About this property
2 Blocks from Beach, Dog Friendly w/ no dog fees!, Hot Tub, Fenced Yard
Welcome to your new favorite vacation home, The Salty Dog ReTreat at Kure Beach, NC! This spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath, dog friendly home sleeps 8 people comfortably in a quiet cul-de-sac less than 2 blocks away from the beach with private beach parking and access. Enjoy the covered decks on 2 levels and fastest WiFi for those working from home or e-learning with kids. Relax in the fenced-in back yard with a hot tub pavilion equipped with an outdoor bar, gas grill, and outdoor shower.
When you arrive at the Salty Dog Retreat, you'll have plenty of parking with access to 2 garages and 2 driveways (enough space for 4 vehicles). Inside the garage, you'll find a ping pong table and beach chairs. If you don't want to walk the 2 blocks to the beach, you'll have free parking and private access to the beach and bathroom onsite.
The first level will bring you to the 3 bedrooms, each with Roku TVs, Sealy Posturepedic mattresses and fresh linens (sheets, blankets, and bath towels), available to you at no additional charge. The master bedroom has a king bed with a private bathroom and access to the deck. The second bedroom has a queen bed and access to a balcony that overlooks the backyard. The third bedroom has bunk beds (full over full) that can sleep 4 people, with access to a second balcony.
The top floor of the home boasts an open floor plan living area for fun, family gatherings. Everyone can enjoy the Roku TV, gas fire place, books to read on one of the covered decks to to take to the beach, board games and a variety of DVDs. WiFi is available to use the Smart TVs to stream popular apps. (Guests must provide their own login information. Cable television is not available.) Enjoy a chef’s kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz counter tops, and nearly every cooking tool you’ll need. We offer both a drip coffee pot and Kuerig coffee maker, but coffee is not provided.
Up to 2 dogs are welcome (no dog fees!). Breed restrictions apply. Between April 1st and September 30th, the Town of Kure Beach does not allow dogs on the beach; however, Carolina Beach allows leashed dogs before 9am and after 5pm. You're able to take dogs on the beach at any time to Freeman Park and Fort Fisher State Recreation area.
Hot tub is professionally cleaned, sanitized and balanced after each guest.
Check-in is after 4:00PM and check-out is before 10:00AM. To ensure the safety of our guests and due to enhanced cleaning protocols, we are unable to accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs at this time.
We provide enough dish soap and paper goods to get your vacation started, but the guests will be responsible for any additional dish soap, paper towels, and/or toilet paper.
