Great Beach House

My family and I enjoyed our stay. Walking distance to the beach and close distance to groceries/restaurants/stores. The only downside is theres only one full bathroom in the house. Owner was very responsive which was a huge plus! Highly recommend!

4th of July fun

We enjoyed our 4 night stay at Bacon on the Beach. Its a lovely cottage with a lot of character. Feels welcoming and it was super clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Easy short walk to the beach. Jolly Roger Restaurant is close by and our favorite breakfast spot. Close to Food Lion and cottage is located on a street with traffic light which makes it easier to get onto bypass road. Plenty of seating and open floor plan. The deck was very nice with a covered portion over the table and chairs. I thoroughly enjoyed the rocking chairs! Would stay here again.

cute little bacon on the beach

This week, long day with my grandson and his best friend who just graduated high school. The house was more spacious than expected and everything that you would need for a stay was there. The house was clean towels were provided. The only thing I didn’t use was the grill because that was not clean, but that was fine. It’s a really nice neighborhood and only a short walk to the beach. We loved it.

Amazing property and location!

Overall cannot say good enough things about this property. The location is amazing, right near the beach. This is my second time staying and we hope to again. The house is perfect, clean and tidy and has a lot to offer in entertainment. From grilling to books, games and TV you will have a great time at this property. We called the property manager, and she was very friendly, polite, and had all the answers we needed. Will definitely stay there again.

Very convenient

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is conveniently located within a short walking distance of the beach. I also really liked that there's a grocery store (Food Lion) right by the house (a couple minute driving distance) where I could easily buy the items that I forgot like sunblocks or buy things that I didn't want to pack like a large watermelon, ice cream, etc. This little house had everything we needed for our stay including giant jenga blocks for kids! Had a very nice experience! Thank you!

We had a Great vacation

The house was easy to find upon arrival. It was clean. We loved the deck and the outdoor shower. It was a short walk and easy to get to the beach. We were concerned about not having a rail on the porch steps. It was hard for my 89 year old mom to get up and down the steps. All in all though, we had a great vacation.

End of Summer Getaway

We had a great stay at this unit. It is a short walk (approx. 2 blocks) from the beach, which was very convenient. The house was stocked with all the necessary kitchen supplies needed as well as games, blankets and towels. Our only issue was that the wifi coverage was sporadic. With that said, our contact was incredibly responsive in trying to find a solution. It was a great way to end the summer!
