Excellent Cottage

Would highly recommend to anyone. Was skeptical about staying at a place for 5 nights that allowed pets as we have never traveled with our dog. My fear was that places that allowed pets would be substandard. This was not the case. There was no evidence of any previous pets being on site. It was extremely clean. Had a nice yard and was exactly, if not better than described. The attention to details and the small stuff is what made this an exceptional place for us. Well thought out floor plan but kept the original cottage feel. Well stocked amenities, not just the basics as many places have. Good access to the beach. Great communication and response time from the the host. Had no issues but got the feeling if we did, they would be addressed quickly. Definitely will be returning knowing what I know now.

Wonderful pet friendly home!

The home was clean, well equipped, and roomy. It was a quick walk to the beach (under 3 minutes). The beach items at the house were very helpful, especially the beach wheel barrow. The owner was very responsive and next time we go to Kure we will definitely stay again.

Great 1st experience vacationing with pets!

This was my family's first trip with pets, and our first experience going through Vrbo. It was a wonderful mini-vacation! My two adult daughters went with us and took their dogs. The cottage was just the right size for 4 adults. The house was fully equipped with all the needed items for an enjoyable stay. Even a few surprises of household items I wasn't expecting! Everything was clearly labeled (light switches, etc.) which made it very easy to adapt to. Location to the beach was one block, so it was extremely convenient! If I had to suggest any improvement it would be to fence in the yard so those guests with pets could let their dogs out more freely. The owner was very reachable and courteous to us. I look forward to booking again in the future!

Winner winner, seafood dinner

This cozy cottage was perfect for our family of four (two kids). We’d stayed with extended family in Kure Beach lots of summers before Covid, always in larger rentals boasting bigger bedrooms, multiple bathrooms and hefty price tags, despite being several blocks off the beach. This time we went with smaller but closer to the beach and Mike’s place didn’t disappoint. Our lab loved hanging out in the backyard patio area or laying on the cool laminate flooring under a ceiling fan. Living room and kitchen were well-apportioned (better internet/streaming than our house!) and gave the place a feel much roomier than its square footage. Mike went out of his way to make our stay comfortable, popping over to help us figure out the Google Nest thermostat when we texted for help. It was nice to have a true local VRBO owner, rather than some corporate landlord with poor customer service. Mike had great suggestions about under-the-tourist-radar dinner spots and area activities. Highly recommended!
