The place was perfect for my family. At the quiet end of the island, but close to all of the entertainment at the piers. The beach access is just across the road and Fort Fisher is a 10 minute walk. Accommodations for 5 were comfortable and roomy; the front deck is perfect for watching the sunrise and the parking area below the house is private and great for grilling and relaxing.Communication with host was excellent; check in and check out smooth and no problems with the facilities.

Kure Beach rental

Very nice property. House was clean and had everything we needed for a 5 day stay. Excellent access to the beach. Easy walk down to Fort Fisher. There were just 2 of us but the house could have handled a family.

Amazing Rental

The house was decorated as if it was someone's home. The kitchen had everything i needed and then some. For example, there were 3 different sets of 8 plates! The table was for 8 with plenty of elbow room. The living area could seat all of us. The dishwasher, washer, and dryer were full size. The beds were all comfortable. The house is located right across the street from the public access for the beach. If you're looking for nightlife, you have a ways to go. If you're looking to unwind and reconnect with family, it's a perfect place.

Another Great Vacation

Second time staying at this property. As always very clean and well kept property. Shelley is an amazing host. Thank you again for another great place to stay for our week of vacation. Close access to the beach!!. Even though we had more rain then sunshine the house was comfortable for all parties to have their own space waiting out the almost daily rain storms. Thanks again Shelley!

Hoping to Return!

Perfect! The house was sparkling clean, well equipped, well located and plenty of space for three adults and two teen-agers. We especially enjoyed all the covered outdoor spaces. We hope that the owner will save us a space on her calendar for next year!

Very Pleased!

The property was very clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed the covered outside spaces. Three adults and two teens could always find a place to be together or to be alone. Sitting outside in a covered area in the rain was fun. We hope to come again to this house!

Great week at Kure

Check in and out process was super easy, just follow the directions left for you. House was super clean and well stocked with linens and utensils. Great location away from all the hustle and bustle and just a short 2 minute walk to the beach. Only communication with host was via text but she was always nice and personal. Our family throughly enjoyed our week there. Thanks Shelley!

Excellent Location

This house was perfect for our group of six! We had never been to Kure Beach before, and loved how quiet and beautiful it was! This house had amazing beach access and was conveniently located near the Forst Fisher Ferry. The front porch was our favorite hangout at night, and the kitchen/family area was wonderful for our group. I highly recommend this house for your next family vacation!
