About the host

Hosted by Krisha McCoy

Host profile image
Our family of seven lives in the Charleston area, and we enjoy spending time in both the beaches and mountains of NC with our kids and extended family.

My family built Twin Landings in 1993, and we have made incredible family memories there ever since, as have the many other families who have rented it over the years. Twin Landings is an oceanfront property, with two separate 4-bedroom houses that can be rented separately, or, when the top deck that connects the homes is opened up, a large group can rent both together. Our love of Twin Landings has grown into our small family business, Carolina Landings. We have acquired two more wonderful properties in Surf City: Surf Landing and Soundside Landing. Surf Landing is located on the second row in the S-curve, in the heart of Surf City. We love spending time here, where beach access is right across the street, and we are just a few steps from all of the fun restaurants and shops of Surf City. Soundside Landing is a waterfront home on the intracoastal in the Island Oaks neighborhood, almost directly across the island from Twin Landings. The views of the marsh and intracoastal waterway are incredible, and the private dock is perfect for launching a stand-up paddle board or kayak to explore. Beach access at Soundside Landing is a less than 5-minute walk away: directly across from the entrance of the neighborhood.

Our mountain property, Wolf Ridge, is a chalet-style cabin located in Murphy, NC and offers gorgeous views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The views are spectacular! Murphy is known as "the gateway to the Smoky Mountains." Our favorite thing to do is sit on the top deck, and watch the wildlife come from the woods into the grassy area below. We have seen deer, raccoons, rabbits, and even a bear! Hummingbirds and the colorful birds of North Carolina also regularly visit the deck. Coming late 2022 is The Hot Toddy Cabin in Blue Ridge, GA, which has 5 bedrooms and spectacular mountain and lake views.
