Thank you so much, Maggie!!! I’m glad to hear your family had a great time.
House was only one block from the beach and the house had everything we needed for our stay. Host was very communicative and the check in process was very easy. Would stay again!!

Thank you so much for your kind words, we would love to have you back!
The house was clean, the linens were very nice, and the beds were impressively comfortable for a VRBO. The location is bayside on the main road, so any outdoor activity has traffic noise to contend with but inside was quiet. Easy beach access and not too crowded. Bayside has a boat launch on same block. I think we may have been the first guests since the property changed hands so there were some minor issues which were dealt with promptly and are unlikely to affect future guests. Kitchen was incredibly well stocked with every appliance imaginable. The only drawback was the exterior wooden deck was old with lots of splintered wood and jutting nails so I would avoid bare feet. Thanks to the new owners for a really lovely stay.

Hi! We are Jeremy & Jessica Horton. This is our new Emerald Isle property. We have been hosting renters in Carolina Beach at our other beach property for 12 years. We are parents to a little girl and love spending time at the coast!
Why they chose this property
We love how quiet this location is, and the proximity to the water on both sides.
