Clean, affordable & close to the beach

My family and I have never stayed at this location before, but we couldn’t have been more happy with our stay. The host is very attentive and happy to assist in any way. We normally try to find something on the beach, but this place is super close to beach access and the location is great. We will definitely be staying again. Thank you Katie!

Cozy Beach House

Waking up to sound of the ocean, seeing the Sun rise from the Atlantic is how each day was for us. Close enough for us to have our Marine son stay with us during his liberty, yet far enough to give him rest from the post. A well laid out house with access to the beach, restaurants, and stores.

Great property!

The house itself was clean and well stocked. The location was as good as it gets without actually being on the beach. Very short walk to the shore. Owners were fantastic at getting back to us in a timely manner when we had a question. I definitely recommend this house!

Perfect family beach house!

Highly recommended! Great location with a very short walk to the beach. The house has a great layout with plenty of room and spaces for everyone to relax. Outdoor spaces were great as well whether it be the front or back deck or under the house. The house was equipped with anything you need for a stay at the beach with family. If your a family that likes to cook, the kitchen has anything and everything you would need. A great time was had by all!

A house built for relaxation

Our vacation wouldn't have been complete without having a beautiful house to stay in near the beach, and we were not disappointed. Amazing countertops, spacious rooms, quiet and friendly neighbors, and a washer/dryer made everything feel perfect. The fishing poles and boogey boards in the storage room was the icing on the cake. We will definitely try to rebook this house again. Thank you to our hosts!!

Great location and beautiful renovated

Sitting on the porch you can see and hear the ocean. The beach access is very close and the beach is wide. Great boogie boarding during high tide and love the sandbar at low tide. We were impressed with how well the house was stocked with all the extra things you need like beach chairs, umbrella, toys, boards, soaps, plastic wrap etc. Every bed & furniture was comfortable. We had a few questions and the owner was incredibly fast and helpful. The house is in a great location, close to shopping and food. Definitely try out Shaka Taco and Topsail Steamer! This was a great fit for our 2 families of 4 (8 total people). Thank you!

Our stay wasn’t long enough!!

This property was way more than we needed it had four bedrooms, but it allowed my son and his wife to bring their dog. The beach access is a short walk through the backyard. There was storage filled with everything you will need for the beach! Actually we needed for nothing but our food, it was nice to have a kitchen filled with good cookware, and appliances! The Host Katie was quick to reply to any questions we had . She even left us a welcome package and fresh bouquet which we appreciated, thank you! Would we stay again? YES I wish we didn’t have to leave!!
