, while they are on vacation, in my home. I know it is a great tool, for absentee owners, but I live within 10 minutes of my properties. Once I am contacted, if there is an issue, I can usually have it resolved, or have someone on the way, to take care of it, much quicker, than through an online booking system. Now that being said, I will not bother you on vacation , I promise. lol. Chances, you won't even see me while you are at the beach. I have one 5x repeat, guest, that I just met for the first time this summer. lol Bless her heart, she said I just feel like you are a friend, and want to put a face to the emails and calls. lol On the other hand, if you were here and there was a problem, (rarely happens), you can reach me direct.. You do not have to worry about a 1-800 number ,being put on hold,or talking to a computer. I know a lot of folks have a concern, about guarantees etc. I understand that. Please take a look at my reviews, I think, my guests, say it best, how I do business. Thanks. Now I have August weeks. odd dates,weekends, and weeks left open. Labor Day weekend is also still open. it won't be for long though. Fall is coming, Couples and retirees, please think about September and October for

    your beach vacation. That is my favorite beach time. Water is still in the 80s, through mid-October to November. Carolina Beach keeps lifeguards on duty, until Oct 1. Beaches are uncrowded, because the kids are back in school. The fishing Wow ! Spots start running in Oct. Nov fish are still being pulled in. They are big, because they are fattening up for the winter months. Summer is great, but if you have a flexible schedule, the fall is so awesome for a beach vacation. Oh and if you are a pet owner? Dogs are allowed on the beach now, after 5 pm. Dogs are allowed on all beaches here 24 hours a day after October 1. Make those plans now ! I am having trouble updating my VRBO calendar. I do it, but it doesn't block the dates. So please double check with me for available dates. I do not update the vrbo calendar Also if you can do a weekday beach trip I have a lot of odd dates open,and can give you awesome deals on these odd weekdays. These deals are going fast. I am going to update my odd dates open below right now and will do so weekly

    With some of these weekday specials above, i can also do long weekends, since there are a few weekends left open in August. Please check for August dates. July is full, and August is starting to get activity now as well. Email for pricing. It really depends on how many dates you need and when. Thank you all so much. God bless you.

    About Gail Longnecker

    Local owner. My husband and I had lived in the area our whole lives. Both born and raised here. Sadly I lost my David after 30 short happy years of marraige, to stage 4 cancer. This happened in late 2015, and it was a very unexpected diagnosis and loss. We were both in the prime of our life. I only had him a short year after his diagnosis. During his illness, so many of our repeat guests prayed for our family. Even to the point, some gave our teenage son rides back and forth from UNC hospital, when they would come from the triangle area for a beach visit in our condos. We stayed with my husband at UNC Those wonderful guests though, gave our son a weekend break, without me having to leave my David alone. They were just angels, at a time I needed them the most. After David passed, I was advised financially to sell the home we shared together, and our rentals, if I was going to be able to survive. There was some insurance, but all of this was so sudden and David had been working full time. I know this is more information than you probably need about me. Taking care of our rentals, was something we did in the summer on weekends together. I prayed about it,after I lost David. Last summer, I decided before, I sold them and especially the home we shared together. An unbearable thought to me. I decided I would try renting these places on my own for one summer, and see if I could make it. With God's grace and so many repeat and new guests, I was able to keep our home and our rental properties. I did make a few changes. We also own a 4 bedroom beach house. After last summer, I turned it into a longterm rental. It was just too much for me to handle, with so many people checking in and checking out at once. Even as I have grieved my David, I am so thankful for my guests. They email me often to see how things are going, and how I am doing. When they come for a visit, it is like old friends returning, not just folks renting from me. Thank you and God bless you

    Gail Longnecker purchased this Condo in 2013

    Why Gail Longnecker chose Carolina Beach

    We fell in love with condo, and location the minute we walked in it in early 2013. I have several repeat guests, that come every summer. Being in a smaller condo complex, is also nice. Beach access is right across the street. The crosswalk, has a flashing sign. Push the button, the sign flashes, and traffic stops, for beach guests, to cross the street to the board walked beach access. The pool is right behind the complex also.

    What makes this Condo unique

    cute, cute, cute ! Tiki Bar right across the street, with restaurant. You can eat inside, or go out on the remains of the restaurant/ tiki bar pier, and eat, right above the waves. If you have a little too much ,as far as beverages, no worries, about driving. Your condos, is right across the street. Wide sandy beach with boardwalk access,is also right across the street. No walking on hot sand, or going through overgrowth etc, to get to the beach. It even has a ramp, for those who want to avoid stairs. The swimming pool is right out back. You come off the beach, hot and sticky, no worries, take a cool dip in the pool,before you go upstairs, to the condo. When you get in the condo, kick off your shoes, get a cool drink and relax !! You are at the beach now :)
