Reviewer Comments:
Pros Location, interior design, management company (responsive about stained bedspread, missing window curtain) Cons Poor grounds maintenance: accumulated leaves and dirt in the carport, bocce court and outdoor shower; overgrown weeds in grill area. This is the least well maintained exterior on the block. Outdoor shower is just a shower head on the exterior wall--no enclosure and area is dirty Roaches--killed more than 10 during our stay--mentioned to property company but no follow up Tenant downstairs--a delightful person but this is not prominently highlighted--bocce court is right outside her door and laundry is shared Overall--a nice little place but not up to the standards of other Wrightsville properties--more rustic and overpriced for what it was.

We had a great week at Bocce cottage. We were two adults with four young adults (two 20 yr olds and two 17 yr olds). The cottage is in a great location, just a short walk to the beach or the bay, almost at the tip of the south end. We rented two kayaks for the week and it was easy to take them back and forth to the bay. Also, the beach at this end of the island is extremely quiet. The cottage is very cute and nicely decorated. The description did not make it clear that the room with the king-size bed shares a bathroom with the room with the bunk beds. The queen-size room has an ensuite bathroom. It worked for us, but would have been helpful to know ahead of time. When we arrived the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes, so we let Intracoastal know their cleaning people should have checked this. We also found a half-eaten sandwich under the bed in one of the rooms, so clearly the cleaners took a couple of short-cuts. The kitchen is fairly well equipped, although we did very little cooking - there are so many great dining options within a close distance. The covered porch was great - having a dining table out there is a nice touch. Because it's on an interior street there is very little traffic so it's nice and peaceful sitting out there. Inside, the living space is fairly small - if we had little kids on a rainy day it might feel a little claustrophobic, but we spent very little time inside because the weather was so beautiful. Overall, a great week and we will likely come back to Bocce Cottage.

I love the decor at bocce cottage. The size is perfect for our family of 6. We love the location. But the washer hardly worked last summer and this one I could only wash about 6 pieces of laundry at a time to make sure it was clean. I noticed some new kitchen items. But not all of the kitchen electrical outlets worked. The one that did had a button I needed to reset hidden behind appliances. There weren't any extra blankets. For the price we are paying per week it is a little unrealistic to only have 1 parking spot. Last year we were not aware of the one spot until the renter downstairs blocked it. This year it was in our paperwork and the renter was very sweet. We would love to stay here again next year but when the lights are on in the kitchen and family room and your trying to make popcorn in the microwave and the breaker blows 3 times... it's a little frustrating.

House was in a great location within walking distance to beach and sound, and appears to have been recently renovated and the furniture seemed pretty new. The beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the bocce court. The house seemed to be lacking some basic items, though. There were only four hangers in the whole house. There were only a small number of spoons, and no serving spoons. There were not enough coffee cups, wine glasses or regular drinking glasses. There were no potholders. Place would be great if these small things were taken care of.

The house was great with lots of open room and a variety of sitting spaces. Loved the outdoor wrap around porch! Good location with easy beach access. Well stocked with all needs. It was perfect for a birthday reunion.

The place was amazing and so close to the beach. The inside was beautiful with exposed beams, a perfect beach cottage. I had a great time there and I cant wait to come back.
