Whether it’s a trip to the beautiful beach, or pulling up a lounger poolside. If weather happens to not be cooperating….a perfect spot for cuddling up with a blanket and sipping hot cocoa in theater room. Plenty of yard for little ones to run and play. Maybe even a fire in the pit, after dinner. Full access to home, with exception of garage and attic. Large fenced in backyard. Saltwater pool(not heated)(11’x20’)

We loved our stay at this festive Christmas-themed house! It was spotless, cozy, and decorated so beautifully to keep you in the Christmas spirit all year round. The owners thought of everything—tons of amenities, games, and great spaces to relax and enjoy. It was the perfect spot to make memories, and we’d absolutely stay again!

This was the best experience we’ve had when staying in someone’s else’s home. The owners have thought of everything someone would need in their vacation. This home is so beautiful and welcoming. The area is perfect. Super close to all the stores and beaches. My family is looking to returning next year.

It was a perfect stay. We fell in love with the house and really enjoyed the pool and movie theater. We went to the state park very close by, the aquarium, the Kure Beach pier, and miniature golfing to name a few things. We loved the Christmas theme and the one thing that we all agreed upon is that we need to stay longer next time. Maryjo and hubby were the perfect hosts.

Perfect spot for family vacation!

We had an incredible stay here! The house might be even cleaner than the pictures indicate. It is spotless and so well appointed. The outdoor space is huge with so much to do. We might make this a yearly trip!

The host was available at all times - no question was too small. The amenities were numerous between any and all cookware, spices, electronics, and sound machines. The decor was adorable and fit perfectly - a tree in every room. The theater room was the highlight. The outdoor area was spacious with wonderful sitting areas all around the house. Location of home is ideal - close enough to the beach and shopping spots. Overall, a wonderful girls’ weekend thanks to this beautiful home and its wonderfully helpful host. Will definitely return with my family in the future. Thank you MJ!

Host profile image
I’m originally from a small town upstate NY…been down south since 2000, and couldn’t be happier.

Why they chose this property

We choose Carolina beach because it was our goal for the past 25 years. Such a great little island. From any spot on the island, it’s an easy walk or bike ride our beautiful sandy beach.

What makes this property unique

Who doesn’t love the magical feeling of Christmas. I believe Christmas feeling is part of the heart, and staying here you just feel that every day.
