About this property

Cozy Waterfront Home! 2BR/2BA Large covered deck*fishing dock*floating boat dock

WiFi internet available! Family friendly and perfect for Fishing & Boating - 4 miles from Holden Beach by car and about 3 miles by boat. This recently renovated house was originally a shrimp house for local fisherman to sell and process their catch. It's now a beautiful 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom house with a large living/dining/kitchen area. Because of the history of the shrimp house this home is one of the only homes that actually sits on the bank of the Lockwood Folly River. Spacious covered back deck over the water with a uncovered dock on the front that is perfect for fishing. There is also a connected floating dock for your use. Please note that property has 3 additional docks and a boat lift but are NOT part of the VRBO. The Fish House is centrally located between historic Wilmington, NC and exciting Myrtle Beach, SC.

Sleeps 6 with one queen bed in the master bedroom (which overlooks the river), one queen bed and twin bunk beds in the second bedroom. It has a large farm style dining table with additional seating at a large central bar. Windows line the living room wall so that you can enjoy the bird watching, dolphin swimming, and sunrises all from the comfort of the couch!

Bring your fishing pole or your boat as the Fish House is located on the Lockwood Folly River about a mile and a half from the Intracoastal Waterway. The Lockwood Folly Inlet is situated between Oak Island and Holden Beach and has direct access to the Atlantic Ocean! The Fish House has a large parking area if you do bring a boat and is only a half of a mile from a boat ramp. There is however a fee to use this boat Lauch. There is also a fish cleaning station and outdoor shower right off the floating boat dock!

Please be aware that there are three piers down from the floating dock that are used by the owners of the property, they can be seen in the pictures. These three piers and boat lift are private and are not part of the VRBO. We ask that all guests limit their usage to the one floating dock. The owners occasionally park on the far edge of the lot away from the house and access their boat by the steps in the side yard. This is far enough away from the house that it should not be disruptive. There are also two cameras on this property for security measures, one on the parking lot and one on the piers. *Please note that we are in a coastal community with hurricanes being a threat from 6/1 thru 11/30. Peak months mid August thru mid October with September being the most active month. We have a no refund policy 14 days out. We encourage you to purchase travel insurance to cover you in the event of any weather related conditions that will prevent you from experiencing your stay at our home. We do not allow guests at our property when a hurricane watch has been issued with a mandatory evacuation for coastal and low lying areas. This is for the safety of our guests and the need for us to secure our property. If a hurricane watch develops during your stay you may be required to leave. We do stress that you purchase travel insurance because no refunds or credits will be issued.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We absolutely loved this rental and will definitely be back soon. Great place for fishing, we caught flounder, lots of croaker, and trout. We saw dolphins 2 of the days we were there. The house had everything we possibly needed. Great location, not a far drive to the beach. By far, one of our favorite places we have stayed!

The location of the house is great and it's very clean. However, here are some cons...it would have been nice to have gotten a message or text when the house was ready on check-in day. I messaged the host when we got there and received a message back an hour and a half later (by then we had already made the decision to just go in).The bathrooms are really small. There are no closets or a place to hang your clothes. The tv in the living room is too small for that big room (if sitting across the room you can't hardly see or hear it). Since they took out the big, comy sectional sofa and replaced it with two uncomfortable plastic sofas they should replace those two chairs with some comfortable recliners.

Thank you for choosing to book with us! We were delighted to host your stay this past week! We are sad to hear though that you feel we only earned 3 stars. We always strive to have our guest have a 5 star stay. My apologies on the late text back to you upon your arrival. I see your text came in at 2:16 pm and didn’t get it until around 3pm due to being in a Dr. appointment, which check is 3pm. I did however respond as soon as seeing it at 3:14(58 minutes later), again my apologies. We know you mentioned a number of things that didn’t meet your expectations and know everyone has personal preferences. We did remove the old sectional last year( which was old and worn out) to add couches that face the water because most people love this view the best! Our home is small so unfortunately our bathrooms are too, but fortunately we are able to have lots of living and kitchen space as a trade off! We have owned this place quite a few years now and we are always looking for ways to improve upon. It. We will take your suggestions into consideration on the things we can however change. Once again thank you for booking with us and taking time to review your stay!

This was our second stay and we have already booked a third. It feels like our home away from home. My husband has mobility issues and this home is perfect for him. We take a rollator (walker) for indoors and also one for the deck. He uses a cane for the few steps to deck. Beds are incredibly comfortable, kitchen well stocked....even more so as I contributed a collapsible steamer and a mesh drainer! There were a few nuisance no see um's in the evening but bug spray did the trick. Lots of harmless carpenter bees were fun to watch, they don't sting as they are too busy being bees. We caught whiting and croaker but not enough crabs to bother. We added weights to the bottom of the crabpot to keep it from drifting. We used the fake orange cut bait and it worked, shrimp won't stay on the line.
