We loved this property. Perfect location for us and dog friendly. Easy walk to beach. We didn’t get to enjoy the pool because of the weather, but it was very clean and we wished we could have. We would definitely love to stay here again.
Wanted to get in the sparkling pool, but it was too cold.
Enjoying the front porch!

Perfect Beach House for Small Group/Solo Travelers!

This was my second time staying at this property and I loved it just as much as the last! Happy to see the recent upgrades of a dishwasher and the gate on the porch (so fur babies or kiddos could safely enjoy the deck as well.)This beach house is truly a gem for solo or small group travelers wanting the amenities of a large beach house (ex pool) but an affordable price. Will probably be booking again for next year!

Comfortable Home Near Beach

Comfortable well-cared-for home very close to the beach. It provided everything I needed for an enjoyable two-month stay near family. It is on a very busy road, however, and the traffic noise, especially on weekends, was a bit unpleasant for me.

This little slice of paradise is in the perfect spot in Carolina Beach. Just a few steps to the ocean. The pool was a great bonus. We had everything we needed. The owners supplied us with everything from paper towels, tp, hand soap, dish/washing detergent to towels and sheets. We didn’t have to bring anything but ourselves and of course our pups. Thank you for sharing your place with us!
