House rules: I expect guests to behave like grown-ups: Don’t burn down the house Don't run around the neighborhood naked, keep it in house! :) Don't eat drippy food at the table There are several wastebaskets around the house: the toilet is not one of them”
1: Do not enter or attempt to enter the locked owners closet. This is the owners personal space, please respect this. 2: Most guests bring their own linens, We do however have linens available in upstairs linen closet. You may use what you need. Please only use what is needed, 1 towel set per guest and 1 sheet set per bed. If guest chooses to use our linens, they must be washed, dried folded and returned to the linen closet as they were found upon checkout. Failure to follow this rule will result in an additional cleaning fee charged to guest because we will have to hire a second cleaning crew to focus on linen washing while the main crew cleans the house in order for the home to be ready for checkin by the next guest. Please be respectful of this rule. We strive very hard to have the house in perfect condition in time for the next guest to check in without delays. Please respect the next guests time by not leaving dirty linens throughout the house. The cleanin window is very short and linens can take 2-3 hours to properly clean, sanitize, dry, fold and store. By booking this reservation you are acknowledging this rule and the additional fee of $225.00 that will be charged if not followed.
3: Any garbage that does not fit in the garbage bins must be removed from the property by guest.

Any excess trash that is left by guest that does not fit in the bins, a removal fee of $150.00 will be charged to the guest if we have to haul it away. If trash pickup is missed due to bins not being on the road, a $150.00 trash haul away fee will be charged to the guest.
4: It is not necessary to run the AC at 60 degrees when your entire family is out of the house for the day at the beach. We try to keep our nightly rate affordable so please help us keep it low by helping us not have $1,000 AC bills. :)
5: if you bring a dog, declare it when booking. a pet fee will apply. Also, pick up after your pet in the yard. If we have to scoop the poop for you after you check out, we don't do it for free.

Very good

Cannon’s Place was perfect for our family. The house was clean and everything was as described. There was plenty of room for our family. We loved sitting on the porch and walking around the neighborhood. The walk to the beach was short and it was a very nice public access. We loved the backyard area. I would definitely recommend staying here!

It is always a pleasure renting our home to amazing tenants! Thank you for your stay and perhaps you can stay at our home again in the future!
We stayed for our aniversary and loved everything about this. House was clean, street is quite, literally steps from the water. Huge house with plenty of space, nice bathrooms, close to everything so we decided to walk instead of drive. We will make this our yearlybtrip.

Thank you! We are so glad our cleaning crew did another amazing job and that you enjoyed your time at the beach! We look forward to hosting your family next summer!
Had a great time neighbors were very friendly especially the gentleman across the street. Very short walk to beach! The home was perfect great floor plan even though we spent most of our time on the front porch! Make sure you bring linens and laundry detergent and extra towels if your a big group like us. I somehow missed that so a bit annoying nobody wants to travel with sheets pillow cases and towels etc other than that it was great!!!!
10 stars! Beautiful home next to the beach. Great host!
From start to finish our family lived our stay. Home is larger than it seems in pictures. Home was immaculately clean, the owner was very reaponsive when we had questions and even ordered our family pizza delivery on checkin night out of the blue. Neighbors were great. Street was ama@ingly quite for a tpurist town. Beach was amazing. Home has plenty of sand toys for the kids , 2 gas grills for cooking out, comfortable patio furniture to relax at night. The worst part about our stay was leaving! Love this house !!!

Family gathering at beach
Hadn't been to Carolina Beach, so was not familiar with the layout. Picked this house as it appeared close to beach. Found that the beach nearest house was very shallow and we chose to walk about quarter of a mile to north to find the better beach area. Was disappointed that the beds described on Vrbo didn't match up with the actual sizes, which was problematic as we had to bring bedding with us (not supplied). Overall the house was workable and the time with family was great.

Beware of this renter. We bent over backwards for every single one of his groups requests no matter how small or trivial, we even overlooked the fact that they brought more people than they declared in the reservation and that we allow in our home. We communicated daily leading up to and during his trip. As you can imagine I'm surprised and let down by this review, as you can see by other reviews no one else who has stayed at our beach hone shares his opinions. Some people can never be satisfied.
We had a great time! The location is perfect. Very short walk to beautiful Carolina Beach. Lots of options for our large extended family. The kitchen is large and has everything you need. Two beautiful, spacious decks to enjoy. The whole house is clean and comfortable. It’s important to know there are no sheets or beach towels. This was a little challenging for us since we were flying from out of state. You’ll need to plan ahead. Lots of beach toys and a outdoor shower made trips to the beach even more fun. Highly recommend.

You were the perfect guests. Thank you for the glowing review, we hope your stay was incredible! Thank you for understanding on the sheets, but we are taking your feedback seriously amd rethinking about furnishing them for 2024 season. Beach towels are not normally included, but since you brought it up I think we will start supplying those . Thank you once again, you took great care of our home.

Could have been a dream vacation
The disappointing start was due to the unclean property, with dog hair on couches, smelly bedsheets, overflowing trash receptacles. Since we had committed, we had to do a cleaning of the entire home ourselves, and that's not something you like after paying a hefty Cleaning fees.

This is a shock to read as we went out of our way to accommodate you guys when you booked, cancelled, rebooked, asked to cancel again, and rebooked. You requested early access due to "special circumstances". We allowed that after making sure that your party was aware that the prior guests had just left and our cleaners did not have a chance to come in yet. You understood and we agreed for the early access. Your communication with me during the stay was nothing but great, so you can imagine I am surprised to read this review. I would like to make your next stay enjoyable because we want everyone to leave feeling like they had the best vacation of their lives. Can we offer you a complimentary stay?

Overall nice house
The house and its location are very nice. It’s comfortable and has an open floor plan which was great for large crowd.
There were a few things to highlight / improve. First, you have to bring your own sheets due to sanitary reasons. This was inconvenient and unusual. Also, the house lists the incorrect amount of beds and the bed sizing per room. For example, it says the master is a King when it’s actually a queen bed. It also suggests one room has seven twin beds when it has four beds. This matters when you have to bring your own sheets. If that could be updated, it would be helpful to future guests.

That's excellent feedback. We will make the necessary changes to the typo about the beds, I have never seen a room that could fit SEVEN beds so I apologize that that mistake was made and we will correct asap. That is the first time someone has brought that up so I am glad you did, or we would have continued to overlook it, thanks again! Thanks for understanding about the sheets, when a home is "pet" friendly such as ours, dog owners know how difficult it is to fully remove pet hairs from linens and we want to make sure we are sensitive to guests who can not lay their heads in someone else's pet hair when sleeping at night. While it is inconvenient, the feedback we have received directly from guests appreciating the piece of mind of how clean their sheets and pillowcases are for a great nights sleep is the reason we continue course. Going into the cold and flue season now it is even more important that we maintain the home in the most sanitary ways possible. I don't discount that feeling of some that it is inconvenient, but for the value we bring for a great house, in a great location at a great price the feedback on that has leaned more heavily in the positive direction. Thank you again for your stay and I hope we can host you again in the future!
We had a great time! Loved both the property and location. We had 9 in our group (5 adults, 4 kids) and there was plenty of room. Less than a 5 minute walk to the beach which was not at all crowded despite peak season. Property was clean and manager very responsive. Would stay here again 👍🏽
We enjoyed our stay, the house was clean and looked exactly as shown. We had plenty of room and the neighbors were friendly. Just a short walk to the beach and short drive to the boardwalk. Very nice place
The owner of this property decided to take a vacation and not leave ANY information regarding accessing the property. I called repeatedly, left messages on VRBO over several days and never heard from the owner. VRBO didn't know how to handle this as they couldn't reach the owner either. No instructions regarding entry were provided. Repeated requests throughout the week for the owner to call were ignored. Owner finally let me know he and his family were on vacation and without phone service. Also, a cargo lift was advertised as being available for use, it was locked up and unavailable until later in the week. Not any help with the unloading process! Owner made me agree to all kinds of conditions before he texted me the lock combinations. Seems like he would respond to the items he wanted to and ignored the rest. The house is great. Owner indicated he was new to VRBO and didn't understand the process with VRBO. Pretty poor excuse if you signed up and were told what was required of you as an owner and manager of your property before you made it available. Like I said, great house, but you are on your own for any communication with the owner.

I let this guest know many times before his stay the rules for the cargo lift. The restrictions are in place for safety reasons and we were very clear and upfront about the do's and donts. As for timely responses, we were out of country and when the guest had a questions, due to time zone differences and being new to the site we did not get the questions most times until the next day and he did not get our replies until the next day. I did provide the guest my direct contact information but he chose not to use it which is okay, but he did have that option available to him. I'm sorry to ready this review as it does not reflect properly on the home or any other guests experiences.

We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. The toilet was clogged and we dispatched a plumber who was unable to reach you while you were at the beach.
The house was perfect for our family and 2 dogs. It is very dog friendly, with nice fenced backyard area and gated front and back porches for them to play on. Stocked well with beach chairs. We will definitely consider staying here again.

So happy that you enjoyed your time at the beach in our home!
Our family has stayed at Carolina Beach in the past and this trip was short notice. Paul's property was better than we expected. We where surprised how close to the beach it was (3 min walk), clean and well taken care of. Paul responded to texts right away and was available for phone calls if needed. The permanent residents were very friendly and fun to talk to. Overall we where very pleased and will reach out to rent this property again.
We loved this property! The house was perfect and provided us a great place to stay on our vacation. It was a close easy walk to the beach and had everything we needed. We are already talking about booking it again!
