We loved this 3 story home at Kure Beach! It was perfect for a large family event to see our oldest son graduate from UNC Wilmington! Home is a 1 block walk to the beach with grocery stores and beach shops nearby! Would definitely stay here again! Bring sheets, towels, toilet paper, and paper towels. Great hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, and newly finished patio!

We enjoyed the location of this property. It was situated just a few blocks from Kure Beach and the pier, making it very convenient. The neighborhood was also relatively quiet, which we appreciated and found to be one of the highlights of our stay.Unfortunately, the condition and cleanliness of the house were disappointing. Upon arrival, it was clear that the property had not been cleaned after the previous guests. We immediately notified the host and were informed that the cleaning company's manager was out of the country. While a cleaning crew was sent out quickly, the job appeared rushed. The dishwasher was still full of dirty dishes, the bathrooms were not properly cleaned, and the house was left with an overwhelming smell of cleaning products.Our biggest concern was the number of roaches we encountered throughout the stay. We saw them daily, primarily in the upstairs living area that included the kitchen and one of the bedrooms. Because of this, we had to take extra precautions when returning home, unloading our belongings outside, shaking everything out, and washing all linens and clothing to ensure we did not bring any pests back with us.The home's overall condition also needs attention. The laundry room blinds were hanging, the loveseat had a hole in it, and the outdoor shower door did not close from wear and tear.While the location is excellent, the property is in need of significant maintenance, renovation, deep cleaning and professional pest control.

Kure Beach getaway

This property was ideal for our needs. The only small bump was the beds weren't made when we arrived. I rented linens from the recommended company and their website stated the fee covered beds being made upon arrival. Not a big issue just thought you might want to know for future reference.

Great Family Get-Together Place

Our family get-together of 10 really enjoyed our stay. The location was private and quiet, while having close access to the beach. The owners were very responsive and accomodating to our requests. One of our littles accidentally left a stuffy at the rental, and John was able to find it and ship it out to us - we really appreciated the quick responses and helpfulness! We would definitely recommend a stay here and will be back!

Property had its ups and downs. Location was amazing. Property was not very clean when we arrived. We did our best to keep things clean and organized throughout the stay and still got charged with extra cleaning fees. The property in general was unkept and outdated.

Great house in a fantastic location!

If what you're looking for the glitz and trash of Myrtle Beach, stay away! But if what you want is a relaxing vacation, this is the place! Kure Beach is the perfect place to unwind and this house helps you do just that. John has always been great with making accommodations. Always in great condition and has everything you could need. Just a short walk to the water and pier, several local restaurants to choose and of course, Brit's Donuts! Cannot wait to go again next year!

Great Family Vacation House

This house was perfect for my family and my sister's family. There was plenty of space and the main living space was large enough for all of us! Not sure if it was my lack of reading about the house, but the top 3rd floor that has the queen bedroom is also were the kitchen, living room and dining room are too. I assumed the 3rd floor only had the one bedroom and bathroom. thanks for letting us stay at your house!

A Home Away from Home

This was absolutely a perfect pick for our family. We have been going to Kure for years and this was our favorite rental of the bunch. We definitely hope to enjoy it again. It's a block from the beach, so it was easy to come and go and leave our stuff on the sand. And the house is so spacious, we got to sleep in even though our early-rising kids didn't. And speaking of the beds, they were so comfortable we wanted to bring them home with us. We felt so at peace in this house we were content to stay in most nights. Couldn't say enough about it.

Group of 10 family vacation

This home was in a great location, quiet neighborhood and a short easy walk to the beach. We enjoyed having the use of both decks and the swings were great, the common area was perfectly laid out for a large family and we appreciate the use of the wagon and beach chairs. However, there was lack of communication prior to the trip, leaving us unaware that towels, toilet paper, paper towels and linens were not provided until a few hours before check-in.  So be aware you will need to provide these items for your trip.

Nice but could have been cleaner

Older property that could use a good cleaning and some fresh paint, new carpets and updates in the bedrooms. Although the kitchen is beautiful and has a lot of nice features and updates it had minimal supplies, pots that looked like they had been used over a campfire, and no sharp knives for cutting things like vegetables. If you’re looking for a large house with a nice amount of bedrooms and bathrooms and don’t necessarily care about aesthetics then this is a great place to stay!

This was a wonderful house to stay in accommodating 5 adults and 2 kids. There was plenty of space for everyone. It was a great location on a quiet road close to a beach access. The only complaint we all had is the living/kitchen area was on the 3rd floor. It took a few days for it to cool off. It made it worse if we cooked on the stove/oven. If the air was set to around 75 instead of 80, it may not have been as bad. Maybe if you have the cleaning crew set it to a lower temp after they clean if guests are suppose to arrive that day, that may help. The dishwasher wasn’t installed very well. It took us a few times to get it running. Also, having an ice maker/water would’ve been very convenient. We had to purchase at least 10 bags of ice for the week. Overall, the stay was pleasant. We mostly stayed on the beach 5-7 hours per day.
