Lakefront cottage bliss

This is the 2nd time my girlfriend and I have stayed at Susan's cottage. I really believe this the best of both worlds. The backyard has access to the lake and the screened in porch on the front and back is a dream. The flea market is right around the lake and a nice activity to partake in. The best part is the walking distance to the beach. I walked mostly twice a day, no parking worries is a godsend. The house itself has pretty much all that you need for an house that was built so long ago. Authentic beach cottage feel. We have communicated certain improvement opinions and Susan is very receptive to them. We appreciate her hospitality and will be back as much as possible.

What a CUTE little beach home!!

The house was so clean and the beds were like sleeping on a cloud. Plenty of towels and everything else you will need for a beach stay. Super close to beach access, shops and restaurants/bars. The owner is super sweet and very helpful. We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect for a girl's weekend getaway!

Family cottage charm passed down through the years but updated interior. Very clean and bright! Location perfect for enjoying the lake and the ocean. The weekend provided a special setting to catch up and continue a 50+ year friendship. Susan was very attentive and made the check in and stay very nice. Thank you Susan.

Quaint cottage on the lake

Very quaint cottage where you can feel the history of family time enjoyed there while enjoying up to date cozy beach decor. Very comfortable. Great location to beach, boardwalk and craft Market and outdoor movie by the lake. Love the feel of this house and the 2 screened porches. Owner was fantastic! Wagon was very helpful, as was the clothes line on porch and multiple hooks in the jack n jill bathroom. Towels and bedding were clean and soft. Bedrooms could use some curtains for room darkening as well as a mattress that doesn't dip in the back bedroom when 2 people are sharing it. Overall, we loved the cottage. Had everything we needed and will likely book a stay there again

Perfect Beach Cootage

This adorable 2BR cottage is perfect for a couple who appreciate a nostalgic feel plus modern amenities. Susan was an outstanding host and has decorated the house beautifully. Overlooking Carolina Lake with backyard access to a well-lit walking path, the cottage was just a couple of blocks from beach access and plenty of Boardwalk activities. We have relatives in Wilmington so we plan to book this place whenever we plan on visiting. Highly recommended!
