We had the best mother daughter trip!!! Sooo close to the beach-just load up the wagon and walk across the street to the beach! The house is also within walking distance to so many restaurants and the boardwalk. Communication with owner was excellent and the house had everything we needed. We loved Carolina Beach!

My husband was totally surprised and very happy we chose this location. Cant rave enough about how clean and organized it was. It had everything you needed to cook or fix anything you wanted. Nice refrigerator and stove. Clean, well equipped, and couldn't ask for better place to stay. Cant wait for next year!

We really enjoyed this stay! The place was clean, plenty spacious for three of us, and well-located to walk to the beach, boardwalk, and lots of other stores and restaurants. We loved being able to bring our dog too. The kitchen was big and well-stocked, but there wasn’t anything to run the dishwasher with, which was fine for a couple of days but would have been good to have longer term. No soap, shampoo, or conditioner either (which I don’t expect all Vrbos to have, it’s just nice when they do!).Overall, we would stay again and just be prepared to pick up a few things if we were staying longer.

This place was absolutely amazing! The house was very clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a great stay. Being only about 50 steps from the beach was a huge bonus and made it so convenient to enjoy the ocean whenever we wanted. The host was friendly, responsive, and very easy to get in touch with throughout our stay.The only recommendation I would make is to consider adding some solar lights in the backyard to provide a little more lighting at night. Other than that, everything was wonderful. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Perfect spot

This was the perfect spot for staying at the beach without technically staying on the bea ch. We were very close to the beach access, and it was perfect that the house had beach supplies for us to use.

This place is a wonderful location! We knew it would be a quick walk to the beach but were pleasantly surprised that you can literally see the beach entrance as soon as you step out the door. Love that the secondary bathroom has a tub since we have younger kids, and the outdoor shower was great for rinsing off sand. Beware though - it's in full view of a main road so we had one parent hold up a towel while the other sprayed off the kids, because we could get all the sand out with their swimsuits still on. We did find that it seemed not quite fully prepared upon our arrival. The top bunk had no linens on it so we had to make it ourselves, and we found the floor mats for the secondary bathroom down in the garage. There was also a different family name on the welcome board, so it appeared the final setup just wasn't completed before we arrived. These were not huge deals to us, but for some people putting the sheets onto a large top bunk (which required being fully on the top bunk) would be very difficult. The kids could have shared the bottom bunk if necessary but of course they both wanted a turn sleeping up top!

Cozy and convenient

We loved everything about the house and the location. Just steps from the beach was wonderful. The house was well cleaned and fully stocked. The house was so much more than we expected. The host Lisa was very nice and communicated very well. We intend to come back....

We regret that this guest chose to leave the property early. For clarity, the home was inspected during their stay and found to be safe, habitable, and exactly as described in the listing. There were no flooding or safety issues at the property or surrounding streets. VRBO reviewed the situation and confirmed that no refund was due. While weather can sometimes affect the beach experience, the property itself was in good condition, and we remain committed to addressing any concerns promptly for our guests. The sun even came out the next day ☀️

Amazing!!

The PERFECT location and a very comfortable spot!! The owners are so helpful and responsive, and although you are not "on the beach", the access is literally steps away! Nice side street that is quiet and so close to everything. I honestly considered not sharing our review so we could keep this gem to ourselves LOL - we had the great stay and will definitely return!!
